NME props helmets - are they all approvable?
« on: Jul 05, 2018, 07:37 PM »
I had to put my armor project on hold for a while due to lack of spare money to throw at it, but now that I'm getting back on track I've been looking at helmets again.  Originally I had planned to go with an NME props assassin helmet, which I'm pretty sure is accepted by the mercs - however, their website has several new helmet designs that I'm curious about.

https://www.nmeprops.com/product-page/the-rc
This one is based on a republic commando helmet design, and frankly I like the bulkier/more rugged look compared to the traditional fett/jango style buckets, but given that it looks quite different I'm not sure whether it is an approved bucket for the mercs.

The RC is NOT approvable for a Mando build and the Death Stalker is but only with a T-visor and, as they note on their site, for Late Crusader builds only.

Correct. The RC is a Republic Commando helmet that is not approvable for mandalorians. All helmets minus the Ventress bounty hunter and the RC are approvable for modern era, except for the deathstalker which is Crusader only.

The assassin is a good choice. Or my personal favorite of their line the Stalker helmet.

I wholeheartedly endorse the Stalker.

I have a Stalker as well, and I highly recommend anything NME makes. They are incredible helmets. Since you're in San Antonio, you might try getting together with our Mercs up there and trying one on. Val Sedam and Ruusaan Sedam both have them.

If you're looking for something similar to the RC, check out Dha Bral's Mando ComMando helmet: http://mandalorianmercs.org/forum/index.php?topic=149617.0

Why isn't the TT approvable? Just curious and I really like the look of it.

Because we don't see the TT in references for Modern era Mandalorians -- we see it with Crusader Era.
