Background and modelling interest

The Alpini units earned their reputation operating in harsh terrain and saw action on multiple fronts during World War II. This kit captures the look of the mountain infantry and works well for scenes referencing the Italian divisions that served on the Eastern Front. It is aimed at builders who value historically informed small-scale figures.

As a 1/72 scale plastic assembly, the parts require careful trimming and glueing. Once painted, the finished figures make a compact but detailed display, suitable for tabletop dioramas or shelf presentations. The kit is a solid pick for modellers who enjoy weathering and small-scale painting challenges.
