Wondering who makes a decent WW2 German Headset (headphones for radio). I see Royal Models makes one, but can't seem to find a supplier in North America.

I looked at their listing, they have heads with head sets on, but no just head set. I am looking for just the head phones.



But can't seem to find a vendor in North America, and shipping from Italy can be expensive.

If you're just looking for the headsets, then K59 makes some very nice ones:

R&J Enterprises::K59 German Headsets

DML actually includes the headsets with PE headbands in some of their German tank and self-propelled gun crew sets. These are really pretty good and I confess to just buying the DML figures just to get the headsets.

Of course, the Hornet heads with the earphones are excellent, but unless I'm mistaken, you can't get just the earphones without buying the heads (HGH23 and HGH25):

A few nice options here and I have seen them all in person. Although I can't say enough good things about Hornet heads I have to say that the K59 headsets are the most detailed out there. Pretty much astounding really. As are all of their other prodects.

Since you're in Ontario have you tried the Barrel Store? I think they are situated in or near TO. Ed carries an extensive range of Royal Models accessories, which I'm sure includes the headset set. www.thebarrelstore.com
