    Clicking the decal does not make it much larger , does not look authentic to me. Bigger photos will confirm.

    Much beter this photo. The decal is really bad , lacks crucial details and the lacquer border is too much.
    The paint I fear is no good either.

    This is not a "Well balanced helmet". First thing I noticed.
    Well worn & possibly abused liner (not sure it's German)..missing strap, odd color paint & new decal. One can see somebody painted it up to the liner edges. Looks like it was painted with a can of spray paint. Decal is lacking in detail (acorns especially).

    The decal is bad and it looks like a stick on paper label inside. I'd question the whole thing.

    Only to trick those that are completely unfamiliar with the hobby. It's like those Chinese made German helmets , also fakes but really easy except for those that never saw a real German WW2 helmet.
