Zulu helmet badge

[Kennyd]

Does anyone know if a repro of the helmet badge used in the 1964 film Zulu, is available ?

The repro commonly sold with the Zulu tag is a wreath style and nothing like the Brunswick star design used in the film.

Cheers :thumbsup

Iconic movie for sure. Ran across a fabulous trivia bit about that while watching the extra content on the Gladiator DVD: apparently Zulu is Ridley Scott's favorite movie, and he put the Zulu chant in the opening battle scene. All the times I've watched that movie, I never noticed it before. :confused
