Hiya, according to one source I have, the white shield at top left in your first picture (they are on their side) is for the 4th Panzer regt (43-45)

The ones on the right side of the same picture are 6th Panzer regt (they are upside down)

Checking the others....

The red bear is Panzer-Abteilung C (43-45).
My source has the image reversed.

Double "X"'s are also 6th Panzer Regt. (43-45)
or 2nd Pzr Regt (1940)

Single "X" - 1st Pzr Regt (1940)
Single "X" on black background 5th Panzer Division (41-45)

Still checking....

I agree that they are a good buy,I used some of the vehicle and Grossdeutschland unit markings on my Tiger.I think all five of the sheets I purchased were very reasonable.Blake

The bear looks like the berlin bear to me it can be reversed if it was on a turret it would be facing forward.
