Genuine question: What are the devil-horns on his head?! Not seen those before.

Hi Steve, I think they are part of the communication set up. Offo took it directly from photos and art work. They are separate to the kit so can either be raised or lowered to the side if the helmet. I hope that helps.

I’m sure WW2 buffs on here will answer better than me.so if anyone has the info please let us know.

The "horns" are clips to hold the goggles in place. Usually, this are folded down on the side of the helmet.

Thank you Bonehead, we were wondering too. It make sense. The good thing is you can have them up or down it’s up to the modellers to decide. But it clears things up.

Nap thank you for the photos, the first one is what Offo used to design the bust.

Thanks again guys.
