Mars 72106 German Elite Division (Normandy 44-45) (1/72)

Mars 72106 German Elite Division (Normandy 44-45) is a precisely crafted set of plastic figurines in 1:72 scale, transporting the modeler into the realities of the legendary German elite division during the battles in Normandy in 1944-1945. This set was designed to recreate the scenes of historical World War II battles on the Western Front, especially during the D-Day operation and the subsequent positional battles and counterattacks in Normandy.

The model depicts soldiers from selected elite German formations, such as the Waffen-SS or chosen Wehrmacht units, distinguished by their high level of training, strong motivation, and characteristic armament. These figurines are dedicated to reflecting the atmosphere of the battles for Caen, Falaise, or Saint-Lô, sites known for their fierce clashes in 1944. German elite formations were actively used to break through Allied attacks and maintain key positions. The period of use for these types of units covers the final stage of World War II, from the Allied landings in Normandy up to the surrender of Germany in 1945.

The Mars 72106 set is made of high-quality plastic, ensuring ease of processing and painting as well as allowing excellent representation of the uniforms, weapons, and equipment details.
