This Italeri kit depicts Prussian cavalry at the Battle of Leipzig, where General Yorck's dragoons engaged French troops. The figures show period equipment, including the oilcloth head cover used for campaign protection.
Assembling these figures provides a tangible connection to a pivotal moment in the Napoleonic Wars. The Prussian cavalry influenced the conduct of the campaign, and the kit allows modellers to represent that historical role.
The moulding captures uniform and equipment features appropriate to the era. At 1/72 scale the figures require precise painting and careful assembly, making this a satisfying project for modellers interested in historical fidelity.
