Preparing for your first mission as a Clone Trooper is quick and easy. Before you assemble the helmet, adjust the straps on the insert to fit your child, then snap it into place. We had to try several times before the two back pieces and the front of the helmet snapped together neatly. Once we got the three pieces aligned correctly, they attached securely, producing a sleek, sturdy helmet. The three "AA" batteries that power audio features come already installed. Featuring realistic details, including a tinted visor, a crest on top, and clone-inspired colors, this durable, plastic helmet has three buttons on the right side that prompt five different sayings from the Clone Wars TV show. A button that issues radio static keeps communication interesting, and commands like "Cover Me!" and "All units fire at will!" add a quick adrenaline rush to any battle. Plus, there's a voice-modulator microphone so kids (and adults) can issue their own statements in a cool clone voice. Experience Intergalactic Role Playing
Whether part of a Halloween custom, an everyday role-playing game, or a display in the ultimate collector's bedroom, this Clone Trooper helmet brings home all the excitement of Star Wars. We were floored by the accuracy and durability of its construction. Plus the tinted visor was much easier to see through than we expected, as long as the helmet was sized correctly. The size and weight that make this helmet so realistic and durable did cause us to worry about how easy it would be for smaller children to wear. It's true that the straps inside adjust to fit small heads, but that doesn't prevent the size of the helmet itself from being awkward. Similarly, the microphone is adjustable, but it can still be stuck too far away from a small child's mouth. This means that the helmet has to be lifted by hand to speak through the microphone. When it's positioned close enough to the wearer's face, the microphone does a good job amplifying statements and commands, as well as providing the static you'd expect from a clone. It's ability to truly modify and deepen a voice is less reliable, although this doesn't really detract from the fun. Overall, it's hard to beat a toy that encourages active, imaginative play the way this helmet does. Even adults who are loyal to the original trilogy are likely to enjoy slipping the Clone Trooper helmet on and taking part in the struggles of the Republic. What's in the Box

My two sons are Star Wars fanatics. My 9 year old especially loves the clone troopers. The helmet is big (my head can fit it it) and the kids do look like bobbleheads as the other reviewer mentioned. The voice changer could be better but the other reviewer was too critical. The point is to sound like a clone trooper not like Darth Vader. So it doesn't do much to change the voice because after all, clone troopers are just cloned humans anyways. And there are the other buttons which sound out phrases from the Clone wars movie. My son thinks "it's perfect."

I was nervous getting it because of the reviews to be honest. I love reading them because it helps me decide of the price is worth the risk of maybe getting a crappy item.
I took the risk.
And am glad.
I have a small three year old and a 5 year old who are star wars NUTS. I figured if anything they would just get a kick out of it. I wasnt disappointed nor were my children.
Review:
It came in 4 pieces that you just fit together and snap into place. If you do not do it right then the helmet will come apart. If you have a bit of patience and fit it together as it should be... it'll stay. I did not have patience the first time and when my son put it on.. the back fell off.
MY BAD! Once I took the few minutes. It fit right and we were good to go!
The advertised voice changer... is really just a mic that projects your voice but to be honest.. for 20 bucks. (I got the flash sale one) Its still effin cool. It has buttons that plays the troopers voices and various saying though.. which was a big hit.
It is large.. but thats okay. The kids, as small as they are, can wear it just fine. And the strap set to the smallest setting - fit them *perfectly* and it will readjust to fit an adult (so the husband was happy)
One con: if you buy it for a child year old, do not expect it to fit so perfect that their mouths will be near the mic.

This helmet is from the Star Wars series and it looks like the ones in the movie. little boys love this thing! It also changes their voice to make them sound like a Clone Trooper. It can be bought with or without the blaster gun.
I bought this for my nephew and he loves it! He's way into star wars and this helmet just about completes his collection. This is for any boy who loves star wars. It's the perfect gift!

My 3 and a half year old grandson asked me if I would get him this helmet. He loves all the star wars movies and cartoons. He has all the star wars legos. As a supportive grandmother, I first read all of the reviews before buying. After making my decision to purchase this helmet, we waited patiently for the delivery. It arrived in 6 business days. We assembled the helmet without any problems. You need to read the directions and follow the pictures. We adjusted the helmet the smallest that we could so that he could wear it and be able to see through the eye area.
He didn't care that it was a little wobbly or slightly heavy. He loves pushing the buttons on the side of the helmet to hear the trooper giving orders and saying what's going on. The voice changer dosen't change your voice it only amplifies it. He dosen't like to use it.
I am happy with this helmet and my grandson loves it. Amazon was the best price that we found on the internet and in major stores, like Target and Wal-Mart. It has fallen on the floor more than a dozen times and it hasn't fallen apart yet. The secret is to make sure you snap it in place securely.
I would definately recommend this Helmet!
