Victrix Limited delivers the core of Napoleon’s Grande Armée with this 28mm scale plastic box set of 60 French Napoleonic Infantry 1807 - 1812. Precision-molded in high-detail gray polystyrene, this set captures the appearance of French line battalions that campaigned across Russia, Austria, Italy, and the Iberian Peninsula.

Engineered across 8 high-density frames, this boxed set yields 60 highly detailed infantry figures. The modular sprues allow you to build an authentic six-company battalion structure: four companies of Fusiliers, one company of elite Grenadiers in bearskin bonnets or shakos, and one flanking company of skirmishing Voltigeurs. The kit features an extensive command detachment with officers, an Eagle standard bearer (Porte-Aigle), and drummers. Model your infantry in firing lines, marching at porte, or advancing at the charge with bayonets fixed, fully supported by company-specific pom-poms, shako cords, and backpacks.
