Dragon 3015 US 1st Infantry Division (1/35)

Dragon 3015 US 1st Infantry Division is a high-quality plastic model kit in the popular 1:35 scale, depicting soldiers of the legendary 1st Infantry Division of the United States Army, also known as the “Big Red One.” The set is produced by the renowned Dragon company, famous for extremely precise details and excellent quality plastic.

The 1st Infantry Division is one of the most recognizable American units from World War II, which participated in many key operations, including the landing in Normandy (D-Day) on June 6, 1944, as well as the battles for Saint-Lô. The division also took an active part in campaigns in North Africa (Operation Torch) and Italy. The kit's user was, of course, the US Army, and the figurines portray soldiers in the typical combat uniforms of that era—perfectly recreated by Dragon.
