$190, probably less expensive than pinky surgery :p

edit: It dropped from 3 in stock to 2, did you really buy one?

it is flat on the bottom. These used to be included in boxes of cereal

you can see the flatness in the closeup

The EFX one is pretty good (here's it at Amazon.com), but I think the best value is easily The Black Series stormtrooper helmet, which is being released on Force Friday (September 30). It's even based on the stormtrooper helmets from Rogue One (check out this comparison by "spacebob" on the RPF), and you can already pre-order it from a few places (example). The only problems I can see with it are that the lenses look a little too transparent and Hasbro might find a way to make another surprisingly-terrible voice changer feature.

I am lucky to have a very talented gunsmith friend that loves to go along with my ideas so it was easy to be picky and specific about the design and still have it come out right. Its heavily inspired by the Navy Football helmets which is so clean, tasteful, and ties 1911/2011 into the theme.

FYI, for those looking at Secret Santa gifts, I highly do not recommend purchasing any of the faux LEGO brick helmets (like this one), or anything made by the Brxlz company, as these fake-LEGO pieces are extremely tiny; the instructions poor (not going as step-by-step as LEGO does), and nearly impossible to put together (due to the tiny size of the pieces). They look cool, but are terrible to assemble.

Just wanted to get that out there, FWIW.

Have one yourself

I got a Megaman Replica Mini Helmet at New York Comic Con 2015.

Looks like this: http://www.amazon.com/Megaman-Mini-Helmet-Replica-Rush/dp/B00X4074PM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1451426191&sr=8-2&keywords=megaman+mini+helmet

Although the price is pretty bogus. It's typical lootcrate $9 swag...pretty cool in my opinion

I'm not what one would call 'artistic' so putting one together myself would come out looking like it was done in arts & crafts time at a special ed school. Do you know someone that would commission one? I find it's much easier to pay people that know what they're doing than dicking it up myself and feeling shame

Edit: Is something like this decent? or are there better ones? http://www.amazon.com/EFX-Star-Stormtrooper-Helmet-Replica/dp/B005J35PG2

This would be awesome to get. Pigfarts.

Looks like Franklin Sports is the source that other outlets use and they seem to be out at the manufacturer level: https://franklinsports.com/fan-shop/college You might try emailing them and ask when they'll be back in stock.

There are a ton of full sized replica helmets available: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dsporting&field-keywords=washington+huskies+helmet

For example: https://www.amazon.com/NCAA-Washington-Huskies-Replica-Helmet/dp/B0097L33KC/ It says no pads but for a kid you'd need extra padding anyway and that way he could grow into it.

Be careful because some of the items say "Helmet sold for display only. All NCAA helmets must include a no-wear safety device inside." Not sure if the device is removable or not.

If you're in a pinch, maybe just buy a kid's helmet and use spray paint and a logo sticker?

Here are the links to the items I bought and used:

NFC Helmets

AFC Helmets

A few things from my wish list:

Stormtrooper Helmet $169.99

Mac Knife 4 Piece Starter Set $184.37

A Christmas Story Full Size Leg Lamp $159.99

I don't think it's a good idea to bring food. Border controls are getting very restrictive on this topic.

I'd go with mugs/fridge magnets/key rings. Baseball and American Football themed gifts are awesome.

I hate when people call this color gold. It's not gold. It's yellow.

If you call that color gold, then what do you call this color or this color?

If you know his favorite football team you could get him a lego helmet .

This inflatable football target also seems cool.

I would say you couldn’t go wrong with any football themed game. Also a nice pair of earbuds or cool colored headphones are not a bad idea.

So I went looking for it, and I found an option. It's not a star, but it's the closest thing I could find.

This is a mini-helmet, but one of the reviewers said it made a good tree topper:

Best of luck in your search.
