2155TK[TK] Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Can you guys help me out what helmet this is? AP,TE,RT? Its from a buddy of mine and i'd like to make sure where to order it Quote
Dmian Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Mmmm... the images are of very low quality. It doesn't look like a Gino's, AP or TE2. Neither a SDS or MRCE. The AP has a clear bump, and this one lacks it. The TE has sharper detail than this one. Looks a bit like a GF... or maybe a TM. But I'm not sure. Let's see what the experts have to say. Quote
Runnriottt Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Looks like an RT. The dome is pinched and the eyes are RTish... Quote
Smitty Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Looks like an RT. The dome is pinched and the eyes are RTish...agreed Quote
TKDUEUNO Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 I say RT too: http://web.ukonline.co.uk/bingo275/imperialfanRTmod.htm Quote
2155TK[TK] Posted July 2, 2009 Author Report Posted July 2, 2009 THE..BEST..FORUM...EVER. Thanks guys! couldn't have figured this out by myself! Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 One of the distinctive traits of RT helmets (mine anyway) is that the bumps on the earcaps are molded into the ears, versus being separate pieces. Another is the black on the vocoder is a sticker, versus being painted. Quote
carbonitekid Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Another is the black on the vocoder is a sticker, versus being painted. At least it is untill you have had it in the house for more than 5 mins, then out comes the Humbrol Quote
carbonitekid Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 my rt only has three teeth ? Really? Never known that before. Any chance of a pic? Quote

JoeR Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 There are quite a few versions of the RT, he modded it a few times and then included the cast TE face plate. Joe EDIT: The cap/back looks GF to me. Weird.... Quote

Joe EDIT: The cap/back looks GF to me. Weird.... I know it's weird..it seems to be a spot on RT, but then i again i remember the detail on the ears were very soft, unlike on my AP.. my friend says he just heated the bump on the eye to remove it.. Are you buying this helmet? I might buy something similar but i'm having second thoughts..Oh well Quote
2155TK[TK] Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 GF all the way So it is a GF? Just wanted to be sure.. Quote
png Posted July 5, 2009 Report Posted July 5, 2009 There is a prop maker called MonCal, it looks like his. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted July 5, 2009 Report Posted July 5, 2009 There is a prop maker called MonCal, it looks like his. Fascinating - I didn't know MonCal made TK helmets. He makes many other things, but I haven't ever seen him hawk TK lids that I recall. Quote
carbonitekid Posted July 5, 2009 Report Posted July 5, 2009 Fascinating - I didn't know MonCal made TK helmets. He makes many other things, but I haven't ever seen him hawk TK lids that I recall. Glad I'm not the only one surprised by that post. Quote
2155TK[TK] Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 But where did MonCal get the TK helmet from? Well.. if it is Moncal Quote
