Purple Priders I need your help!!

**purple punk 56** · 02-28-2007, 08:17 PM

My fellow Viking fans I truly don't know where to turn other then here in the forums.
I recently put in enough over time hours to FINALLY buy myself a Official Vikes Helmet!!!! I know. . . thanks everyone.
Here's where you all come in.
I want a different face mask other then the one that's on it now.
It came with the Q. B.
cage and I'm looking to get the RIDDELL RJOP-DW cage like the one our Stud Linebacker E. J.
Henderson wears.
I've looked on the net and I just can't seem to find a Vikes Dark Purple cage.
All I find are the plain Jane ones that are for High School teams and what not.
No Vikes!!!

Please. . . Help out a fellow Packer Hater who's looking to bring out the best in his new Viking Official Team Helmet by giving him sites or even e-mail addresses that will give me a Real Viking cage.

Thanks everyone!!! Playoffs this Year and we beat the Pac both times!!!!!!!!!

I have never seen one outside the standard one that comes on all helmets, I rember when I worked in a sport merchandise store and getting asked that question I thought it had something to do with le4gality reasons and something to do with the way that the helmet would stand when displayed. I assumed that you have tried teh Ridell ciompany directly? But I am sure that you would be talking even more bucks if you could purchase the facemask. Or just sneak into Winter park and just steal E.J.'s helmet ;D

Oh and Welcome to the site

Right?

And they have it available in purple as well.
I dont know if it is the right kind of purple, but worth a try or a phone call.

Here is the link:

Ridell makes them as well for less than Schutt does. You will also need the hardware. It too is available in purple. Here's the Ridell link;

So where and how is the new helmet going to be displayed?
I need to get good ideas for what I am in the process of doing in the "Vikings Room" downstairs.

Come on everyone jump in, I love what Singer has going on.
I was thinking about somehow mounting one on my wall.
Just dont know how I might go about that.
