[Luke Warmwater]

I just saw the movie today and identified the helmet worn by Taejo Togokhan as a Gath watersports/swiftwater rescue helmet.

That was fast!

Great detective work :thumbsup

 

[Kadajiroth]

Yeah, that was fast. Cool-looking helmet.

 

[Luke Warmwater]

Being a swiftwater rescue instructor has some advantages. :lol

 

[Ramiel]

Quite pricy, but a damn good-looking helmet!
I'll try to find a used one on eBay, then I'll paint it flat black, and then... I will play with my new sci-fi helmet!

 

[obiwan2]

Wow that is a really cool helmet. Nice find!

 

[Kerr Avon]

It looks like a Gforce Helmet!

 

[bleyd]

Great find dude

If I had that helmet, I would wear it constantly. You could not get it off of my head. :lol

 

[DarthCalibar]

Screen grabs possibly? I cant find any on google of him in that helmet so far.

I have to agree. Make a custom visor for it and BAM! You got a GForce Helmet

Here's one of him holding it.

The Gath site Luke Warmwater linked to only has micro-sizes listed, so I got mine from Nigel and Kristin at:

They had the white one in stock this past weekend; dunno know how they're doing now.

Maybe we can do a graphic novel together some day!

Can anyone do a tinted "beak" visor to fit this helmet?

Something along these lines?

Wow, one of these would be a pretty good base for a Cyclone (Robotech) helmet too!

Hot damn, Sarge! You are right. How did I not see that in there too. Would not take much work at all to modify that into a CVR-3 Body Armor helmet.
