Re: Fiber Glass helmet is to small :(
I just got one of the South American ones and it fits well. Just need to dremel, sand and paint it now.
Re: Fiber Glass helmet is to small :(
I won't get into the linage of the helmets (from any seller) but I will say this, the helmets need to look like Royal Guard helmets and they need to fit. The smaller framed the person a smaller helmet will look perfect on them. The larger framed a person, the larger helmet will look right. The fact of the matter is that the helmet is uncomfortable, you can't breath well, you can't see great, and you can't communicate to save your life. Don't force a smaller helmet on your head then you need to.

Oh im not forcing it on. Its now laying around in hopes of a trade with a local RG with a to big of a helmet. Oddly i can breath just fine with out fogging the lens even though the lens touches my eyebrow.JesterTDA wrote:I won't get into the linage of the helmets (from any seller) but I will say this, the helmets need to look like Royal Guard helmets and they need to fit.

The mike system has been great for communicating to handlers at events... no need to step backstage necessarily as it were...
Re: Fiber Glass helmet is to small :(
I've tried a mike system, and I'm sure if I sat down and worked it into my helmet I could pull it off, but it's been a pain for me in the past. I should probably work on that though

I was thinking the throat mics would work the best. Would only really need it to talk to other members.

Hi gang,
I just got my bucket today, looks great.
I got it from steviebxxx on Ebay...looks good and fits perfectly and the lens doesn't fog up
anyway here's my little two cents on the helmet thing

Re: Fiber Glass helmet is to small :(
Great to hear! As for your lenses fogging up...they might not be fogging up now, but just wait until you've got a few layers of velvet on, then your story might change
Hope not of course.
