Chinese Northeast Army – Custom Printed Brick Block Figure

This image displays a set of three toy minifigures from a series representing the Chinese Northeast Army (东北军, Dōngběi Jūn). This was a powerful military force during the Warlord Era of the Republic of China (c. 1920s-1930s), which governed Manchuria under the command of Zhang Xueliang. All three figures wear the distinctive blue-grey uniform of the Northeast Army and feature the same shield-shaped arm patch, but each represents a different role and is uniquely detailed. The items in the picture are the three minifigures, shown from left to right:

1. The first figure is an infantryman, possibly a grenadier or assault soldier. He wears a unique style of field cap and has extensively detailed printed webbing that includes holders for stick grenades.
2. The central figure is an officer. His rank is clearly indicated by the ornate printed gold epaulettes on his shoulders and an officer-style belt. His head print, with a prominent mustache and a scar, gives him the character of a veteran commander.
3. The third figure is another infantryman, distinguished by his Brodie-style helmet. This figure also includes a whimsical and non-historical detail: a printed sandwich or hamburger tucked into his belt pouch.
