94medition Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I think the black "visor" on top is painted (standard color red, yellow and blue). I guess the stripe (arrow) that matches the top visor color is decal. I asked the seller about the color and received an email today with some new pictures of the top visor in red. It does look better than the initial pictures. I will post the pictures when I get home tonight. Hopefully they will make the stripe smaller. I'm still not sure whether I should get the color one or get the plain one. 505thAirborne, is the white color of the plain helmet painted? Do I need to prime it if I decide to paint it? Quote
oshanmacross Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 94medition: What email address are you using? My emails to them either bounce or get no response. Quote
94medition Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 These are the photos I got in the email this morning. It is a lot better but not perfect. You can still see some "ripples" on some edges. Quote
Vi-RS Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 The visor in these pictures appears to be painted, but I'm not sure about the first picture where it's mounted on the helmet. It'd be the mold to begin with if it wasn't the paint drippings or runs. Quote
moy Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 just got a email from masei will get mine in ten days. Quote
HG Blows Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Has anyone gotten an invoice for the remaining payment? Totally forgot i preordered one of these. Quote
oshanmacross Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Not I, But I am waiting for the colored version. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Payed for mine. I'm hoping by the new pics the visor will be painted and the arrow will be the graphic decal to aid in cover that pic screw. Quote

Jasonc Posted September 17, 2014 Author Posted September 17, 2014 I sent an email to ask for details about the update, and got a response about the balance I owed and the statement that it'd be around November. That said, final payment has been made and I now am in wait for the helmet. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Not bad, glad I ordered one Hope they manage a way to apply the decals perfectly on the finished product. Debating if I should get an extra one in yellow Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Still would like to see completed photos with the final decals applied. Quote

Phalanix Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 Bah... I was contemplating a black and yellow scheme like the one shown a few posts up. Kinda regret not going forward with it... XD Quote

moy Posted September 23, 2014 Posted September 23, 2014 Delayed until next week Hope it gets here before mwcon. Quote
Phalanix Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 I just fired off yet another email... hopefully I'll get my pre-order settled up here soon. Same, sent them an e-mail on the remainder of payment and when the helmets will be done (got a Focker version). No reply yet. Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Looks great but I could do without the extra font M-911, UN Spacy logo, and incorrect coloring on top of the helmet. I hope that is NOT in the final version. Quote
Smiley424 Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Thanks 505thAirborne for you sizing review. I am a whole lot more comfortable with my size choice now. I can't wait! Quote
Raya1823 Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Man, finally got my invoice for this minus my original PO amount, I'm being told it will ship in Nov. Cool Quote
