Yeah, thanks, but already checked that page . I still find it somewhat difficult to see the specific difference making one helmet A and one helmet B. But I now know how to identify a Gino thanks to the Gino comments and link I got some posts back. Also the FX is ofc easy.

Indeed. Well, my FX helmet is pretty darn well made imo (except for the side stripes which could have been placed a tiny bit further back), I have 2 installed fans in it and the trik toys $100+ sound system. I will probably sell that helmet when I've recieved my new "AP" one. Hope I get more than $100 at least. Will tidy up the inside of the helmet before putting it on ebay of course (if you've seen my images--------

Well, according to the Gino link you gave me, it doesn't look like I got a Gino, but I'm new at this.. but still, I see no bumpy surface for example.

Ahh, a bit of a relief. But I have no idea what these different helmets are worth (ofc is based on the buyer how much he wants it, but still, there must be some cost range for each helmet), I just assumed as someone bid this high, it would be worth it, so I bid higher to win it. Guess maybe it isn't worth this money and the only way it rose beyond 380 bucks before I placed my bid could have been because of a collector really wanting it...... well, he didn't want it enough it seems now... Hope I did good . It should arrive in about 10 days, will take nice pics and post so people can identify it and tell me if I got a bad one or not.

Uhm, I still don't quite get it.... if it's a Gino, does that mean it will have bad surface?, bumps and badly drawn details?.... oh noes!

Yup, I insta-payed him when I won it. What is it that makes sense?? Yup, that's the helmet I won. So, what does this mean then?, I did not win an AP helmet?... is Gino worse than AP?.. is there anything "not good" about the helmet I won?... was the helmet I won WAY overpriced? I bought it as people said in this thread:------------that is looked really nice and looked like an AP (which should be a good helmet if I understand correctly).

Well, I have already ordered the AP from ebay and it's on it's way, 10 days delivery... 480 bucks.

Not seen or heard of that section, but got my eyes on an AP on ebay right now, like a few other peeps here aswell I guess .

Hi all, I'm thinking of ordering the UK MR stormtrooper helmet (I believe this one is the so called MR CE as so many refer to). My questions: Q 1: Isn't the earpieces too thick?, reaching far out from the helmet?.... if so, it wouldn't be hard to remove them and sandpaper them down a bit, right?... or do they look ok as they are? (well, of course screws needs to be added). Q 2: I don't like the rim being so low as it is when you get it, is the rim easily movable?, or do I have to order a new rim? Q 3: Why do people break this helmet apart?. Only guess I could make is to maybe do as I maybe will, sandpaper down the ears, then putting them back and whoalla (or once again, am I mistaken they really aren't that thick?). Q 4: Will filing/reshaping the teeth be enough for the mouth?, in my opinion the whole mouth is not wide enough, correct or am I mistaken? Q 5: The biggest obsticle of ordering it or not right now is.... some people say and I've seen a picture, that the color of the UK MR helmet doesn't match the FX armor color, correct?, or is it only when taking pictures with flash the difference is revealed?. I mean, I don't want there to be a big different when trooping... it would just look silly. Hoping for quick replies. Thanks... Edit, I'm also interested in another option (this one I prefer over buying the UK MR), buying a completed helmet, like AP or whatever. I don't know much about these different helmets and I don't care about screen accuracy, only that they look cool. So that bump under the eye and stuff is of no interest to me. Anyone know where I can get the AP?, as it seems to be the one people like the most. I'm afraid of ordering on ebay as it's easy to get scammed, so I'm hoping the people here are friendly and honest .
