Italeri 1/72 2nd Ww American Infantry

Italeri’s 1/72 2nd WW American Infantry (part number HC-6120) captures U.S. Army soldiers from the Normandy landings, ideal for bringing World War II scenes to life in small-scale dioramas, displays, or tabletop settings. The figures are depicted with authentic period gear to reflect frontline troops of the era.

Historical Context

The set represents U.S. infantry during Operation Overlord, notably the 1st and 29th Infantry Divisions that went ashore on 6 June 1944 at Omaha Beach. The poses and equipment evoke the intense combat of D-Day and provide a strong basis for historically themed vignettes and scenes.

Typical Equipment Represented

• M1 Garand rifle
• B.A.R. automatic rifle
• Thompson submachine gun
• 7.65 mm Browning machine gun

Produced by Italeri, this 1/72 scale set focuses on period-correct weaponry and soldier kit for convincing WWII American infantry modelling.
