Stormtrooper helmet advice

[Darth Movado]

Dear members of the RPF,

A friend of mine has purchased a set of F/X stormtrooper armor that has been modified to fit her shorter frame. The armor fits her like a glove. However, there is not helmet with the armor as it was sold seperately. I know the F/X helmets are larger than average, and with her smaller frame, I'm afraid that a helmet of this class would overpower and dominate the suit and look rather odd. What is your advice on a helmet? Is the Master Replicas suitable? This is not my forte as I'm a Vader and Royal Guard costumer. ST armor is something I'm trying to get into and for my frame, an F/X helmet would be great as I need a slightly bigger helmet to compensate for my larger size. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Movado

If your freind intends to 'troop' in her armour, I'd recommend not to go down the MR route...

It's a pricey lid, and chances of it getting scratched or damaged by over enthusiastic fans are high..

Have a look on Jez's awesome SW helmet reference site www.starwarshelmets.com

There are plenty of helmets available... some cheap, others not, and some no longer available...

I had an FX to start with, and being only 5-8, it was like a beachball on me. I went down the RT-Mod route in the end... cracking lid for a great price.... reasonably accurate sized too.

My fave is the TM helmet, but TE2 and AP are also good. How much are you looking to spend on it? Would you rather have a completed helmet or a kit?
