As Gino pointed out it already happened with other recasters.
Even Bill Clinton admitted he lied about the Lewinski matter.

Your entire accuse is based on comparison pics in which we don't even see the entire faceplate, so we can't even tell if it's a TM or not.
We should at least see the entire faceplates and the details photographed in the same space with the same background.
I ask Ghosttrooper if he can do that too, since his pictures are clearer and more telling.
I'm still opened to evidence, but since you can't provide decent one I say that the ultimate word must be a confession.

That's what that whole line of thought reminds me of.

Behave will you nobody needs an English lesson from people that bastardised the English language
DON'T get me started on linguistic butchery! BOTH ths U.K.,and the U.S. are guilty of horrible mispronunciations,mis-spellings,syntax(grammer usage)slang,and coloquialisms! But,THAT is another topic for another thread,entirely,as this is an off topic subject in this thread,and all comments like this may be removed from this thread,if the moderators deem it to be necessary! Back to the topic please!:rolleyes

Hell, it's all fun and games NOW. Your question was answered on the first page.
Yes my question was answered on the first page of my thread!
So if you are going to be rude I suggest you start your own!:lol

Are you serious ?
People point out at least half a dozen things where the sculpt of TM's helmet is different from Gino's or TE's not small details actual structure but to you these differences say the things a recast.
Gino says the faceplate matches the Gino/TE face almost exactly and that is enough for you even though you've already been told at least half a dozen major differences.
TM is automatically lying to you rather than Gino is wrong on what grounds ?
Is it because like Gino you think it's impossible to sculpt something like that ?
Forgive my lunatics logic but i would have thought similarity rather differences would point to it being recast. :rolleyes
And now the magic bump yes absolute conclusive evidence not only does the bump move on the two helmets that do have it it's a good few mm across and prominent enough on the form anyone would see it instantly if they were cleaning up tells is left intact.
That to me is beyond coincidence also because i can't see how someone can clean up a helmet removing tells that are so small they wouldn't ever be visible on the outside would miss it.
So in conclusion if something looks similar to an original in any form that to you screams recast ?
wow i guess practically everything on this board must be either cast from original or recast to you then.
I mean there's just no possible way anybody can sculpt or scratchbuild anything that good right.
I'm glad you're a lawyer and not a judge.

A lot of people here said that you can't confront assembled helmets since the assembly can change the width and shape of the faceplate.
Well, take a faceplate or a helmet and try squishing it from the sides.
It won't bend, maybe just a little, because the complexity of the formed shape mantains it solid. Try that for yourselves.
When you assemble the helmet you just adapt the back's sides to the faceplate, not the other way around.
So the bird's eye views overlay has value.
Different focal distances only change things closer to the camera (the dome), it doesn't affect the far profile near the pavement.
The TM is FLAT.
That's what I really don't like about it. The flatness leads to straighter eyes, as other members here had pointed out.
If he sculpted the faceplate from scratch that's a clear evidence that he did mainly with front view pictures where you have no depth, and that explains to me why the TM helmet is spot on only from a particular POV, but falls apart from others.
