On the troopers, how were the helmets constructed? Was there every a diagram explaining them? Were they one piece pull-overs or two-piece helmet and faceplate?
On the faceplate portion, were the eyes visored with white-covered eye holes, or was the black band with white eyes meant to be the upper face in shadow?

No particular reason I'm asking. No reason at all...

I can't remember seeing a breakdown of the Shadows helmets. But if you looks at this pic:

The baron is handing a recruit a Red Shadows uniform. Look closely at the helmet, there doesn't appear to be a faceplate, so I would venture a guess and say that they are 2 part helmets.

If you want any more information, you can't do any better than to come to the HOME of the Red Shadows and Action Force:

Thanks! Between the pic of the Baron handing him the uniform, and the large pic of the charging trooper, it does look like it is two-piece, and the faceplate portion has a hole in it, making the black band a shadow and the white eyes just his eyes.

I'll admit I lurk at bftb, but I don't know why I didn't think to ask this over there. Maybe I didn't want my first post to be a begging one. *L*
