Italeri 6047 - 1/72 Roman Infantry Model Kit - Cesars Wars Series, Hobby Builder Pack  [IT-6047S]

Italeri 6047 - 1/72 Roman infantry miniature set

The Italeri 6047 1/72 kit puts the 1st Century B.C. Roman soldier within reach of scale modellers looking to recreate authentic formations. This set focuses on realistic equipment and proportional detail for accurate miniatures.

Historical background and modelling interest

Roman infantry kit combined protection and mobility. The segmental lorica provided layered defence while staying flexible, the large scutum shield supported tight formation tactics, and the gladius and pilum completed the standard fighting loadout. These elements make the subject popular for historical recreations.

Construction and finishing

The small 1/72 scale requires attention to flash removal and neat joins. Painting and weathering bring out the sculpted detail, and the build process offers a clear learning path for those studying ancient military gear.

Presentation and collection uses

Finished figures work well in squad-level displays or as part of a broader historical collection. Their scale suits layered dioramas that show troop behaviour and battlefield roles without taking too much shelf space.
