While browsing the internet I stumbled upon this pic. It appears to be a one piece design (possibly FG)

Does anyone knows its origins?

Its hard to tell leo from that 1 photo as the helmet is out of proportion due to the camera being too close. It does look like a 1 pice construction so i am guessing fibreglass, i dont think that it is a te, sfs cast. Looks more like the AP type helmet. Do you have any more pics? |

I agree it's not the best of pics, but it's the only pic I have. Found the original link: http://www.funkymonkeyprops.com/userimages/043.JPG |

Looking at the frown...it may be a recast R/T mod helmet. Found a pic in my photobucket...not the same angle..but its an R/T mod lid.

By the way...the pic I posted came from Jez's site. In the R/T mod section. Hope you don't mind Jez. |

The frown definitely has that RT look. IMO the ears are quite different though and the teardrops on the RT are much softer. |

Here is another shot...opposite angle. This isn't the same lid but it was a recast in fg kit for sale on ebay a few years ago.

Looks to be a RT or a copy of to me, don't forget there's what 4 different versions of helmet RT has made ? |

Correct, it's an RT V2, or a copy of. I don't believe there are that many V2 helmets out there as the vast majority are V3s and V4s. EDIT: And a couple more shots of a V2

Thanks for the info guys. I agree, it's a RT, but I still think the ears look different from the ones usually seen on a RT. |

Its not an RT. You can see the 'stye' in the eye. This isn't present in the RT-Mods. I'd say its an AP recast. |

Hard to say with this picture, but according to me, the faceplate is close to a Cameron Oakley (ugly vocoder and wide tooth in the middle) Picture from TK 409 website:
