This doesn't seem like a racial trait to me, more like some kind of mutation, maybe due to testosterone or genetic recombination. At any rate, I think pretty much all of these could be explained as some sort of mixture between Nordic, Brunn and Borreby, but they are strongly varied and there is not enough consistency to define it as its own type.
Occasionally you do see a person who seems to be Hitler's dream, with hyper-progressive features, Nordic pigmentation, square jaw, super angular face, and so on. Those people are one in a million though, and they come out of a population of regular Nordics and Alpines, etc. so I wouldn't call them a race, just an extremely lucky combination of genes. Think Dolph Lundgren. I don't think there is or ever was a race of people like him, he was just a freak mutation that produced a one of a kind individual.
