Count everything you find wrong with this helmet.

:D Ron

No.... I have not yet counted. :P
 
Hey Ron,
For learning purposes, I've spotted the following:
> Spike too thin ('skinny' as opposed to 'pregnant')
> Cockades misplaced (should be centered vis-a-vis the leather body semi-circles)
> Overall haube shape seems wrong.
Anything else? The wappen seems correct, isn't it?
 
Yeah,
Retainers are wrong, chin strap, and I don't know what that loyalty pin is about... something about a member. gold member???
It's a total mess.

:D Ron
 
Ron, I feel happy that I will not spend my hard-earned money on utter crap like this :D

Best regards,

Edwin
