Pretty Soon, You Can Buy a Real Mega Man Helmet (Updated)
Among the many goodies at the San Diego Comic-Con Capcom booth, you'll find this beauty: an official, wearable Mega Man helmet.
According to Capcom, the helmet it's "made of high quality ABS plastic with a high polish finish, authentic proportions and details, plus working LED lights! A unique clamshell hinge allows the front and back half of the helmet to easily open up to comfortably fit your head inside the soft padded interior for a perfect fit."
The helmet will be on display at SDCC, with a limited run of pre-orders slated to hit Capcom's online store soon. No word on price but I'd wager $100+.
UPDATE: Pre-orders are live! Get 'em while they last!
Now if you want something a bit cheaper (and smaller), SDCC will play host to a 5-pack of mini Mega Man helmets. These are the same helmets that appeared in Loot Crate earlier this year. Their 1/64 scale... perfect for desktops!

"Do you come with the helmet?
ReplyDelete"Oh, you. Tehehe"
Oh, man. Now that is perfect. I'd wager $100+ too but that's just too cool to pass up. Even if you're not wearing it, it would be an incredible display piece. Definitely a perfect piece for any cosplay. Paired with the buster, the ensemble is pretty much complete!
ReplyDeleteHeck, they might as well just create the other pieces and ship them with a light blue body suit and be done with it. lol
Ugh! Too big.
ReplyDeleteWow! Nice! It probably wouldn't fit me but it still looks really cool!
ReplyDeleteJust placed my order! It's $150 a piece :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, it looks a little big. Plus Capcom sort of sucks when it comes to quality control. My MM light-up statue has a problem with the LEDs and is crumbling apart at the base. Also I heard bad reviews of several of their other products that are fragile. I think I'll pass, my knit one fits just fine :)
ReplyDeleteHey, they are doing it for money for themselves. Without us, they have nothing. What a greedy. Jeez.
DeleteDoes Mega Man have pink ear lights? I thought they were red. Maybe it's just an effect of the light.
ReplyDeleteAnyway looks rad but I don't know if I can justify buying it to myself.
Something is wrong with this picture. Megaman is a male and she wear male helmet ? Sexism, perhaps ? Sighing. Anyway, she looks funny in it. Yeah, it is a little bit too big and the ear supposed to be red lights instead of pink.
ReplyDeleteWho cares?
DeleteWTF
DeleteI'm gonna be honest with you I didn't even know it was a girl or boy in till now, actually I still don't know and can't tell.
Deletecan i use it as headphone? if so, i'll never take this off.
