Body for scaled stormtrooper helmet?

[judgedredd]

I just ordered the stormtrooper scaled helmet and thought it would be cool to make a posed body for it i could do with a cheap vinyl kit from bangkok to use as an armatuer anyone have any suggestions? the helmet is 0.45 scale i think looking at the pictures?
Its just a thought would make a great figure

What does that translate to scale? It's an odd way to scale by percent, you usually scale by ratio x(something) is equivelant of y(something).

Without knowing the scale ratio - third scale, fourth scale, fifth scale, etc... it's difficult to help. But I recon it may be as big as nearly half scale, if it is 45% of actual size - there's afaik no cheap vinyl figure in that scale.

I know i think its just below 1:2 scale its just what the advert said so its unlikely i will find anything that big there is a 25inch tall predator which would have done but i think its the wrong scale as that is about 1:3 it was a nice idea i guess lol

Yeah, even though the Predator is HUGE... I still think you'd have ended up with a bubble-head look.

i have the 3 foot batman begins figure which looks almost right, although perhaps a little under scale. you could try and find one of them.

they came out around the time of BB, i never saw them in shops but found one on ebay, its pretty big, not mega detailed as it was obviously meant for kids, but i'll take a pic of it next to my scaled TK helmet and post it up for you.

heres a review, this is where i first saw it, http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_052005a.htm

I was at Target a couple of weeks ago and they had three of the BatMan figures on clearance for $28.00 if I recall correctly. I think TRU also carried them.
