I am after a helmet for Kassereine to paint in DAK colour but did not want to splash out on a full price one, so was thinking of a plastic one, only trouble is the only ones I have seen are made to a small shell size which looks ok with a helmet cover on but a bit daft otherwise, (especially if you have a big head like me) anyone know of a plastic helmet made to the larger size?

If I was doing german, I would be tempted by one of these:

Cheapest full size plastic helmet I could find is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/German-Replic ... 2ed9505eb0

In those, the german side would never make it to the front lines, you would all just be standing around checking out your reflections :rofl:

If you do buy one - just make sure it comes with a strap on.

...I was just saying that they may unknowingly be sold without a chin strap attached. :wink:

Hahaha, nice!

Just googling 'Polished Helmets Strap On'. Seems a legit enquiry. I'll report back with my findings!
