Boonie Hat 2

Into the jungle, the desert, the long grass. Boonie Hat 2 is a fresh sculpt bringing a second distinct boonie hat profile to the Dragoon headgear lineup — wide-brimmed, field-ready, and built for figures who live beyond the wire.

Essential for Vietnam, LRRP, jungle warfare, desert operations, and any long-range patrol build. Pairs perfectly with Boonie Hat 1 to field a full patrol element with varied headgear.

• Scale: 1:12 (6-inch figure compatible)
• Available as Flex-Black (physical) or STL (3D printable digital file)
• Ideal for Vietnam, jungle warfare, desert ops, and special forces figure builds
• Compatible with most standard 1:12 action figure head sculpts

3D printed products may require minor post-processing. Support remnants, layer lines, or slight surface variations are normal and can be cleaned up with a hobby knife, needle files, or light sanding. Final appearance may vary slightly depending on printer settings and material used.

Backstory / History

The boonie hat — officially the "hat, sun, field" — has been carried by American soldiers, Marines, and special operations forces since Vietnam, where the wide brim offered protection from the punishing tropical sun and drove a clear visual distinction between the conventional force and the long-range patrol element who lived in the bush for weeks at a time. From the jungles of Southeast Asia to the mountains of Afghanistan and the deserts of Iraq, the boonie has remained a fixture of the field-going soldier's kit. Boonie Hat 2 offers a distinct second sculpt — a different brim profile and crown shape from Boonie Hat 1 — giving builders the variety to outfit a full patrol or reconnaissance element with authentic, non-repeating headgear.
