| I have three of the old Boba Fett helmets. Based on what I've read, there
are two color variations: x50px1 and x50px3. The Bricklink catalog entry for
x50px1 also notes that: "This part has a print variant with a difference
in the line above the eye slit." It doesn't say what the different print
variant is.
Going through my old minifigs, I found three of the helmets. I'm hoping to
identify which goes with the sw0107 (Cloud City Boba Fett) minifig. The entry
for the minifigure states that it uses piece x50px1 without specifying anything
about the line in the eye slit.
I took pictures of all three. I've given each a letter to differentiate them.

| | Hi. Very interesting. From looking at your pictures (A, B, and C), and comparing them to other authentic boba fett helmets, I'm lead to believe the best choice would be A or C. Leaning more towards C, I have seen something close to A though. I've never seen such a off set printing of the band and the arrows like in image B.

I'm not exactly sure, so this is just a guess based on comparing the images.
Hope this helps.

| It probably wasn't a print variation specific to a set but just a variation
in print quality like many many parts from that era that had inconsistent printing
