German Infantry of World War I 1914 - 1918
By far the most obvious distinction of Germany’s soldiers in 1914 was the famous Prussian Pickelhaube, the spiked helmet with which they were already so well known. However this was for show and offered no protection, so by late 1915 a new steel helmet was being issued and during 1916 this largely replaced the Pickelhaube, which means these figures are only usable for the first two years of the war. All the helmets here seem to have a cover, which was worn right from the start, and while many soon removed the spike, that is easily echoed here by simply trimming off the spike.
