Just got notice from Amazon that the shadow version should ship soon!
anybody else worried about the Amazon UK order?
the price seemed too good to be true!
that's not sold by Amazon though... it's just a reseller using their site.I'm confused? The price on Amazon UK for the helmet is £135.84...that's not good!
Got mine this past Sunday and already started doing a few modifications to it -
1) Removed the straps and replaced them with Skydex pads for better fit
2) Removed the screws on both the black and white brackets to take out the blacked out areas of the teeth and to remove the nose piece, then screwed the white bracket back on that retains the mic in place
3) Glued in black screen material for the teeth area.
I might replace the lenses, but I do have to say it is a pretty nice bucket on a budget for sure

Did you feel it necessary to expoxy the three pieces of the helmet together, or did you just snap it as per the directions? Been hesitating putting mine together because I was under the impression it'll need some glue to minimize the seams.
Thought I'd give weathering a go for the first time. Pretty happy with it.

I've never seen one in any store near me.
