Historical Background

Paul M. Preiser GmbH has been producing realistic miniature figures since 1949 and is widely regarded as a global leader in the field. Originally hand-carved from wood, Preiser figures have been injection-moulded in plastic since the 1960s, allowing for greater consistency while maintaining exceptional detail.

A traditional family-run business now in its third generation, Preiser produces figures in over 20 different scales for use in model railways, architectural models, advertising, and art. Every figure is carefully researched, assembled, and hand-painted to ensure accuracy in both form and clothing, representing a wide range of historical periods and everyday life scenes.

With production facilities in Germany and Mauritius, and strong markets across Europe, the UK, the USA, and Japan, Preiser continues to set the standard for quality and realism in miniature figures.
