The figures were originally released as 6190, Moscow 1941 infantry.

However, those overcoats weren't taken out of the frontline. You could choose either midwar (dark grey paint) or later (dark yellow). In dark yellow, having the setting in either winter of 43-44 or 44-45 would not be out of the question.
