Victrix Limited delivers a massive, historically detailed Napoleonic core unit with this 28mm scale plastic box set of 58 Bavarian Line Infantry (1809–1815). Precision-molded in high-grade gray polystyrene, this Napoleonic Wars Collection release represents the pivotal transformation of the Bavarian army following their adoption of French-style habit-veste uniforms, standardized knapsacks, and distinct wool-crested Raupenhelm helmets. For the dedicated Napoleonic wargamer, this comprehensive set provides enough modular firepower and dynamic posing to build a complete, full-strength tabletop battalion with seamless visual variety across the ranks.
Engineered across 10 detailed frames, this boxed set delivers 58 figures total, divided into 36 march-attack figures, 16 firing-line figures, 4 command specialists, and 2 mounted colonels on dynamic horses. Victrix has loaded the sprues with modular heads, arms, and equipment, allowing you to assemble your models biting cartridges, priming muskets, firing, or advancing at the march. The kit also includes optional wool plumes, enabling you to clearly distinguish elite grenadiers and light infantry companies from standard center line companies.
