Forgive, since i don't know much about these, but weren't the crowns of these helmets made of thick horse hair or something. This looks like it would be seriously top-heavy and unwieldy in battle, so it hard for me to see this as a museum replica as i would image those would be made more like the original helmets were, i.e. usable.
