Tamiya 1/48 WWII Famous General Set - Modeller notes

The Tamiya 1/48 WWII Famous General Set supplies well-proportioned figures for hobbyists focused on historical accuracy. The miniatures capture classic uniform shapes and poses suitable for museum-style or tabletop dioramas.

Leaders represented in the set

This set portrays five key commanders: German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, American Generals George S. Patton and Douglas MacArthur, British General Bernard Montgomery, and American General Dwight D. Eisenhower. Two figures per commander give scope for staging different command scenarios.

Scene-building and placement advice

Engineered to complement Tamiya 1/48 kits, these figures fit into command tents, vehicle platforms and roadside vignettes. They work well alongside vehicles like the U.S. 1/4-ton Light Vehicle or the Kommandeurwagen German Steyr Type 1500A to create believable period scenes.

Yes. With careful painting and fine detailing, they hold up well for cabinet display or photographic work at 1/48 scale.
Absolutely. Small resin or metal accessories can add realism, especially for equipment, binoculars, or maps held by the figures.
The parts are typical injection-moulded plastic. Handle thin elements like hands and map cases with care and use a fine amount of glue to avoid excess where joints meet.
