For a cheap way to get started, use soft plastic 20 mm figures (Airfix, 
Revell, Italaeri etc.) Quite extensive ranges for the line troops of 
the major powers. Well sculpted figures (though slimmer than many metal 
minis, which are too chunky IMHO). 

Main problems are that many gamers don't like the "light" feel of the 
figures and that the paint can flake off thin items like rifles. But 
there are painting techniques to minimize this problem. 

The same manufacturers produce ranges of compatible vehicles.
