    Made in India ...... designed by .........what, aardvarks???????
    I thought imitation was what the LCC ( low cost countries ) did best but check out this abomination!!!!

    I can't see a SINGLE aspect to it that comes remotely close - it's like the toolmaker was given a 2 second glimpse of a helmet and left to his own imagination!
    'made from 18ga steel' .... that's the thickness of a car door!!

    Pity the sucker that buys this one off 'Eek Bay' ......

    I don't have a problem with accurate replica World War German helmets, but this one is not even remotely close. Very poor
