Would the original submitter of this inventory care to comment on the color of
the helmet and the source used? Apparently there has already been some confusion
over this helmet.
And just to be sure, is this fig a possibility?

Well, you can definitely tell by the image for
[m=cty257]
that the helmet is Flat Silver (TLG's Silver Metallic) and not Pearl Dark
Gray (TLG's Titanium Metallic).
The inventory submitter originally inventoried it as Dark Bluish Gray, and then
changed it to Pearl Dark Gray (http://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=M&itemNo=cty257&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1)
Therefore, I think it is safe to assume they did not fully understand the new
Flat Silver color, as it was only about one year old at that time.
Cheers,
Randy

The original inventory was done in november, the change in december, the darker
months of the year, with lack of bright natural light and most likely with the
use of artificial light. Flat Silver being a newer color and earlier on a bit
inconsistant was probably part of the reason for mis-identifying the color, so
I just checked again:
I confirm the color of the Helmet is Flat Silver and therefor this request can
be accepted.
Cheers, Eric

The chances I would actually see your message (being the original submitter)
here on the forum are quite slim, both you and Randy could have popped me a message...
I just stumbeled on it looking at 'pending' catalog changes 
The answer will be found as a reply on Randy's reply.
Cheers, Eric

A message was coming your way, for sure - just hadn't sent it yet. We weren't
going to make a change without hearing from you.

The issue at this point is not that we don't know what the helmet color should
be, but how we are going to handle the change. Minifigure inventories are typically
*not* changed for any reason, and a new catalog entry is generated instead. However,
in this case we may make an exception and handle the error with a change/notify
procedure - it is currently being discussed.

Minifig inventories have been changed in the past that obviously contained a
part in the wrong color, but OK.
