German Helmets in Hollywood

[patches]

Some more from Downfall, seems to be a mixture of Mock Ups and real deal M35,M40 and M42s.

[patches]

And Waffen SS Men, either  from Nordland  or Charlemagne Divisions, would imagine helmets are mostly real ones with the Camo Covers on them.

[patches]

Troops of the Führer Grenadier Battalion at Rastenburg in the 2008 movie Valkyrie, Camo covers of the Army type and mosquito nets.

[patches]

More from Valkyrie,Wach Battalion in Berlin. M35, M40s, and M42s, would think these are originals, though they may be faithfull Repros.

[patches]

From Valkyrie, in this one we see one Mock Up right, no Spilt Hear or Air Vent, the others look alright.

[patches]

And these last two, M35s, M40s, and M42s

[patches]

A Total Mock Up on Frank Sinatra in the 1965 Von Ryan's Express.

[patches]

Anzio, 1968 film, The Sniper, don't  if helmet is real or not, but his camo cover and uniform is the then current Buundeswehr right.

[patches]

One more from Downfall, looks like the Flak Kid has a Luftschutz decaled Fireman's helmet.

[patches]

Mostly Mock Ups in the 1966 Is Paris Burning? Though there were some real helmets floating around, here a M42.

[patches]

And Mock Ups, as is the Uniforms.

 

Is Paris Burning? 

[patches]

Looks like a Mock Up, The Dirty Dozen.

[patches]

Mock Ups all around in The Longest Day so far,

 

An SS one, see the oversized SS Shield Decal.

 

[patches]

Two more photos. One with a fake Eagle Decal.

 

 

[patches]

These are interesting these from The Bridge at Remagen, they seem to be all real M35s, M40s and M42s, but have been repainted a Gloss and given fake decals, one near the gun in the background in the first photo is wearing a Fireman helmet, as this was shot in Czechoslovakia in 1968 perhaps these were around since 1945,

[patches]

Total Mock Ups used in Patton.

The size of the shield reminds me of the old 70s  Tamiya German Helmet Decals. they were oversized remember

The Devils Brigade, Mocks Up.

[patches]

Big Time Mock Ups from the 1993 Staligrad, the Reed Green Uniforms too.

[patches]

More from Stalingrad.

[patches]

And this one from BoB, the English Soldier dressed in captured German stuff for Training purposes, the helmet we gather is real.

[patches]

A Mock Up in the 1978 Mini Series Holocaust. And he's wearing the wrong color Waffenfarbe, Concentration Camp personnel wore Brown Waffenfarbe not the White of the Infantry.

 

[patches]

A Real one, either an M35 or M40 on Mr Spock in that TR Episode of Star Trek Patterns of Force, a Repaint no doubt with Decals applied, applied on the wrong sides.
