Default DLI plastic
Hi All,

are the DLI plastic cap badges being reproduced ? Seems to be a good few around for sale at the moment...

Smile Fake plastic badges
I think the only plastic badges to be faked are the Parachute Rgt and Army Air Corps, if anyone knows of others I would be interested.

Oddly the GS Corps and RSIGNALS have been made for reenactors.

Smile Plastic fakes
Alan,

I really am surprised that these badges have been repro'd as they are very common and I would not think worth the effort.
