For modifying the Don Post helmet, adding the extras for a Crimson Empire helmet, as well as painting, padding, speakers, fans, etc.

I have a small request for anyone with a rubies supreme helmet. Can someone who has one take a tape measure and check the circumference of the interior of the helmet? I wanna be sure that one can fit on my 25" head.

Thanks!

I've got an FP South American helmet and it would fit your noggin. My head is a large 24" and I've got a ton of space. Never seen a Rubies though so hard to say.

I'm actually working on a way of collecting measurements for different helmets which I should be able to post soon.

Whatever helmet I end up getting, I'll make sure I measure it & post it on here. :)

I just recently got one of the SA helmets I'm getting about 25 1/2 inches at the smallest point for the inner diameter. 8 1/2 across at the neck and about 5 from the top of the dome to the visor. Any other measurements or pictures you guys want on this helm?

They just released some Animated Guard pictures recently. I think I'm going to take their helmet pictures and use that to come up with a standard set of measurements we can all take.

I was just going to use the helmet pictures because it shows the helmets from different angles, not necessarly the specific shape or episode.

what happened to us trying to get a set of standardized measurements of each of the major helmet makers? They may not be a hard and fast rule, but it would be kinda nice to see actual numbers on the difference for people looking to get a bucket.
