Picked up the Rubies Fett helmet today.
Be careful with the visor. Word on the DH is it is very brittle and prone to cracking.

If you look it up on target.com it will tell you which stores in your area have it in stock
I'll probably go the rattlecan route, specifically Rustoleum, as that brand has never let me down. As far as lenses go, I'm hoping someone does a run of bubble lenses. Otherwise I'll use a cannibalized welding shield.2 questions.

I just took the velcro pieces off of the Kylo Ren helmet. Without them, the two sides fit together pretty well. I'll probably just glue them together and sand the seams down a bit and not bother with filling in with bondo, since it'll be under a hood.
Edit- Here it is with the velcro removed, two parts glued together and primed for sanding.

You need a black base coat for the chrome anyways, so you might as well do your black first, then mask off for the chrome. If you try masking the chrome then painting black you're likely to ruin the finish
