I hope we will have
Vostok,
Voskhod,
Soyuz 7K-OK,
Soyuz LOK,
LK lander, &
Salyut (that one is an early space station and is probably, like
Mir - it's not an acronym, it means "Peace" in Russian - more for Episode 2). Else it would be unfair and biased from an historical point of view.
Also, in other hardware, the essential seem IMHO to be :
upper stages versions for the R-7, and of course the
N-1. Also, I'm surprised that
Luna E-3, the first probe to transmit pictures of the Moon "far side", is not there amongst the variety of others.
We already have the
Proton-K (UR-500) and it sure looks very good, I'd like to have more opportunities to use it !

Well, space stations would imho be very, very good candidates for episode 2, especially since it might give the soviets some historical-based edge over NASA (we wouldn't want things to get too one-sided imho).
