ceraurus, would you mind taking comparison shots of the comic pack CGs vs the regular CGs so we can see how compatable the helmets look?

Sure, when I get home from work I'll do it (unless someone beats me to it.)

I think the main difference is in the neck color and something about the back of the head/neack area seems different. Other than that, it's not too noticeable. I'll update later...

I know a picture says 1000 words, but I don't have a camera handy. I did a little comparison and found they fit together pretty well in a lineup. The back of the head near the next is the most evident on a closer look. But it isn't a noticably fatter head.

OK, the pics aren't as nice as they could be, but here they are:

As you can see, from the front, Fred's helmet is shorter and slightly wider. From the side, it's clear that Fred's helmet doesn't go down as far in the back. All in all, it's not too bad, especially when viewing from the front.

I actually think that the CG Fred helmet is more accurate to the old '85 version in terms of the helmet being more shorter and wider, "smashed" if you will.

Great pics. Thanks for information. Interesting.
