In a process I know others will appreciate, I have been slowly adding to my (varied) collection... with examples of items I have liked ever since discovering them in service... or just find interesting! Some of which are relevant here

... not even sure there are any (what I would call) 'S10' haversacks in MTP - when the General Service Respirator (GSR) replaced the Avon ones, it was fielded with an MTP 'carry case' (not a haversack anymore but can't remember new nomenclature) from the start & possibly pre-dated other PLCE in MTP.

Edit 2: Just been into MTP thread - GSR has a 'Field Pack'.

Firstly, apparently there was a DPM Field Pack. Interestingly, although closer to the Olive/DPM PLCE Respirator Haversack, it is a different design from both that and the eventual MTP Field Pack for the GSR:

I have never seen one in use and it seems to be very much a 'transitional' item; maybe even produced on a limited basis but never issued on a significant basis?

Then, continuing my theme of DPM items that remained in use well after the introduction of MTP, I give you...

The Pouch, Medical DPM IRR (First Aider Trauma Pack):

The 11 Round 40mm Grenade Bandolier, Woodland DPM:

What's in the second to bottom plastic container by the door, and when did you last open it?

Patrol Cap 68 patt camo similar to Jerry's one. Not sure but this patt camo could be the 60 type?

S95 version came in today! Probably a Chinese made one.

An example of a New Zealand Army DPM helmet cover for a PASGT helmet. This is an early type with a single centre seam and similar to the design of the M1 helmet cover (which was also produced in DPM for NZ Army prior to 2000).
This PASGT cover probably dates to early 2000's, later on there was a twin seam version made somewhat similar to German WW2 era helmet cover construction.
