Minor nit:  These two rules conflict.  The Classic Space/Castle helmet
hasn't been officially released as an LDraw part.  Which makes it hard to
include classic space mini-figures in an LDraw model.

Roy Earls developed some unofficial versions of the helmet, see them at

That hi-res version sure is a large .dat file, but it looks great in
POV-Ray.  Too bad the helmet doesn't have the same insertion point as the
official helmet element.  (I guess I could just mess with the file,
though.)
