...And here I was thinking I would do with what I CAN'T. Just to be clear, I was not trying to get anyone to "sell" me anything. I was just looking for an exchange of information, and I did get some useful information. "Thanks internet." P.S. I am "infected" and I would love to do a proper helmet some day. But today my project is complete two girls costume party outfits.

Oops. sorry

Good idea. I'll do that

Yeah the "Collectors" Helmet is a dog at that price. The "Supreme" helmet is decent IMO as long the price is the same. I would really like to get both helmets for about $150. I've got a couple months so I'm hoping some used EFX helmets will come up on ebay. But that may be a pipe dream.

So, if anyone is curious... I spoke to a Rubies rep on the phone. The Rubies "Supreme" Stormtrooper Helmet (seen ) is currently only sold with the "Supreme" Stormtrooper Armor. However they have discontinued the "Collector's" Helmet (seen ) and will be replacing it with the "Supreme" Helmet this summer.

I hear ya. The finished kit helmets are awesome and I can see maybe building one for myself one day, but for now my goal is to find something inexpensive for the girls to wear to the dance.

Ahhh. Okay. So is it only available when you buy the complete "Supreme" stormtrooper armor?

Do you know the model number or the exact name of that Rubies helmet? The only one I've seen for sale is the RUB-65005 which is much different than the one is the video. I'd be willing to put the work in to a kit but $250 is not in the budget.

So my girlfriend had a great idea for a costume ball/dance we are going to in a few months. She is a huge SW fan, as am I. Her idea was for me to dress in a tux with a Vader helmet, and she and her friend will wear matching white cocktail dresses with Stormtrooper helmets. We have a Rubies Deluxe Vader helmet, So now I am on the hunt for two matching Stormtrooper helmets that look decent but won't break the bank. I've seen a lot of helmets but the only two that are commonly available are either EFX (too expensive) or (too ugly). I'd like to get both helmets for about $150 and I'd like them to look presentable sitting on the mantel flanking the Vader helmet when not in use. Any suggestions? I saw video on youtube. This seems like a real decent helmet (for my purposes) and at $70, fits well in to my budget. He says its a Rubies helmet, but it doesn't look anything like the rubies helmets I've seen for sale.
