MUNCLE picspam: hurray for hats!

xparrotBusy day packing and cleaning. The Move is on Wednesday, the goodbye party's tomorrow. So to take my mind off of that, I am picspamming MUNCLE.
Asthe worst spies ever international super-spies, Napoleon and Illya don a variety of hats, most of which are ridiculous, or else ridiculously adorable - more the former for Napoleon, who accrues negative fashion karma nearly every time he puts something on his head; more the latter for Illya (even if it is a crime* to cover his hair.)
*punishable by death in eight countries, including Japan, San Rico, and Ingolstein.
So, in celebration of headgear!
"Must we do this, Napoleon?"
"Yes. Yes, we must!"
Napoleon is quite fond of fezzes...unfortunately...
Illya, on the other hand, is more partial to the burnoose:
And will even fashion his own from a parachute, when he's not playing Illya of Arabia:
Napoleon can go for a burnoose himself:
But he can't quite pull it off.
Oh well, it's better than the pith helmet:
Or the winter gear:
"What do you mean, I look like a beagle?"
"Never mind, Napoleon..."
(you'll have to take my word for it that it's Napoleon in the middle. And that's Illya in blue.)
Napoleon has hats for all occasions!
...including this one. I have no idea.
Dressed up for a head of state:
You love me even in a bowler, right?
Napoleon is just hat-crazy in "The Round Table Affair":
Are you actually going out in public in that?
Oh, come on, Napoleon.
Oy vey!
(Tsk, tsk. People in absurd false mustaches shouldn't throw stones, Illya.)
Okay, how about this one?
Nope, Illya doesn't care for this one, either.
Illya generally wears hats only in the line of duty, as part of his disguises:
Here, for instance, he's disguised as a piece of coral...
Mmmm, disguises.
...now will you take that thing out of your mouth?!
And occasionally while in uniform:
Mmm, Russian naval officer hat...
Or sometimes when he's just impersonating a Gypsy. Or, um, whatever he's wearing this for:
The difference between you and me, Napoleon, is that I make silly hats look good.
I'll drink to that!
Then there is the beret.
Tell us more...
In the '60s, berets were apparently a sign of Evil, as seen on the standard THRUSH uniform.
Consequently, both boys look absolutely fetching when pretending to be THRUSHies:
Even moreso when they're matching!
Fourth season sadly does not feature many hats, but makes up for it with those it does have:
--No, Napoleon, it's on your head, but it doesn't count!
Ah, here we go:
Why is he wearing a fishing hat in the desert?
And who cares, if he's going to sprawl so artfully while he does it?
Silly hats are also good for expressing I-think-my-partner's-dead-angst.
Aww!
And fourth season also has the best Illya-in-disguise, of course:
Ahhhhh, glasses...
Disturbingly sexy for a neo-Nazi.
Thrush dude: He must be UNCLE, we don't have anyone this hot on our side!
Napoleon concurs.
("...On the one hand, kissing my partner's perfect lips now would probably blow his cover. On the other hand...mmm, blow...")
Now! I must sleep.
(And let me know what amazing hats I've forgotten!)
