Napoleonic Wars
Bricks: Napoleonic Wars. Explore our building blocks offers.
The Napoleonic era was shaped by ambitious campaigns, disciplined armies and battles fought across much of Europe. The Napoleonic Wars building blocks collection from COBI brings that period into a form you can build, display and explore piece by piece. It combines military figures, artillery, landmarks and one of the most famous sailing ships in history, giving enthusiasts several way to recreate the atmosphere of the early 19th century.
From soldiers to famous ship
The collection includes French soldiers and Prussian soldiers, allowing you to represent two opposing sides of the period. Smaller figure sets work particularly well as additions to larger scenes, while the French Artilleryman-Cannon set introduces a piece of battlefield equipment that immediately gives a display a military character. There is also a set featuring soldiers from the Napoleonic era, making it easier to build a larger formation.
For collectors interested in the wider historical setting, the range goes beyond armies. Napoleon Battle of Moscow and Campagne d’Egypte refer to two very different chapters of Napoleon’s campaigns, giving the collection more variety than a typical soldier-focused series. Nelson’s Column adds a completely different perspective, connecting the building experience and events surrounding the Napoleonic period.
The standout models are undoubtedly HMS Victory and its Limited Edition version. The ship is closely associated with Admiral Horatio Nelson and the Battle of Trafalgar, so it makes a natural centerpiece for a historical display. With its distinctive sailing-ship silhouette, it also offers a completely different building experience from the smaller military sets.
