Which kind of material you have chosen? It looks very sharp so i would say it's not painted? |

Thanks guys! This helmet is PVC, painted white. I chose pvc because is more durable and robust than abs. |

Mate. Absolutely an awesome lid! Well done. This is The best trooper out there. So accurate! Is PVC the same stuff as the originals were made from? The flexible khaki material ? I've got one from RS & got it detailed with a chipper look to show the Khaki underneath, but I forget what it's made of & they don't mention it on the plaque. Great show - thanks for sharing! Mike |

Thanks Mike, unfortunately I'm not a big expert, but I think the khaki material you are referring to is the HPDE. I chose the PVC, not super accurate, but more durable. |

Cheers, HDPE sounds correct. Yours looks pretty good as it appears that the details have carried over, such as the 'wart' on the left side of his forehead . Looks fantastic mate, good one. |

The green RS helmets are made of PP, not HDPE. Unless they changed something without telling the community, which I doubt they would. |

Especially when we know that Khaki HDPE is very hard to find (except with custom orders of a huge amount of plastic) and that "grey PP" (it's the name in France, but it looks khaki) is more a standard. |

I don't know about RS helmets, what I know (heard) is that the original stunt helmets were made of hdpe. |
