This poll is same as the weapon and armour polls. Except for helmets. I just hope TLC is taking notes. 8)

A crown? I thought about adding that but, technicl-ly a crown is not a helmet.(all the previous kings just wanted to feel special with a helmet made out of gold.)

I voted for a prussian helmet because it has a spike on top, so it can be used in any theme.

Greek.

Mainly because I like its aesthetic look the most, which is a purely personal opinion. This is irregardless of what particular style of Greek helmet we are discussing.

For what its worth, I would use none of them in their proper context, so it really doesn't matter to me.

I chose 'other,' because I'm actually pretty happy with the selection that's been offered to us. I wouldn't mind seeing some more visored or grilled type helms to go with the Euro armor, but if we don't see any more, I won't care. I also wouldn't mind see some more fantastical helmets, but I can't think of anything in particular that I would like.
I'd be much happier if LEGO put out some more castle friendly hats and some more hairstyles. Of course, that's only because I can't find a hair piece for my sig fig that actually resembles me (medium length, parted in the middle).
I think the best situation would be if LEGO stopped making new, unnecessary molds and just included more of the styles they've already made. Lots of variety is great if you're making lots of specialized figures, but I'd much rather see a lot of a few types of helmets so I can build some uniform armies. Besides, new molds mean higher costs for LEGO, which means that we pay more for a set.

I'm rather pleased with Red Bean's Viking and Greek helmets, so I voted for Roman, though there are a variety of Greek helmets I'd like to see.

I use the stocking caps that come with a lot of the newer town sets as skull caps.

Yeh....... A viking theme would be awesome..... I also agree that Red bean's stuff is awesome, but a variatly in greek and roman helmets/armor would be awesome.

Hey maybe these 'rouge knights' will be greek/roman. :mrgreen:

I think it's good for a skull cap or arming cap.

I'm quite pleased with the helmet poll compared to others because people are voting for different things, not just one.

I voted egyptian, not because i think it would be useful, or because i would use it in my army, but nobody else really voted for it, and i would have liked to see what type of egyptian helmets TLC might come out with.
