I know this has been posted before, but a different take here. One of the things that makes our traditional helmets so awesome is the minimalist buffalo. On our black helmets, it looks like they slapped a sticker on it -> quite different.

Yeah, okay, so you can see the clear outline on the gold helmet at this distance, but not from afar, and I like how it is less busy.
I wonder what it would have looked like on the black helmet to do the buffalo in gold without a stripe on the outside so it is just an opposite of the look of the gold helmet with a black buffalo? I can't make up my mind if that would have worked or sucked.
To extend that thought - I'd like to see the black buffalo from the gold helmet on the silver and white ones to see what it would look like.
