Ricecracker Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Hi again, everyone! I'm now looking for a very rare piece, the fireman's helmet in red. They're aren't any on Bricklink right now, so I've turned to you for help. Let me know if you have one, and we'll work out a deal.
Shadows Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Good luck, but seeing a part listed in a colour it doesn't normally appear in got my attention. After consulting with the Queen of the Clones, it seems that the red fire helmets may actually be Best Lock parts. The fact that the only two on BL sold for .50 each is enough to raise some doubts. I'd still buy a couple at .50 to try my luck since it is a common test colour, but it would have to be the right kind of seller.

I did contact Magicbricks to see what they know about it.

jonwil Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) The white one is the LEGO one. Edited February 5, 2010 by jonwil
Brickadier General Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 I think you're going to have a pain of a time finding them. Once, I ordered what were advertised as red fireman helmets from a BrickLink seller. When I received them, they were the white ones. I don't think I've ever seen a legit red fireman helmet.
Piranha Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 You had me at rare part But as mentioned the red fire helmet is not a genuine LEGO part
