Italeri Roman Infantry 1:72 Figure Model Kit

Italeri Roman Infantry Ist-IInd cent. brings the structure of a Roman legion into 1:72 scale with an assembly kit centered on standardized troops from the period after the Marian reform. The set contains 34 infantry figures and 1 horseman, giving enough bodies to arrange a marching file, a formed line or a command-focused scene with visible rank contrast. Historical detail drives the sculpting. Centurions are marked out by leg guards, a vine-stick and a helmet with a transverse crest, while the legionnaires wear lorica hamata reinforced on the shoulders. Semi-rectangular shields define the look of the formation and help create the dense visual rhythm associated with Roman infantry. The equipment layout also reflects the period described in the set: 2 throwing pila, the gladius and the pugio complete the armament carried by the soldiers. The unassembled parts arrive as a model kit intended for builders aged 14 Years and up, with an indicated assembly time of 600 minutes. On the workbench, the figure mix supports careful painting of armor, shields and command markings across a larger group rather than a single display piece. Once assembled, the set suits historical dioramas, tabletop army scenes or shelf displays that focus on Roman military organization, equipment and formation drill.
