I think it looks amazing, very much like my RS helmet.
Really? don't get me wrong its a steal at the $350 but to say its like a RS!

I meant more the overall shape, not the fine details. I've seen many bootlegs, recasts, knock-offs, Rubies and Don Post, that didn't get the overall shape correct.
I see, would love to see pics of a Anovos next to a RS which is the closest to the real deal, the whole eye section is wrong, mic tips are wrong, the screws, the ears ect.... even the shape actually, the flare at bottom rear of neck is different from screen used helmets, even the frown corners I don't see the very last dimple, its just empty.

The regret is comin' in full force now...:cry
Your concern about weathering and item storage is valid, but without specific examples it is vague and appears as a justification for correcting flaws that are not a result of weathering and storage. The head bump is on the plastic from the vac form and is visible on screen, albeit under enamel paint and slightly diminished. Less visible on others, as the vac form buck degraded over time during production, I've read. Not sure on the specifics of how the bump came to be though, but it wouldn't have happened after production unless the HDPE had been reheated (it looks like a thermoformed blemish)
Don't take it personally, just go read some more eye bleedingly long threads on other forums and understand why the RS armour is the choice for those wanting to get as close to the real thing as possible. I thought the same about idealising an ST helmet before I read all the info I could. Ultimate possible is different to ultimate available.
@James- What RS is that? It doesn't look like the usual RS. It looks smooth and clean with no bumps and the the shape is a bit different as well. Also it looks a bit smaller then the Anovos. In the Facebook comparison next to an RS it looks like the RS should be slightly bigger than the Anovos and not the other way around.
Not making any allegations, just curious as to what helmet you have there. I Have two RS and this one doesn't look like mine or the other I see online all the time.
I bought it from them in 2005, maybe 2006, when only the helmet was sold before they offered suits.
Gotcha. BTW- After I posted I didn't want you to misinterpret my tone. I was just honestly curious.
Is it bumpy? maybe the picture doesn't show the detail because of the distance and the lighting.
Everything except the black under suit and neck seal came in 1 box.
