I've got all sorts of 1:72 Italeri models, mainly Soviets, Americans, and Germans and all sorts of tanks from many different countries. I've been wanting to get into Flames of War or something similar, but I'd like to use what I've already got. Is there any really good WWII game systems out there for 1:72 that you guys know of?

Rapid Fire 2

Ambush Alley: Force-on-Force

Nuts! and Disposable Heroes are two other systems that would probably work well at that scale.

I would also recommend rapid fire.

Havent played Rapid Fire or Ambush Alley, but I play these both and can recommend them:
1- Iron Ivan's Disposable Heroes http://www.thewarstore.com/IronIvan.html rules and
2- Easy Eights Battleground WW2 ruleset. http://www.syrhobbswargames.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=SHWL&Category_Code=EEE

Iron Ivan's game is better supported, but I prefer Battleground WW2 game for its quick play and some clever realism elements.

Anyway, I hope this helps.
