Historical Characters

Historical figures open the door to period-specific storytelling. PLAGARY's historical collection covers the eras most commonly requested by diorama builders: medieval knights and peasants (for castle and village scenes), Victorian ladies and gentlemen (for 19th-century street and railway scenes), and WWII military and civilian figures (for wartime layouts and military dioramas). Each figure is researched for period-accurate clothing, accessories and poses. Preiser separates historical figures from their standard civilian line, and for good reason — historical accuracy is a different skill from modern figure painting. Available in HO, OO, N and additional scales.
