M1938 Tanker Helmet fits my big head (1/9/2023)
This is a very decent reproduction helmet for its price. Any all the other offerings on the market are too small for me. Besides the online reviews, I am please with the potential for me to repaint and equip to my liking.

One of the most common complaints is the snaps on the straps at the back. Those are poorly installed, and yes, they came off for me too. But I am handy and will replace the snaps in due time.

I am also impressed with the radio head sets. They look very authentic. And who cares if they do not work? For those of you who have original carbon element head phones and microphones, did you really ever use them?Figure somegthing out with a blue tooth wireless system and get them working.

By the way, I also paired up with an original M1 Steel pot. The fit is perfect.

Very nice reproduction. Closet I will ever get to a real one. Very comfortable to wear and looks great on! Makes a fine addition to my headwear when I play solitaire wargames. Well done WPG!!

I bought a tanker helmet from WPG and have never had a problem with any of there products. Iv been reenacting for ten years.
Now I understand this is a repro and won’t be made to the same specs or quality of an original.
As soon as I tried to Ian snap both back straps to attach them to the side flaps, one snap on each strap broke and they are now stuck to the helmet. When contacted was offered $20. So I paid around $130-$140 with shipping for a helmet that busted due to failure and I’m offered $20. You sir have lost a customer.
