What I like about the helmets are that there is a different color visor. NICE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"209\" height=\"82\" src=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/UNSC-Marine-Gear-backpack-helmets.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32664\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a LOT of additional pouches, thigh straps and other armor. There IS a crate included in this set to store all of this stuff. It&#8217;s a bit small though.
