SP@CECOWBOY Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 One of the listed requirements for level 2 says "Ear bars have three bumps only, not four." Every helmet photo I've seen online has four bumps on the ear. Where can you buy helmets with only three bumps? Or am I just misunderstanding the question?

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Several makers have Hero helmets, TM, ATA (supplies ears only) and I believe AM may be doing them now. Hero ears only use 2 screws too, not 3 like Stunt versions. You can see the difference here: http://www.starwarshelmets.com/original-stormtrooper-comparisons.htm STUNT Hero Edited January 6, 2017 by gmrhodes13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 It is also possible to transform 4 bump ears into 3. I did this on my Anovos bucket, but it takes some time and patience. I sanded down the inside of the bump, removed the paint from the outside of it, filled in the inside and outside areas with ABS paste and then (using needle files) re-carved the notches. After that I repainted them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP@CECOWBOY Posted January 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Thanks guys, you've been super helpful. So does ATA not make a full Hero helmet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Not sure on that one.. The helmets come unassembled, so all you would need are the ears. I would contact them and find out, and if they do, maybe they could send you those instead of the Stunt ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 RT IIRC also has 3 bump, and John Danter used to make them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does ATA not make a full Hero helmet?No ATA only makes the ears, but if you are handy and used a heat gun before, you can modify the teeth as I have done here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/23694-hero-bucket-build/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLH2515[TK] Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I went with the new AM hero kit came with the right ears and everything you need to assemble. The bucket is smaller then the previous 2.0 bucket. And it is a 2 piece now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
