Hmmm, the metal approach to helmets. I haven't seen that before, but, it sure as hell is unusual, as everyone goes for a paint look, and I haven't seen helmets made to look like other materials (wood, stone, cloth)

I want to see a helmet that looks like an Easter Island moai


The prehistoric Rapanui people made nearly 900 giant stone statues and carvings, the largest of which weigh 74 tonnes and stand 10m tall - the height of a three-floor building. The Moai were positioned to form a ring around the island, facing inland.

Most are found around the coast, and were built sometime between the years 1200 and 1600.

the location of these monuments makes tremendous sense: they are positioned where fresh water is immediately available,” Dr Lipo said.

“Fortunately, water beneath the ground flows downhill and ultimately exits the ground directly at the point at which the porous subterranean rock meets the ocean.

“When tides are low, this results in the flow of freshwater directly into the sea. Humans can thus take advantage of these sources of freshwater by capturing the water at these points.”

Because, the Easter Island enigma is one of the last mysteries, as there simply were a lot of people there, and no source of fresh water, very little food supply, etc etc. Someone ought to make a movie, with a great story and plot, as no one can prove any theory wrong. There's just no evidence of anything, from what I remember from reading about these statues
