Default Royal Marine badges

nothing too unusual but would just like to know these are ok. I think the first smaller badge is a repro? Many thanks

Royal marine light infantry looks good to me. There are others more qualified, though, so I’ll bow to them if they say otherwise.

KC cap/beret badge is a copy/restrike.

I don't collect helmet plates so can't give an opinion.
