I'm looking for goggles for 1/35 figs, like those used by Afrika Korps.
Does any styrene set come with these?

Tamiya supply 2 types of clear styrene goggles with their Churchill (not the Crocodile version), Cromwell and Centaur kits.
You also get a bunch of wine bottles on the same sprue.
I've seen photos of Afrika Korps troops wearing "borrowed" British goggles and I believe I read somewhere that the goggles favoured by Rommel were of British origin.
Best source unless someone knows better.
Good Luck.
