There are several hat can be found or even hand made with print outs, if you have the right skills. Rubies also makes a licensed version that just needs some minor modifications to be approved.

whatever you do, avoid "7thavenueshop" on eBay!!

I paid $230 to have one shipped to UK. When it arrived it was a bad copy of a Ruby's in a licenced box.
It was very badly made and needed repaint and damage repair, so I opted to send it back.

They won't pay return shipping fee so it's gonna cost me £60 to send it. So far, eBay is on their side, saying the buyer must pay return shipping costs!!

Be very careful about buying from abroad.
There are two possible options:
Either we're alone in this Universe, or we're not.
Both are equally frightening!!

Another option is to just do a search of the Rubies Supreme Imperial Guard Helmet. It is a licensed product that just really needs modification on the visor to meet the CRLs. There are several posts about this helmet.
