Sarah Pugliaresi[501st] Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 Hey hey, I was just wondering the consesus was on the altmans helmet? My fiance has finally lit a fire under me about getting a new helmet and I was curious about how it compares with other models out there like the AP or FX,which I am currently using. If it matters, I'm 5'3" and yes my helmet looks funny on me. Thanks a bunch! Sarah Quote
Exodus[TK] Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 I thought they only made Biker helmets? Quote

The Tk helmets i have seen from them dont look that great, i checked them out. I am in the hunt for an AP as well. the FX just looks bobble head on some guys. Hits on my chest plate as well, i guess i need a longer neck. found a pretty good compairason website on helmets. ----------- Hope that helps...

TK8280 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Hey all, I just recently ordered an AP Bucket so if you want you can PM me for more detailes about it. Quote
SuperTrooper Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Don't forget about the RT-MOD bucket. It's a bit cheaper than the AP or TE helmets and almost as accurate. Quote
Boozel Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Don't forget about the RT-MOD bucket. It's a bit cheaper than the AP or TE helmets and almost as accurate. From what I have seen, Altmans is very off from any other trooper bucket out there. not worht it if you are buying just a bucket. I have an RT on FX armor, I love it. I wouldnt mind having an AP, but $$$ for now(christmas and new RT armor) is a bit tight for costuming. my $.02 Quote
Sarah Pugliaresi[501st] Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Posted November 28, 2006 Thank you all for the information. I think I'll pass on the altman's as I can see about how it looks "off." Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 RTMod seems especially popular in Canada. I've never seen it in person but it's supposed to be quite nice. If anyone has an extra suit laying around, I'm sure I can find a welcome home for it ;-) Quote
SuperTrooper Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 RTMod seems especially popular in Canada. Probably because he is from/in Canada. As far as I know the other major TK armor makers are in the US. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Proximity is also why you see more MovieFX in mainland Europe & SDS in England Quote
