Scale Model Figures by Scale
Scale model figures bring dioramas, vignettes, and display builds to life across a wide range of historical periods and subjects. Whether you model WWII infantry, ancient warriors, or contemporary civilians, the right scale figure adds authenticity and narrative depth to any scene.
1/144 Scale Model Figures
At the smallest end of the scale spectrum, 1/144 figures are ideal for aircraft dioramas and micro-scale scenes. Pegasus offers sets such as the WWII German Infantry, perfect for pairing with 1/144 aircraft or vehicle builds.
1/72 Scale Model Figures
One of the most popular scales for historical figure modeling, 1/72 offers a broad range of subjects. IMEX Model Co. produces sets like the Alamo Set and Wagon Train, while Italeri contributes medieval subjects such as the Crusaders set.
1/48 Scale Figures
The 1/48 scale bridges the gap between 1/72 and 1/35, making it a natural companion for 1/48 aircraft and armor builds. Tamiya offers sets like the WWII US Infantry At Rest (32552), ideal for airfield and base dioramas.
