i went back to my old flat yesterday to collect some things and in amongst my stuff were these, i must admit i forgot all about them and they have been sitting in the flat for the past 3 years
first up the Helmet
I bought this in either 1991 or 1993 cant remember which or even where i bought them from i do remember being told at the time it was a stunt helmet ??? it cost me about £130 if i recall
The helmet itself is a proper steel one with dents on the top roughly where the crown of your head would be.
The camera (which was originally brown, but i repainted as a kid because i wasnt keen in the brown colour at which time i was sure it was grey lol )
The lobster plates do have a green foam padding on the back but its not the roll matt stuff its just like a very hard sponge. the actuall plate is not metal and im a little unsure what its made from to be honest
The Ear peice has a solid ear bit rather than a foam one but it is hollow so your ear sits inside.
There is no IR sight or even maks where one could have been, and there is no Surname on the back of it.
Heres the Pics.........
Now for the pulse rifle
After i bought the Helmet i saved up again and got the Pulse this was in 1994 and cost £100 again i cant remember where from (possibly the same shop/seller ) but it was listed as a "background prop"
Its made from resin and is quite heavy there was no ammo counter just a black section so i painted the 94 in to show what year i purchased it in when i recieved it its about the same size as my G&P one, on the left side just above the grenade launcher there is some damage that you can see in the pic.
any help on these would be appreciated
Cheers
