Here's a LINK to a 360° view of the helmet. You can definitely see how it looks matte black at some angles while looking the more familiar pewter at other times. But I think that problem won't exist during a game under the sun.

Yes it will. But the one thing I was concerned about most - the "chrome" facemask - looks fine to me. It's actually more of a brushed aluminum look anyway which blends much better with the helmet shell.

Yeah it all looks ok. We'll see how it looks on the field. Are they updating the unis as well?

Nice. The helmet really doesnt look bad, modern upgrade on a decent NFL uni. Hopefully they don't go full Nike with the rest of the set

This. Although given the rather tame nature of this change, I don't expect significantly wild changes to their look.

Is it necessary for the logo to take up that much space?

Old Helmet vs New Helmet





And an angled view of the lid:




You can see on the top of the helmet running front-to-back along the ridge that it's a bit darker than the rest of the paint. Here's why:

quote:

The helmet retains its trademark pewter color and includes a larger logo on each side along with the revolutionary new chrome facemask. Also unique to the Buccaneers’ look will be a hand-painted shading technique that uses a darker pewter color running vertically from the front of the helmet to the crown and along the ear-holes, providing a one-of-a-kind custom look.
