No problem, I'm glad the little review was helpful. I don't have my camera at my house at the moment, but I should have pictures up in a few days.

That crack in the back of the rubber molding on the bottom of the helmet is fairly common, even in real helmets. That's where the seam is for the rubber trim, and apparently it likes to pull apart there. Not a huge deal.
As for it looking a bit big on your head, that should easily be rectified once you get a headset (Comtacs or Sordins). Better that it looks a bit big without them than a bit small.

Yup, I should be ordering some ztactical comtacs once I get my next paycheck. I would have gotten them sooner, but I just bought a vtac sling and an ops core harness, which put me behind on $ a bit. Hopefully the ztactical version is at least functional, since real comtacs are pretty pricey, and seem to be rarer on ebay than sordins right now. I would buy the real sordins from ebay but I don't have the cash to spend on getting the impedance sorted out. If nothing else, I'll at least get a civvie mic out of the replicas that I can plug into real comtacs to match the impedance of civilian radios. As for the crack, I did notice that on cqbr's helmet in the ODA pic topic, the only thing is that the gap in mine is quite a bit bigger and more noticable, but whatever, I should be able to clean it up easily. Edit: Okay, here are some pics. Tell me what you think. I know it still needs a bit, I'm planning to get some ess profiles, a vip strobe, and eventually a wilcox/replica (when it comes out) L2G05 mount. And a pic of the gap in the rubber rim. I can't help being annoyed by it even though real ones have it too. It just seems bigger, off center, and crooked on mine. Do you guys notice it too?
