    I'm quite sure I have seen them explain that it was a design choice to not give the races visible headgear due to their unique head designs.

    From the last Letter From the Producer:

More than five hundred and forty such items were carefully modified by our designers so that all would display correctly with our new face models. /salute
    I think there was a longer quote elsewhere (perhaps from the original Fan Fest presentation or interviews at the time), that more specifically said that headgear would not display at all. I'd have to go looking for it though. It's certainly what I remember them saying at the time.

    Do you have a link to where it was "officially stated" that the rest of the headgear is coming, and only absent due to time constraints?
