Italeri 6045 - 1/72 Fallschirmjaeger figures: Builder overview

The Fallschirmjaeger, the German paratroopers of World War II, played a key role in airborne operations such as the invasion of Crete in 1941. This Italeri 6045 1/72 scale set gives modellers a chance to recreate those historic uniforms and equipment in compact scale, suitable for display or diorama scenes.

Why model these paratroopers?

Known for their discipline and distinctive kit, these troops are a favourite subject for military modellers. In 1/72 scale the figures keep recognisable detail while letting you build an entire scene without demanding huge display space.

Model quality and presentation

The moulded poses and equipment detail of this Italeri release make it accessible to beginners while still offering refinements for experienced painters. Finished figures work well on a small vignette or as part of a larger WWII collection.

Specifications

Plastic cement works best for assembly. For colour, acrylic and enamel miniature paints are both suitable; thin layers preserve the fine sculpted detail.
Yes. With careful trimming, repositioning of limbs and a bit of putty or pinning you can alter gestures and group figures to create dynamic scenes.
