tcmt helmets are made in china like everything else .

I used to work for a German company...one of the guys there had some land where some famous battle was fought...he was tilling a garden and found one of those German helmets with the spike on top...dug it up...still had a skull in it.

If it's the former, he wouldn't be buying a half helmet.

Around here German style helmets go hand in hand with shoulder height ape hangers. All we need is an orangutan....

I'll never understand the attraction to Neo **** ANYTHING, ever! Tens of millions of people died at the hands of these low life scum! Over 400,000 US military died during WW2 fighting to defend our freedoms from these POS! IMHO, sporting a german helmet to emphasize your a bad *** is insulting to say the least, disrespectful at the most!!

On the other hand, for less than $20 Darwin would probably win the battle!

Sorry for getting on a soap box, but I get tired of hearing how the ****'s are the most incarnate evil thing ever ever EVAR!!! Yes, they are bad. But there are actually far worse people and times in human history and we tend to just glaze over it by making the ****'s into this paramount of super evil.

If Murder and Genocide are bad... then these symbols of murderous communist leaders should be looked at with the same repugnant as Hitler and imagery of the **** Third Rich. Instead they are trendy, cute and fun!!

As for that Garbage helmet for $20...

It is made in China, notice the 500 other exact same helmets being sold on eBay, Alibaba, Aliexpress and BangGood. It was never tested because there is now way for the DOT to actually track down and Fine a Manufacturer/Seller.

Watch the video above about helmets made in India and notice the huge quality difference between "branded" and "non branded" helmets. Might as well be wearing a baseball cap. Then again wearing anything less then a 3/4 is just stupid.
