Helmet seal

[Guest JDream]

Hi fellow TBs,

 

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but now I am in the midst of building up my KS bucket, and I use Cris' tutorial as a reference. I couldn't help but notice that he puts a strip of white rubber door seal around the back of the bucket, near the neck area, presumably to protect from the sharp edges at the back.

 

I would like to ask if this is acceptable for the Legion? Also, is it screen-accurate?

 

Thanks! :0)

You don't need to put that strip on. On the other side, if you feel it's more comfortable with it on, you can put it on. It's not a deal-breaker either way.

 

It's acceptable for the legion but it's not screen-accurate (as far as we know).

Not screen accurate, not Lancer approved. However, some do wear it to keep the back of the helmet from cracking or bending when it rubs on their neck

Thanks guys. So do you all put it? Or just leave the bucket as it is?

I don't have one on the KS, and there's no need for it on the MLC I have.

[Dart]

Nope. I took it off my KS when I got it.

I pulled it off of my wife's KS.

Keep in mind that in the movie, they do it fast and most people wont noticed it.

If in the movie they crack it or break it, they just slap a new ones.

 

However in the real world as we are right now, care and durability is paramount, especially if you are trooping a lot.

So we had to choose between durability/comfortable to movie accurate.

OK thanks guys, I know what to do now then! ;0)
