Italeri 6068 - 1/72 Scale German Elite Troops

This Italeri 1/72 WWII German Elite Troops model kit gives New Zealand hobby modellers a neat set of figures to recreate late-war scenes. The figures reflect soldiers from the Ardennes offensive and include historically accurate equipment such as the Sturmgewehr 44, an important step in small arms development.

Why this kit appeals to hobby modellers

The subject focuses on elite German units active during December 1944. These figures suit diorama builders wanting compact troop groups or scenes tied to the Battle of the Bulge, including defensive stands like Bastogne.

Construction notes and display use

Parts are crisply moulded for 1/72 scale and require careful trimming and gluing. The kit is rewarding for modellers who enjoy painting small-scale figures and assembling historical displays.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: PS plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue

Yes, it is suitable for beginners who have tried basic figure painting. Start with simple base coats and practise washes to highlight folds and kit before attempting fine detail.
Standard modelling tools suffice: sprue cutters, hobby knife, fine files, and plastic cement. A magnifier and fine brushes help with 1/72 scale details.
Experienced modellers can re-pose parts with careful cutting and glue. Conversions are possible but require steady hands and appropriate adhesives for small-scale work.
