Hey guys this is my first thread and i am going to purchase a green ranger helmet, and i know of cosplay ,model4hobby from ebay, and I know of homemedia4u.com but i would like to make my own helmet. i have the resin and i know how to make the visor i really just want to borrow some ones helmet mold. i would pay $100 and shipping there and back. if nobody has one , does anybody know where l can purchase a green ranger helmet for $200.00?
Go to RangerBoard.com and look up Aniki, Eric 101, or Wild Ranger 5. The helmets will cost anywhere from $250-$300.
Been there and I dont like the people there. i joined about 2 weeks ago and I couldnt reach aniki. ranger 5 is one i havnt heard of but I can buy a green ranger helmet on homemedia4u.com for $198.00 that includes shipping, i just wanted to make one myself.
thank you though i will look up ranger 5
have you thought about going the pepakura route? Some amazing results can be achieved with a little patience and elbow grease.
Another option is contacting PowerProps on ebay for her version. I have a kit of hers that I havent done much work to. WildRanger5 charges 250.00 for kit (Not Finished)
Funny you mention pepakura i just found them yesterday, i looked up green ranger and found some awesome photos of what has been done on google but in the end when i looked up green ranger helmet in the site it only gave me one photo it didnt lay it out like it does everything else. i still think i might try that again.
wow i have only been a member for 4 hours and already i have people willing to help out. Never got this help on rangerboard.
do you know how much the powerprops on ebay charges?Shadow said:
If it's who I think it is, I waited 2 years to get a helmet from Powerprops. We had a long thread on Rangerboard about it. And the mods there were not very helpful as she (if im right) was a friend.
And I don't think anyone would lend/rent you a mold. I would think they would be very protective of their work
yea i guess your right. never hurts to try. i guess im just better off buying the one on homemedia4u.com for like $198Remo said:

Maybe try rangerprops.com
One our members, spencer, started on a Green Ranger helmet. Dunno if he ever finished it or not. Here's his build thread: http://www.therpf.com/f24/green-mmpr...ura-wip-91525/
maybe try shooting him a message, but he did say he got it at rangerprops.com
lol i just found propstore.com and i found the pepakura file for the green ranger helmet. looks hard but i paid $15 for it and im gonna just try it. my only concern is how well spot putty sticks to paper, and what the heck am i going to make the eys out of. do i just mold them and place them on the helmet after i mold them?epilepticsquirl said:
Dungbeetle has a free pepakura version of the helmet.
greenranger2-2.pdo - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download
i tried that about 4 days ago i came across it by searching yahoo and there is no link there that i see. you hit download and it comes up somethin about clean your computer for free
What a cowinkadink, so am i. I actually have a Green ranger helmet, in 2 parts, that while the face part is fine, the back of the helmet got cracked. It's unpainted, needs work, but I don't think I'll ever get to it anyways, so I was going to offer it up. Not sure if it's in your abilities to make a new back (or somemhow repair it), since it's certainly not in mine.
that would be awesome!!!!!! what kind of a price are we talking? where at in illinois? forgive me if im a bit afraid to just come out and say where i live.Remo said:

as far as fixing it i can fix anything as long as I have a picture to look at to show me what its supposed to look like.
I definately wouldn't recommend the homemedia4u.com helmet, they are too big and very inaccurate. I actually regret buying it, got it before I found out about the other ones. I have one of those as well as one of Powerprops kits and you can easily tell the difference.
As for clicking download and getting the virus warning about cleaning your computer, it sounds like you possible have malware or spyware. I would recommend running scans on your system just in case.
no i mean it wasnt a virus it was a promotion like tune upTechnoboots said:
as far as thr helmet goes i might hold off and get it last. i just found a tailoring service in japan ( i love internet ) that will custom make the whole suit with gloves and gauntlets and the stupid looking white head cover. all for $150. I saw photos and they arent bad at all. I guess to throw the nod your way, yes i am doing the whole suit but im determined not to spend more than $500. for example i have a guy who does costume boots, and i can get power ranger boots of any ranger for $50.00! the only difference is his boots zip up the side not the back. I can get the full suit for $150, i can get the dragon shield for 100. so if i can get the helmet for $200 then i will only spend $500, where most people will spend up to $1,000. i think the homemedia helmet will be a good starter helmet, i dont want the best thing and not know how to wear it or care for it and then oh crap it broke.
i love this site all of you guys are so awesome to just offer up any info and help. man i wish the world today was just you guys.
