Italeri 1/72 D.A.K. Infantry WWII - Afrika Korps in Scale

The Italeri 1/72 D.A.K. Infantry WWII kit recreates an iconic chapter of World War II with finely modelled figures of the Deutsche Afrika Korps under General Erwin Rommel. This set gives collectors and hobbyists a chance to study North Africa operations and represent troops from key engagements with realistic poses and gear.

North Africa Campaign Accuracy

Following Italy's loss of Cyrenaica in early 1941, German forces arrived to support operations under Rommel. The Afrika Korps helped retake areas like Cyrenaica and Tobruk and pushed into Egypt before supply limits and Allied pressure forced a withdrawal toward Tunisia by 1943. This kit lets modellers recreate those events with attention to historical detail.

Building Notes and Display Potential

This 1/72 Italeri set is aimed at builders who value period uniform detail and believable dioramas. The figures are sculpted to reflect authentic kit and clothing of Afrika Korps soldiers, offering satisfying assembly and paint options that make the finished display suitable for a wider World War II collection.

Specifications

  • Scale - 1/72
  • Material - durable plastic
  • Assembly - glue required
  • Paint - optional for extra realism
The kit contains multiple infantry figures representing different combat and support poses suitable for a small diorama. Check the parts layout on the sprues for exact counts.
Basic modelling tools like sprue cutters, a hobby knife, fine files and plastic cement are sufficient. Tweezers and small brushes help with detail work.
The set is supplied as unpainted plastic. Painting is optional and recommended to unlock the full level of historical detail; refer to standard Afrika Korps colour schemes when painting.
