This item is an accessory for a toy minifigure, consisting of a flag mounted on a small black flagpole with a base.
The flag is a red banner featuring the hammer and sickle, which is the most famous international symbol of Communism. It is most closely associated with the Soviet Union (USSR), as this emblem was the central element of its national flag.
The design is highly symbolic:
- The red field is the traditional color of the communist and socialist movements, representing revolution.
- The yellow hammer and sickle emblem represents the unity of the two primary classes of the proletariat: the hammer symbolizes the industrial workers, and the sickle symbolizes the agricultural peasants (farmers).
The flag piece itself is a small, printed plastic tile. This accessory is perfect for representing a Soviet soldier or Communist Party member, or for use in historical dioramas of the 20th century, particularly the World War II and Cold War periods.
