Does anyone here have a TOS Flight Helmet? Preferrably one cast off a "real" version, rather than one of the fan made replicas.

If so, would they be willing to take some accurate measurments of it?

It might be a tedious process, but please let me know if you'd be willing.

I have a reworked Marco helmet, but the one Ed is thinking of is my friend Jim's (it was at the Megacon display). His is pretty darn accurate- I think it came from a screen used one at one point. I may be getting a set of parts like Jim's- not sure if I can turn it around into kits, but I'll take a look when I can to see if its possible. I can certainly provide measurements when I get the parts though.

Mark that would be excellent.

If there is anything I can do to help you with that, Please let me know.

:) I have been know to be fairly handy around a prop shop, and I can imagine if Helmet kits were available, you might have a fairly good market for them, right here on CF.

Honestly, I'd prefer a kit to a prefab, more excitement involved in finishing it :)

Now, If I could just figure out how to work a frigging sewing maching, make a pattern, and.....

Thanks Mark! I was pretty sure you had one of your own as well but yes, it was the Mega Con pics that inspired my post :)
