Anyone else noticed that cook and Strauss wear the sane helmet but cook has his covered in cloth as you can see the "fin" patterns under the cloth on cooks nut must be a personal preference

Ok just seems under the cloth is the same pattern as strausses helmet is that the only difference between the elite and predator

Has the design of the Elite changed then? The venting on it in the promo images is two holes on the front, whereas on Cook's lid there's the same vents as the Predator.
