Thanks Gaston!!! The leg and arms armour is dark grey .... I could not find a dark grey helmet to fit the gryphon... but after a small search... 5886 - Knights With Fancy Shields Duo-Pack is the oly set that has a dark grey helmet like that!!!....

Nope Panos, you're wrong! The dark grey helmets I use come from the Easter egg knight from 200? The griffon knight. He also has a dark grey dagger which was exclusive to this set (with the  shield and the pointed gark grey visor...)
I couldn't find a picture of the knight alone, so it's the second from the right on this pic.

Btw, seen this helmet before?

Sorry did not notice your remark there Arnaud. Yes I know this helmet but unfortunately the red gryphon crest cannot stand on this helmet...

ok I see what you mean... how did you fit that visor there?

Btw, the red gryphon crest still does not fit/sit properly on the helmet...

I too am curious...?
Did you drill the holes on the visor larger? ???

Clever guys at last! It required some work with a power drill and burrs (but I have plenty of those :P). Just compare with one you have and you'll see the differences.
2 Panos: Yeah but the red feather does fit, so what? I only bought 12 of those Eagle heads!

Cheers
