You can still see some of the details that only existed on the original Hero. The larger rivet on the middle finger, you can see the broken index blade, the larger rivet on the finger joint of the index finger, the small downward hump on the bottom of the copper on the middle finger just below the rivet. Definitely the same glove.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndAgreed. Not to mention the shaping of the lower finger stalls/knuckle flats and backplate. The only thing that looks different in this photo, aside from the additional weathering, is the lower rivet on the pinky, maybe it hadn't been swapped out yet.
