Dan Taylor Modelworks has sent Armorama news of three new braille scale resin figure head sets they are releasing.

Dan Taylor Modelworks is to my knowledge the only company that currently provides alternate heads for 1/72nd scale figures and the latest three sets are;

H-76313 Forage Caps. Also described as ‘Side Hats and ‘Chip Bags’, this headgear was ubiquitous in the British Army until superseded by the beret. Besides the basic khaki side hat, many regiments and services adopted a coloured version specific to their unit. This set of seven heads is presented in unpainted resin

H-76314 Polish Berets. Polish Forces operating in Northwest Europe during WWII wore their berets in a distinctively different way to their British counterparts. This set of six heads reflects this difference and includes two heads with AFV headsets for AFV crew. Six heads are provided in unpainted resin

H-76315 French Headgear.This set comprises the traditional Kepi, then two Adrian Helmets, a 'bonnet de police' side hat, a chasseur beret, and two French style AFV helmets. The Adrian helmet and the AFV headgear were adopted by a number of other countries and Free French forces continued to use their original headgear in the UK. These seven heads are provided in unpainted resin.
