Italeri 6081 - 1/72 Napoleonic Wars Prussian Cavalry Model Kit - Prussian Dragoons Figure Set  [IT-6081S]

Prussian cavalry figures from Leipzig in 1/72 scale

This kit recreates a dramatic episode from the Battle of Leipzig. In that campaign General Yorck led Prussian Dragoons in a bold charge against French formations, and this Italeri set captures those light horsemen with attention to period kit, including their oilcloth-covered headgear used for campaign work.

Why historians and modellers pick this set

Beyond assembly, the kit offers a hands-on way to explore a turning point in the Napoleonic Wars. The Prussian cavalry helped shift the balance of alliances in Europe, and model builders can stage scenes that reflect that influence.

Detail, scale and modelling challenges

Italeri provides finely moulded figures that reflect authentic uniform details. At 1/72 scale the parts balance detail with manageable size, giving modellers an engaging painting and assembly project that rewards careful work.
