Anchor has had the blossom hand painted in orange. The helmet was an alvacado green but was repainted in a high gloss brown/green. It speaks Japanese and is my favorite helmet. It has the strongest smell of any helmet I have ever had. It has a spot that looks like wear from striking grenades on it. The net is an original not original to the helmet.
