I made this helmet a little over a year ago. I even have a build thread on it here: http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=219205
This is a one size fits all helmet, cast in Smooth-On Onyx urethane resin. By default, it will JUST BARELY fit a 23" head (ie, mine). But because of the shape, simply trimming the bottom edge up results in an increasingly larger opening. Trimming 1/4" off the bottom translates to about 1" of additional circumference.
Helmet Pricing:
This is available as a KIT for $150.
Kit includes Helmet, Mandibles/Voice Box, 2 Nubs (for attaching antennae), 2 paint brushes (to be used as antennae), and 2 beads (to top the antennae)
Shipping to the US is $45 and includes insurance, tracking, and signature on delivery.
International shipping (currently enables for UK, Canada, Rusia, and Australia) is $80 and includes insurance and tracking. Allow 6-10 days. (Other countries, PM me)
Ordering Info:
I handle all kits through my store. It takes all the guesswork out of PayPal payments, automatically counts the number of orders, and makes sure I don't miss anybody.
You'll need to order both the "Classic Dome Helmet" and "Helmet Accessory Kit" (I made separate listings after worries about C&D from Marvel).
CHROME Option:
I also offer this as a FINISHED HELMET, plated in REAL CHROME. This is what you see in the pictures.
This is genuine metal chrome, not vacuum metalizing, not spray chrome, not a paint effect.
The helmet is plated with copper then plated with chrome on top of that.
To give a sense of durability: My personal helmet has a small dent from where I ran into a steel door, and some minor scratches from where I dropped it onto a cement floor. Fingerprints and the like simply wipe/buff off with a soft tshirt or cloth, though when it's especially bad I wipe the while thing down with copious amounts of acetone.
CHROME Pricing/ Ordering:
A finished Chrome helmet runs $1200 and comes fully finished, cut to size, with adjustable lining pads. Shipping is the same as for a kit ($45 US, $80 International)
