I recently needed a third Astronaut helmet, but I didn't want to spend $50-$75 for one on eBay. So, I bought a MIB Action Jackson Air Force outfit for $35. This morning I made a post about it in a Facebook group and a group member asked me about the helmet. He said that AJ Air Force helmets are smooth on the inside while Astronaut helmets have a track on the inside to hold the helmet tighter to the head. I checked and the AJ helmet is smooth. Then I checked my T-1 Astronaut's helmet, and it was smooth and my T-2 has the track. The Museum doesn't differentiate between the helmets and just says that they are the same. My guess is that the Astronaut came with both styles of helmet.
Can anyone clarify this?
