Modernizing the MICH 2000 Full Airsoft Helmet Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 окт 2016
- Turning an idea into reality. Thanks to Lancer Tactical for supporting this build (www.lancertactical.com). The plan is to take the fading MICH 2000 Helmet and update it with new modern hardware to make it more modular and comfortable. Then to continue the build by painting the helmet and setting up an easy flip down goggle and mesh mask system. Follow this tutorial for inspiration and instructions.

I miss the old MICH helmets, hell I miss GI kits. Everyone goes for the special forces/seal team/leet oper8dur kits these days, no one seems to do general issue infantry kits or standard Marine kits anymore. Russian kit enthusiasts seem to be the only people who do anything with standard issue equipment.
i believe the blue diamond group still does regular MC infantry kits.
soulreaper9090 Heard about them, but they really are a rare breed.
Honestly I prefer the look of regular loadouts compared the SF loadouts, idk why, something about the gear I guess
Freedomizer Yeah I'm not sure what it is about standard issue loadouts that draws me towards them either. Although when I go to a WW2 game and see an entire squad of dudes who put effort into getting matching standard issue kits I greatly appreciate the effort they put into them. Perhaps its just the "effort" side of GI kits that does it?
CasInbound I agree, I prefer the "grunt" gear i ordered an M88 yesterday
Wow, that was surprising more drop-in with the straps than I would have expected. Awesome video!
I love how you come up with this kind of ideas out of nowhere keep the work man.
Too much fun.
The helmet came out great! Awesome innovations as usual!
+Lancer Tactical thanks for the support guys 👍
I'm starting a new airsoft team. One of the members was wondering if you could give us supplies... maybe... please...
@@thegulfwarairsofter1352 Realistically speaking, your first step should be to have a channel and keep it running with a solid fanbase. Lots of kids start a team which dissolves shortly before they enter college or start working. If you can't keep up regular gameplay footage no company will want to advertise on your platform since you don't have the money or time to realistically advertise their brand/products. Airsoft has expanded greatly since a decade ago. Sponsorship today means more than getting free stuff and parading it around or doing a review or two, it means actually being part of the industry and committed to it (unless you hit hundreds of millions of views like Dude Perfect to the point that people will scramble to get a piece of your popularity).
My personal suggestion if you are serous is to produce and market your own products similar to what Brain Exploder does. This was a lot more difficult a decade ago but 3D printing has opened doors for the layman. However 3D printing does cut heavily into your profits and/or pricing compared to other more efficient means of manufacturing so you have to weigh your priorities. Anything that shows you are seriously in this game will increase your chance of being sponsored (obviously not if your product is a competitor to the company that may sponsor you of course). Example is Airsoftology, he really has next to no following in comparison to many other channels, but this guy has been around since practically day one with the podcasts and he does get around to all kinds of companies and distributors so he is fairly well known. All he really has is silly patches but he has a pretty solid presence in the industry so he is able to get his hands on a lot of new stuff before us consumers can touch it.
thanks for the airsoft gun
ive been planning to do pretty much exactly this but im trying to keep my helmet cover on. i looked at the fast helmet guts and decided it wouldnt fit so this is nice to have in case i want to do that in the future
That's an awsome Helmet setup you really know your stuff
😍😍😍omg I love the kit in the beginning
love these building videos. it's cool that you can build stuff like this.
+Hitman it's fun
Great looking set up !
looks really nice! Especially the face mask mod!
really nice! nearly the same setup i build for myself but im still looking for a good way to integrate my howard leight impact sports for communication and ear protection. keep up the good work!
very well done dude. nice to see new ideas.
+Pygmi Skirmishes thanks :)
BrainExploder dude you inspire me to make smooth fun filled videos.
Looks really nice!
Thanks
BrainExploder hi, can I put a helmet cover to a Mich2000 with rails, please respond me
+leogaming 1 I'm going to say yes but you will have to cut holes for the screws
The Foley oh ok, i got it, thank you very much
BrainExploder are all those guns it's or at a store cause if there yours u are the luckiest person ever and that helmet looks sweet
You're such a genius, no shit! Why this stuff is always so amazing...
How was that cocaine?
Very well made!
Nice build however Brain ^^ Another option for mounting the lower mesh mask to your ESS is to run zip ties between the lower vent grid on the ESS to the upper edge of the mesh mask. A set of zip ties near the nose part and a set near the outer portion of you goggles should do the trip.
Though it might be sold as Lancer Tactical it does however say FMA on the inside of the donor helmet. A nice little info for those of us not living in the US.
Yeah I think they have many brands coming off the same general factory.
The first 2 pics at the start of the vid really making him look like real infantry
Hey Brain, I love what you have done here with the mich. I actually tried this very same thing a few months back with a bump, and mich 2000. I liked the way it fit but the padding I had was horrible. I love the way you trimmed the mesh for your chin and googles. I trimmed one mesh mask for the bump helmet setup I had but with the mich I couldn't figure out a good way to mout the mesh. With the zip ties it seems like it works really well.
Zipties solve 95% of mounting problems, duct tape for the rest.
Great tutorial! I have the same goggles and just threaded two zip ties through the bottom vents to attach the mesh mask, then you don't need to drill the hole in the lens and can easily swap lenses around.
Do you find removing the foam around the goggles on the top and bottom leaves holes that are too big? The long holes seem too bendy to prevent a BB from coming in without foam
finally a good full protection but with the comfortable cheek mask.
you are a genius this is awesome
Good stuff Brain. I was wondering what I could do with my real ACH to improve it. You answered that pretty well. I would add Peltor hearing protection and use the ARC rail adapters that allow it to float just over the ear so you can still hear open ear style but meet the protection requirements of those fields you were speaking of.
Yeah might be a good idea I really hate the electronic headsets had to use them a week ago and remembered why all over again.
Hey, it look like the ops-core sentry, that's pretty cool
I really like your headset projects.
Thanks they are fun.
I bought a real used Mich for $60 on eBay without rails then put a multicam helmet cover and bought a lancer tactical Mich and moved the rails to my real kevlar one over the cover and it looks bad ass
But is it stupid heavy?
It really isnt heavy at all, I run a real kevlar helmet with a rhino mount which adds some weight and you really don't notice after a few minutes. Got mine from the surplus store for $50
Yeah with my Kevlar Mich i barely even notice the difference
flapy24 quick question can I put a acr rails on a Mitch 2000 (with ear protection)
I use a real ACH, and it's about the same weight as one of the thicker repros.
your a true innovator. would ever consider making mounts for other action cameras? i have an ion and im having trouble finding a good mount for a hat or helmet.
I'm sure I speak for a lot of people when I say we can't wait for the gameplay video!
Already recorded, worked really well, just need to edit :)
Kickass vid as always! Try to get the MICH/ACH Helmets with the "Current" Line of Ops-Core Rail Systems (I.E. Slimmer ones)! Anyways, Amazing video man! :DDDDDD
It looks so real
Which part?
When you used the reference photos you had a desert camo on your helmet. Was that a cover or was that spray painted on?
Cool guns ! !
Bad ass looking helmet!
But i also want to know what vest and combat shirt you are using in the start of this video?
thank you! keep up the good work!
I'd definately buy one
you are a gear god
Dang you guys are so cool
Will the bump style goggles with the clips work on the mich 2000? They are the ones that clip on to the bump style hemlets and I was wondering if they would be compatible with the mich 2000.
Have you tried to use ear pro rail adapters that work with ach?
gonna be getting back into airsoft after a long time and I gotta say the enjoyment of airsoft is definitely ruined if you don't have a solid head system with your mask and everything. if your goggles fog it's literally the worst feeling, and you can't even focus on just playing. definitely have to make sure my headgear is on point before getting back
Agreed nothing takes you out of the fight faster than not seeing anything, these goggles are very good especially when combined with an anti fog spray.
This is legit basically exactly what I want a helmet setup to be, but throw some comms in the mix. Wonder if I could pay someone to build me this...
does the gsg9 mask interfere with the straps? i have a mich 2000 with the ops core straps included
inspiring!
So should I paint my mesh mask the same colour design even though I'm tan? I feel like when it's tried it looks pretty tan
Holly shit that shit looks perfect
Very comfortable too.
BrainExploder does anyone make these now?
Can i have a link for the clips you used for the goggles
Hi！is there a video about the musket on your wal?
can i also put a cloth camo cover on it and put the screws through it?
It also provides partial ear protection
I loved your cqb gameplay from about a year or so ago. Are you planning on posting more cqb because I would definetly watch it. Unfortunately forge airsoft closed because your videos from there were great
Yeah Forge was by far my fav CQB field the rest are just so fast paced grind houses. I have really been enjoying playing longer style outdoor games lately.
BrainExploder what I liked about your cqb gameplay is that you can clearly see the enimies you are shooting. that provides interesting and easy to follow gameplay
AWESOME
cn i buy the tan and black one plz?
What kind of goggles did you use for this? I really like the hole pattern under the foam
ESS
Making a hole on the glasses dosn't break the "integrity" of the whole glass and make it easier to get broken by a powerfull BB shot? :?
+KrITIK4L probably doesn't make it any sturdier but seems to not have any negative side effects I've done this to a lot of my goggles with no issues.
Any way I could find rails for my standard mich 2000 helmet?
*Edit:* So like could I purchase the rails from the vented helmet without buying the entire helmets? Or should I just buy the helmet for the Pads, rails, etc.
you have to buy ACH Arc rails
is that a TM SPAS or the new ASG one? would like to see some gameplay/ review
+czechos17787 I do have the new ASG Spas 👍
BrainExploder by any chances does it have the ability to add a folding stock or a full one?
Anyone know where to get that goggle set up, the link in the description leads to a unavailable product on Amazon, if there’s any other sellers available for them please lemme know
The FMA JT Spectra google system is a decent alternative
I clicked the link in the description for the goggles, and amazon said they were out of stock. Are there any alternatives that do the same thing that the ESS ones do?
Valken ones are the same, just not made in the US
Is this the fiberglass one?
what is the cloths you wear (link?)
do FAST battery packs work with MICH?
Good video :)
Thanks for this video. Nice setup, it looks great but... I would never drill hole in my eye protection for any reason. I know, its very nice looking, I know its for sure very comfortable, and I can agree to that. But never, ever I would do anything to compromise my eyes safety in any way.
Can you make a head setup for sniper ??? Please
Nice brother
Thanks mang.
hey I have an idea for a new gadget for airsoft who did you talk to or how did you go about getting a company to talk to you about it
It's not easy, try going to events sponsored by manufacturers they usually have reps there.
Hows the system dealing with comms? And what comms adapt well to this? (I did the same mod to my mich with the FAST dial system a few months ago)
+Diego Landabur I personally don't use coms but you could probably wear something under
MICH stands for Modular Integrated Communications Helmet the gap over the ear is designed to accommodate communications equipment under the helmet
Is there anywhere i can get those clips to attach the goggle without buying the actual goggles themselves? I really like they way they function and it would fit my build perfectly but I dont want to drop another 120$ for just the clips, i already have a really nice pair of goggles.
OLHA aquela svd linda lá no fundo
Try one Tigris mesh mask
Where can i get those super fat pads in the helmet???
Most airsoft stores. I have since put a team wendy suspension in there and its awesome.
the best part about these helmets are that they have free ear protection
Yeah it's a great design.
Arent these two helmets exactly the same minus the ear cover area?
+War Creek Airsoft no two different replicas
What camera and mount do you use?
This now www.brainexplodermerch.com/product-page/adjustable-nvg-mount-gopro-style
Love to see that thing with a tactical headset on board?
How would a Modernized "Stahlhelm" look ?
hmmm
Bootiful
I have a mich and it's not as bad as you think
Do these airsoft helmet loosen or shake on head like motorcycle helmet?
Please Answer this question is really importent for me!
Not the good ones they have a harness that can be cranked to sit tight on your head. They are designed to carry heavy weight like night vision goggles.
@@BrainExploder Have You Ever Had a Problem like a airsoft helmet shaking and does not fitting on your head?
P a t r i o t i c A M E R I C A N ! I haven’t but it’s possible they do come in different sizes sometimes
If you didn't change the system like he did would it cover all of your ears?
So my goggles have an inside plastic frame type thing can someone please explain why... I think it from the fact that I had no patience and bought their demo goggles
I know this may seem a bit cheap, but has anybody found a good alternative to the goggles or a solid way of mounting them giving the same effect, thanks in advance for any help.
Check out my tank build I did it with the helmet bungees.
61 cm head for which you recommend?)
what does the wire on the back of the helmet do?
+David Sizinski it's powering my GoPro
Cool thank you!
sorry to ask you this respectfully. im looking for a good m4 for a good price but I want a M4 with bottom rails I was looking at the g&g cm M4 Raider is this a good gun thank you.
it's the cheapest decent m4 on the market
shotgunboy10 but is it good
KiLLzone 3135 if it's your first aeg then yes it's good
The Raider is great. It was my first airsoft gun and I loved it. The new Classic Army Skirmish guns are pretty good as well. ICS, Krytac, and Ares Ameobas are also very good.
I kinda want to have a riot helmet just for the looks but damn it'd be hot in this Florida heat. And it probably wouldn't fit me well
Intro music?
And thanks for the video
Imma copy and paste ur helmet build ;)
Does anyone know the name of the tan rifle next to the tommy?
Lancer Tactical MMC
BrainExploder Thanks for the quick reply!
Could you wear sound cancelling headset under the helmet? (sordin headset)
+Josh Anderson I believe so
At he beginning of the video what gun was that
Lancer Tactical MMC
Hey Bro I'm just looking at your product on your shop.
Dual Mobius PEQ Box Style Rail Mount Bundle
Everything I see on the photo is included right? Nice Mich btw, just made my own inspired by your video! Keep up being creative!
Yeah comes with the two part base and cap mount, hardware, 2 cameras, one zoom one wide angle, two SD cards, cables and a sticker, ready to be a RUclips MVP right off the bat.
Also thanks.
I could ask any other youtuber but Mr. Brain Exploder how do I make thumbnails for my youtube videos by the way I'm broke what is a good windows 10 application for making thumbnails.
I'm super dumb when it comes to making thumbnails and I don't know how to make them without buying a photoshop app that cost a bunch of money
+HumorDash Airsoft Try Snapseed on your phone. Totally free.
BrainExploder thanks man
I never found my mich 2000 to be hot... Maybe the real pads in the Kevlar helmet are just more breathable than the fake plastic helmet's one?
Depends on where you are wearing it, anything gets hot on a California summer day.
especially here in Florida 100% humidity in the summer.... it's killer. I'm luckier than most though I can deal with the heat being so skinny
nice but please make the wall in the background more organized and make the lighting better!
Im pretty sure that you could fit hearing protection under the helmet
Especially since it's a.....mich. Lol
Brain will you make a m1918 gameplay video thx
+CKY Joshua BAR?
BrainExploder Yes the bar thx
thnaks
the mich 200 helmet looks better than a fast helmet if youre not using an over ear headset with the fast helmet. they look weird with that earspace left vacant
Agreed
at this point ill have a 800 dollar helmet set up
Lancer... sounds like Landser XD
i would not have drilled the lens, but somewhere else, it will compromise the lenses integrity, I prefer to have guaranteed eye protection than sacrificing it for having a convenient face mask, but that is just how i feel about it.
Agreed, but hey when you do this kinda custom work you likely already know what you're getting into and what you can get away with.
does it work with paintball?
Well, yeah. I mean, it's a helmet.
What goggles?
