Not many ESB TK helmets on E-Bay, but I'm having trouble identifying it. Any ideas? E-BAY AUCTION |

Total Rip off. Look at the super soft details, It must be a re-cast of a Meatstock helmet IMO. The ear caps have the shape of a TE mkI which is the source of the Meatstock helmet. The traps, tear drops are so soft the details almost look like they were painted on a flat surface, lol. |

Well, from what I know, seller is a major re-caster... so whatever he's selling, it had to be someone else's product. TE pretty much said that they were casts off his helmets. |

The decals are the wrong colour arent they ? didnt the ESB lids have a blue tinge to the trapazoids and teardrops ? |

Also, the fiberglassing job is sub-standard, very thin in places... or so I've been told... I disagree, the original ESB helmets had grey decals. Under certain studio lightnings they appeared blue or even purple, but that was just a trick of the light. As grey is a very neutral colour, it is highly prone to colour shifts due to lighting and photographic conditions. |
