Could it be the Deepeeka "Alexander the Great" helmet? AH6124, second row down on this page:
http://www.deepeeka.co.in/helmet1.html
One of my legionaries got one of these to use for later Thracian, Carthaginian, etc. But since it's a not-entirely-accurate translation of a not-entirely-accurate illustration in one of Connolly's books, he had to modify it some. It has the fixed ear pieces (plain, not embossed), small hinged earflaps, and the larger cheekpieces--with the result that the face is almost completely covered! He lopped off the fixed flaps, removed the small hinged ones, and moved the larger ones back. Much more workable helmet, now! Really a decent piece, with some tweaking.
Now the challenge is to find a vendor that has it in stock, eh? Good luck!
