Help With Ribbon Bar

I’m not sure if I identified these ribbons correctly but if I did I would assume this is a fabricated bar due to the randomness of the ribbons. Can someone please review for correctness? I picked this up at the Great Western Show in Dallas, Texas last weekend for $12.00. Both the ribbons and backing are new.

1. Order of Red Banner
2. Order of Patriotic War 1st Class
3. Medal for Valor
4. Medal for Combat Service
5. Capture of Berlin
6. ???
7. Defense of Kiev
8. Defense of Odessa
9. Capture of Koenigsberg
10. Defense of Leningrad
11. Liberation of Prague

I have another bar too that I will post later after I try to figure out what ribbons are on it. I think they are labor awards and I am having a difficult time trying to identify.

I would like to say that no6 is liberation of warshawa and the one you think is defense of leningrad i would say that it is for the defense of Sevastopol or the partisan 2:class.
But to the ribbon:
I think that there are to much space between the medal stripes r what i should call it...
I also think that the medals are in the wrong order but im not shore.
The position of the "partisan" medal would indicate that there is the sevastopol medal.

I leave this to a more experienced collector

I think the ribbon bar is made up, as you can see no wear on most of the ribbons, not so likely combination etc.
