Italeri 1/72 Teutonic Knights - Detailed Figures for Modellers

This Italeri 1/72 Teutonic Knights kit presents a compact, accurate representation of medieval knightly figures. The set is aimed at hobbyists who enjoy historical modelling and figure painting, offering clear sculpting and era-appropriate equipment to research and finish to display standard.

Origins and Historical Role

The Teutonic Knights began as a crusading military order during the Third Crusade and later became influential across parts of Eastern Europe, including Prussia and the Baltic. Their distinctive white surcoat with a black cross, endorsed in the early 1200s, is a key identifier. Although their power waned after conflicts such as the Battle of Lake Peipus in 1242, the order remains a focal point of medieval study and modelling interest.

What Model Builders Appreciate

This Italeri kit captures the characteristic armor and insignia of the Teutonic Knights at 1/72 scale, balancing fine detail with manageable assembly. It is suitable for display vignettes or dioramas and gives modellers the chance to practice weathering, layering, and small-scale brushwork to enhance realism.
