The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Ok so trying to find out what the correct type of microphone is for the colonial marines helmet.
UK source if possible. Doesn't need to be a working mic, just a prop one will do. What is the correct name for them?

I don't have my armour yet (Don't ask or I'll start crying again) but I'm guessing the space for the mic is pretty much the same size on all makes of helmet.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks guys and gals.

Is there an alternative available? Maybe something I can just pick up that looks like the M560? I've searched on the bay and there's nothing there as of posting this.
If not, I'll send marsattacks a message asking about it.

AFAIK, all M1 helmets are almost identical, but the mic goes through the earpiece, which is either an SA ear defender cup, or a resin/plastic copy, not the helmet, so the exact age/design of the M1 isn't important for the mic.
