Here's a new line of 48th scale modern fighter pilot helmets from Doctor Pepper Resins.

There are 3 different types available:

  • Combat Edge Helmets

  • Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System Helmets

  • HGU 55P Helmets

In the package, you get 4 helmets in a light-colored resin and a length of guitar wire to be used for the oxygen hose.

The details, engraving and casting are very well done, and will make a nice addition to your pilot and model.

For prep, simply cut off the pouring stub at the base of each "head", and wash with soapy water. Paint, and then attach with super glue.
