justjoseph63[Staff] Posted November 6, 2022 Report Posted November 6, 2022 I need a specific style of gray bucket padding for an upcoming project, but after looking at literally hundreds online I have had no luck finding anything even close. It may be out of production or is made for a specific type of helmet (bicycle, motorcycle, ATV etc.) for all I know, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask if anyone has any resources. Thanks! 1 Quote
Chemi[Staff] Posted November 6, 2022 Report Posted November 6, 2022 Hello @justjoseph63. I think that helmet is from a hot toys (sideshow collectibles) figure, specifically for a 2009 comic-con exclusive figure. I found on Facebook someone who makes these interiors. You can take an eye on it, and see if it's what you're looking for. I will pass the info to you privately, and if you consider it is valid and can be shared with all members, you can post it here later. 1 Quote
Sn4k3 Posted November 26, 2022 Report Posted November 26, 2022 I would love an interior helmet like that. If the source is good please let me know Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted November 26, 2022 Author Report Posted November 26, 2022 The reason I needed this was for a display I am working on... an exact copy of the TK bucket interior as shown in the first photo. It's an unusual shape (pic 2) which probably hasn't been made in years. I ordered a "replica" from a seller on FB which looked to be fairly close and somewhat thick(ish) (pic 3). This is what I received. It appears to be "molded" in one piece, but is definitely a fan-made sculpt using thin craft (EVA) foam. Although very flexible, the details are way too rough looking (first pic below) and at 5mm thick way too thin (second pic below) to use for this project. Still on the hunt if anyone knows a source. 2 Quote

Nairy[Staff] Posted December 2, 2022 Report Posted December 2, 2022 I searched for hockey helmet interiors and found @dashrazor posted the interior of his helmet, and the pads looks extremely similar to the cutaway Quote
Nairy[Staff] Posted December 2, 2022 Report Posted December 2, 2022 We are on the right track with hockey helmets I think Quote
