pollvx Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Latest update, I am going to be making a few kits hopefully this week, if the 2mm ABS pinseal arrives. Is there anything you guys would need to see incorporated into the helmet kit. I am planning on an accurate decal set, if anybody knows where I can get accurate 3M Speedglas bolts or something similar I would be grateful. From what I've read, 3M changed the outside "bolt" color to black. I have three extra sets of the grey bolts, without headband, however.

Yes I posted this up somewhere, the headbands are still the same, your grey bolts seem to be getting very rare. I have made the visor bolt holes to allow a 3M bolt to fit flush. the new type would work as well.
Darth Voorhees Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I wouldnt need anything special..just tell me where to send the money! LOL!

Junglie Scout Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 WANT ONE NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TB-8719 Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I would be very interessed and excited to have a LW helmet for my new Scout project! keep us informed!
Guest jpc3190 Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 definitely put me down on the list for one of these kits. just let me know when and where to send payment and how much when the project is all finished. sweeet
Guest Shale Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 WOW!!! Just amazing there LW! I'd love to be put on a list for interest in these. The chin strap cup just made my day, the whole deal looks awesome. Are you currently doing any of these kits and how much of a line do you have? Should I send a PM for more details? Thanks, I am glad to have found this thread.
lonewolf Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Thanks for all the encouragment and costructive comments guys, this thread has gone on forever! The lid is now of a good enough quality to offer, the main problem is the assembly , as the originals seemed to have as well judging by the different versions still available to study.
TB-8719 Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Amazing looking helmet! Can't wait to order one, the construction would be a pain in my behind..
ukscout Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 John, Helmet looks awesome Just wondering, as their is no other TB helmet out their in the prop community built the same as a original helmet and yours being the first replica helmet so close to the original helmet - what's your thoughts on how strong is the helmet is once glued together? also still interested in a kit BTW
Guest Shale Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Will you be offering this as a kit as well as a final assembled product?
lonewolf Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 John, Helmet looks awesome Just wondering, as their is no other TB helmet out their in the prop community built the same as a original helmet and yours being the first replica helmet so close to the original helmet - what's your thoughts on how strong is the helmet is once glued together? also still interested in a kit BTW It is very strong, the only incident was a punch to the back of my head whilst wearing my second version, a small crack in the filler was all that happened, the glued parts were still solid. Using ABS glue is the key I think as it welds the two parts together.
ukscout Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 thanks for the reply John, I was wondering how strong the original helmets where as the prop store helmet has a cracked lens and no damage to the lid - which made me think that the helmets where a bit flexiable
lonewolf Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Yes Berry , I have a very small amount of these in kit form, pm me if you are interested. I really need to get my finger out, work keeps getting in the way. 2
