Italeri 1/72 French Line Infantry (1815) - Napoleonic shako troops

This Italeri 1/72 French Line Infantry kit recreates soldiers from Napoleon's later campaigns with attention to uniform detail. The figures show the shako headgear adopted after 1806 and reflect the look of line infantry in 1815, making the set useful for modellers focused on period fidelity.

Historical context for modellers

Line infantry were a key element of Napoleonic tactics, and the kit captures uniform features and kit carried by rank and file troops. The sculpting concentrates on authentic silhouettes and equipment so model builders can match historical references when painting.

Why this kit suits diorama work

Scaled at 1/72, these figures fit neatly into compact battlefield scenes and can be grouped to recreate lines, advances or volleys. The set is supplied unpainted and unassembled, offering modellers a chance to personalise uniforms and poses for tabletop displays.

Specifications

  • Scale - 1/72
  • Material - Plastic
  • Assembly - Glue required

Yes, other 1/72 Napoleonic figures usually match in scale. Check style and pose lines before mixing to keep a consistent look across your diorama.
Some small flash and sprue remnants are normal. Light trimming with a hobby knife and a quick sand will improve fit and appearance before assembly.
This kit focuses on figures and does not include decals. Modellers typically hand-paint facings and insignia at this scale or source third party decal sheets.
Single 1/72 figures are small; many builders use 20 mm to 25 mm individual bases or group them on small scenic bases to create rank and file formations.
