This category encompasses symbols constructed after World War II, creatively based on historical Nazi symbols.

The use of altered Nazi flags and symbols, devoid of explicit references to Nazism such as the swastika, is often termed as "fictionalized" or "modified." This adaptation serves to either comply with legal prohibitions on displaying swastikas or to emphasize a lack of support for Nazism as a political ideology. In media like video games, these symbols convey historical context while avoiding direct depiction of the original emblems. They may mimic the appearance of Nazi symbols using substitutes like the Balkenkreuz or Eisernes Kreuz (Iron Cross), creating new versions of flags and emblems that were never officially used by the Nazi Party or in the Third Reich.

This category also includes fictious symbols devised by blending the Nazi swastika and similar symbols with new designs or existing symbols, logos, flags, and national colors.
