| Helmet Comparisons | 
  
    | Its not until you start to look
that you realise the different types of helmets available. And whether they're
licensed or fan-made, the difference in quality is huge. The photos below show
the real helmets (of which there where many variations in most cases), and the
different licensed and non-licensed versions. Note that in almost all cases, due
to them being essentially 100% hand-made, they are understandably FAR superior to
their licensed equivalents. |
