Italeri 6046 1/72 American infantry figure set with authentic kit

The Italeri 1/72 WWII American Infantry kit captures the look of U.S. ground troops from World War II in a compact scale. Representing elements of the 1st Infantry Division, the set references real campaigns such as Operation Torch and the Normandy landings while focusing on uniform and equipment accuracy.

Equipment included and accuracy notes

The kit supplies the principal small arms and support weapons seen with US infantry. It includes the M1 Garand rifle, B.A.R. automatic rifle, the M3 "Grease Gun" submachine gun and a Bazooka, enabling historically appropriate loadouts for late war actions like the Ardennes and the push into Germany.

Collector and modeller advantages

Fine moulding and true-to-scale proportions make this kit appealing for collectors and diorama builders. The figures are well suited to display alongside 1/72 vehicles and terrain, allowing accurate scene building from mid to late WWII.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Assembly time varies by skill level; expect a few hours for careful trimming, test-fitting and gluing. Painting and finishing will add more time depending on the level of detail desired.
Figures come in pre-sculpted poses. Some pose adjustments are possible by careful cutting and repositioning, but this requires modelling skill and the right adhesives.
Layered painting with base coats, washes and highlights works well on 1/72 figures. Use fine brushes and thin paints, then seal with a matte varnish to protect the finish.
