I understand that they're all based on MICH 2001, but why are there so many types?

I've seen Ballistic, PJ, Bump, Base Jump, Maritime, Airframes to name a few.

Also in your opinion, which one is the best looking and most comfortable?
There are only 4 Ops-Core helmets:
Base Jump, Carbon, Ballistic / Sentry and the Ballistic High Cut / Maritime
The AirFrame is by Crye Precision

The ones you've named are just pseudonyms that knockoff companies have attempted to put on those helmets.

The base jump is sufficient for 95% of airsoft use. If you're planning on doing real-steel training, you may want to get a dual-use helmet and step up to a Ballistic. Comfort-wise, the Base Jump and Carbon are identical and the Ballistics are identical. The former group allows better airflow due to the vented tops.
