Soldiers Figures
Bricks: Soldier Figures. Explore our building blocks offers.
Our company’s military products are replicas of historical models and we clearly distance ourselves from the glorification of war in any way. The models of historical vehicles, ships, airplanes and other subjects we create are made with the utmost dedication to accurate reproduction and attention to detail, and COBI does this in interest of helping to inspire generations of people to learn about history.
A tank or aircraft can tell part of a story, but it is the soldiers who bring historical scene to life. COBI’s World War II soldier figures are designed for collectors, history enthusiasts and builders who want to add people, detail and context to their military displays.
The collection includes figures connected with well-known events and formations from the Second World War. You can find sets inspired by the D-Day landings, the Warsaw Uprising, the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Berlin and Monte Cassino, as well as Polish Uhlans and German infantry. Each set gives you a different way to represent the people who took part in some of the most important events of the period.
Build detailed historical scenes
These WWII soldier figures work especially well alongside COBI tanks, aircraft, artillery and other World War II building sets. Place them around a vehicle, create a small battlefield display or use several sets to build a larger diorama. Their uniforms, equipment and accessories help distinguish individual figures and make it easier to recreate scenes with a recognizable historical setting.
The compact size of the sets also makes them an accessible way to start collecting COBI military bricks. You can choose a particular battle or formation that interests you and gradually expand the display with other models from the World War II collection.
Figures for collectors and history enthusiasts
COBI treats historical military subjects as a way to learn about the past.

For collectors, these figures are also a simple way to expand an existing WWII collection without committing to a large model. Combine different sets to create more varied and detailed historical displays.

A military display can have impressive vehicles, but it is often the people around them that make the scene feel complete. COBI's soldiers figures collection focuses on the human side of World War II, offering detailed minifigures representing soldiers associated with different armies, battles and historical events. The current range includes sets inspired by D-Day, the Warsaw Uprising, Monte Cassino, Stalingrad, the Battle of Berlin and other important episodes of the conflict.
These are not generic characters that could belong to any period. Uniforms, headgear, equipment and accessories help distinguish individual figures and connect them with a particular historical context. That attention to detail is especially useful for collectors who want their displays to tell a specific story rather than simply fill a shelf.
Small figures, plenty of possibilities
