The item is a German Infantry M43 Field Cap accessory, designed for minifigures.
Hand-Painted M43 Field Cap (Field Green) This is a premium 3D printed and hand-painted custom headgear accessory. It replicates the standard issue German M43 Field Cap (Einheitsfeldmütze). The cap is painted in a field green/grey (Feldgrau) color, suitable for standard infantry units. Unlike the previous tank version, this cap does not have headphones, giving it a sleek, standard appearance. It features intricate hand-painted details, including gold buttons and the gold Wehrmacht eagle insignia on the front peak.
Background: The M43 Field Cap was introduced in 1943 to replace the older side caps (Schiffchen). It was designed based on the mountain troops’ “Bergmütze” and featured a visor to protect the soldier’s eyes from the sun and rain. It became the most widely recognized headgear of the German soldier in the late war period. This specific version, lacking the radio headset, represents the standard gear worn by infantry officers, regular soldiers, or generals when not inside a vehicle.
