Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, Type ... Thin Chinstrap, Thick Chinstrap, Classic Style Helmet,
Crash-Helmet, Helmet Old, Helmet New ... no preference - every name is fine for me.
guys, english is not my native language ;-) finding a part I've never used before in a model
is always a guessing game. today I was looking for a BURP (Big Ugly Rock Piece), but there
was no BURP under /B. ultimately I had to flick through the whole d*** library: Brick 10 x 8 x 4,
Mountain, Panel, Stone, Wall?
you see, the name-business is yours.
