Hey guys,
I'm new to this, bought a used FX suit with a Moncal/Trey Nichols helmet. It needed so much rework I should have just started fresh. Any way, knowing the FX helmets were frowned upon I was pretty proud of my Moncal bucket. Then I went to a 501st members house and he pointed out how "soft" the details were on my helmet (frown, eye "droops" etc). So on an impulse with intent of simply displaying it, I bought the new EFX Sandtrooper helmet. I must say after trying it on, it was easier to put on, more room, and much easier to see out of.
Now, I know it's big, and frowned upon for being symetrical, but from an MEPD standpoint, is it frowned upon as much with that lid as an FX?
I will probably keep and use both, but the actual trooping appears that it would be much more comfortable and viewable out the EFX bucket.
Please take it easy on me, new to this and seeking honest opinions, not helmet bashing
