Hello!
In set 6820, minifig sp004, in the BL inventory I find helmet 193au (Blue
Minifigure, Headgear Helmet Space/Town with Thin Chin Strap (Undetermined Type).
From the box and the YouTube video, it appears to be helmet 193bu (Minifigure,
Headgear Helmet Space/Town with Thick Chin Strap (Undetermined Type).
What is the correct solution?
Thanks everyone!
Paolo

Hello Paolo,

The box art usually is not a good indicator for parts variants used in the production
of a set, so we don't accept that as a trusted source.

But you also mention a video, can you share the link? and is it from opening
a sealed set?

Thanks,
Sergio

For what it’s worth:
— I have 3 sp004,
— 2 are 193b2, 1 is 193a2,
— they come from 2x 6820-1 and 1x 6824-1.

Any way they were distributed, at least one b comes from a 6820-1 (I strongly
believe it’s 2 but I’ve no further proof).

They are probably both correct. The catalog doesn't have a way to do this
perfectly. Undetermined looks like we need people to check, but making doubles
of a lot of minifigs because of the helmets feels silly.
