I'm not totally convinced of asymmetry in the helmet just yet. I see that the bottom seam in the concept illustration passes through the center of the respirator, and in the real-life photo, the seam either doesn't go through the respirator, or there isn't one on that side.

Just looking at the photo of the actual helmet and the way the plastic is molded, it seems to me that the respirators might be just out of sight on the "underside" of the chin area, with the seam passing above them instead of through them in the concept. Comparing the shape of the chin from concept to photo, there are definitely some shape differences, which would suggest that it was modified after the concept was completed.

I could be totally wrong, of course, but it's something to keep in mind.

 The RPF had said that theres only one respirator on one side of the helmet & it's not symetrical

More leaked images??
