Iron Felix, labeled as "Iron Fenix" (if only).
Salvador Allende nearly exactly how he looked in his last picture, but labeled just "Mr President"

Awesome Stalin, i searched there for Stalin, Lenin and Tito but only minifigures clearly based on real socialists i found are those two above.
Oh in the same link i posted there's also Lidya Litviak, as "White Lily", first female fighter ace:
Nice, definitely handpainted with some green stuff on his head visible too.
No idea, i'm not even really into Lego, from what i seen it's pretty expensive in Poland, so the best option would be probably to buy something similar on aliexpress and convert like in your picture. Socialist figures would be mostly pretty easy, since they don't involve any weird or huge pieces (though it would be fun to convert Kakashi to Stalin).
The history of Chinese Lego is btw really fun. Lego for years hesitated to build a factory in China, but ultimately stonks syndrome got them and they did. Shortly after, Chinese started to produce strangely similar bricks which are only minimally different by plastic composition, just enough to avoid lawsuit. Since then they also expanded offer on miniblocks (75% of size of ordinary) and microblocks (50% and still look great but dammit they make the fingers hurt).
And most importantly, they got not only copies of many rare lego sets but also many sets Lego never had, like the military including Soviet ones (tanks, planes and helis are relly good). They also make some from animes, movies etc, yesterday i seen complete model of Thousand Sunny from One Piece with all crew or the famous Pirate Ship from old Lego, but even bigger.
Probably for the same reasons any other corpo is sitting silent about China:
