Maybe. Not a full helmet, if the pics are an indication. Molded in about is a turn off for me.

[TK-7828]

He got the rest of the helmet to buy...looks vvveeerryy thin in areas and its only resin so prob gonna crack in the mail. Just curios cause it got that lovley longface.

Looks pritty decent in the full pic of the helmet on one of his other auctions....but then on the other hand I only know TK stuff and are new here

Essentially that lid is a direct recast of a Rubies (that's had some of the usual deformation corrected).

 

All the hallmarks are there. The filled in eye section with the bar down the centre, the snout line indent and he's even gone as far as to put in the rivet holes in the visor top, which as we all know is completely wrong.

 

 

The Rubies lid itself isn't all that far off in terms of physical shape when corrected. It's a bit short/squat, but not all that far out.

When asseble could this be cleared or is it way off for clearance?

[Chef]

Anything can be cleared, depending on how much work you put into it.

 

And that's the point... Nothing is '501st Clearable', because it is always down to the final finished item as to whether it would be clearable or not.

 

You can't buy a kit and be 100% guaranteed clearance. It just doesn't happen that way.

You could get a kit of an RS lid (if such a thing existed) and make a lash up of the construction, or a real sows ear of a kit and do a load of mods and make a stunning helmet.

 

I do note that the listing is for just the 'visor', and you have to buy all three parts at $65 each, which makes it close to $200 all in.

 

You can probably find a much more established and better kit out there for that kind of money.

So around 200$ what makers can I choose from then when it comes to a helmet?

SC bucket isn't that far from $200 I wanna say.
