Pegasus Bridge 1:72 Battle Set Model Kit

Pegasus Bridge 1:72 Battle Set Model Kit brings the D-Day airborne assault into a single large-scale diorama project built around an MDF laser cut bridge. The scene draws on the night action of 5 to 6 June 1944, when the crossing over the Orne River near Ouistreham became a decisive objective in Operation Overlord. The set combines British paratroopers, German infantry, 3 German guns, an Opel Blitz and a Kdf.1 Kubelwagen to create a layered battlefield with troops, transport and artillery in one composition. The bridge acts as the visual centrepiece, with its raised structure, railings and control section giving the layout a strong architectural focus. Battlefield accessories add further terrain detail for road approaches, defensive positions and staging around the crossing. With 50 figures in the set, formations can be arranged across the bridge deck, beside the river approach or around the gun positions to build a scene with clear movement and opposing lines. The 600 minute assembly time marks this as a substantial modelling project rather than a quick build. Painting and finishing can be directed toward uniforms, vehicles, artillery and bridge surfaces to give each section of the diorama its own character. Once completed, the 1:72 scale layout suits shelf display, historical scene building and tabletop setups centred on one of the most recognised bridge assaults of the Normandy campaign.
