This was the Wehrmacht's last offensive on the western front before the final surrender in 1945. The “Wacht am Rhein” plan envisaged, on the part of General Von Rundstedt , the use of many elite units of Wehrmacht and of Waffen SS. The climax of the offensive was the siege of Bastogne, on December 21st, 1944. The town was defended by the 101st Airborne Division. The models in this kit are equipped with the innovative Sturmgewehr 44 which can be considered the precursor of today's assault rifles.

Good for dioramas, but for play the plastic is a bit more brittle than the Airfix sets. Still, worth getting and will buy more Italeri sets. ## Frequently Bought Together - Italeri 556068 1/72 WWII German SS ITAS6068 - Italeri 6046S 1:72 - WWII American Infantry - Italeri German Paratroopers Figures 1/72 6045 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/10515442-italeri-556068-1-72-wwii-german-ss-itas6068](https://www.desertcart.us/products/10515442-italeri-556068-1-72-wwii-german-ss-itas6068) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
