The Italeri 1/72 2Nd Ww German Afrika set (HC-6099) depicts German troops serving in North Africa during the Second World War. Following Italy’s setbacks in Cyrenaica, elements of the Deutsche Afrika Korps under General Erwin Rommel were sent in early 1941. The campaign saw swift advances through Cyrenaica and towards Egypt, hard fighting at Tobruk, and eventual defeat at El Alamein, with a gradual withdrawal into Tunisia in 1943.
Designed for 1:72 scale projects, this set provides a varied selection of soldier figures suitable for recreating desert warfare scenes. With multiple poses included, it is a practical choice for World War II dioramas and display layouts focusing on the North African theatre.

After the loss of Cyrenaica, Italy requested a German intervention, and in February 1941 the first troops of what was to become the famous Deutsche Afrika Korps led by General Erwin Rommel were sent to North Africa. The troops of the Axis in a few months took back Cyrenaica and Tobruk, and advanced into Egypt. Constantly short on supplies, they were defeated by the 8th British Army at El Alamein. The additional pressure caused by the American arrival in Morocco forced the Afrika Korps to gradually retreat in Tunisia during 1943.
