Real or REPO SVN ARVN Para wings

[easterneagle87]

Simple question, REAL or REPO

Looks like it might be OK. Some of these were stamped and others cast. Yours appears to be cast.

Looks genuine.  I have been collecting variants of these SVN paratrooper wings for a long time now however I have never come across one made like this before.  From the rear the star at the base almost looks like a separate piece soldered to the top.  If this is the case it is the first two piece SVN para wing that has surfaced for sale to my knowledge.  Everything else looks correct from the rear nail like pins, white translucent plastic clutches, thin brass palm leaf, red felt like backing material and polished front.
