Does anyone sell or do any production figures come with realistic standard fighter pilot helmets? I’m talking Top Gun style with visors and oxygen masks. There have been some cool quasi-futuristic ones that I can recall, but nothing contemporary. Can be a removable helmet or solid head.
I’m looking to make Ace, but I’m moving away from his cosmonaut look to something standard. Thanks!

One of the earlier versions of Ace (v6/v7) has one, and an earlier version of Slipstream has one that i really like. There's a picture on this page: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ml#post5135812

The Ace(v-2) that came with the goofy zip cord helicopter had a pretty cool helmet.

The closest you'll find is probably the old BBI 1:18 scale pilots.
Out of production. You might find one from a custom caster, but quality will vary. I used one for a custom pilot a long time ago. Will be hard to fit for any head sculpted ROC or later. Corps line has this figure. Solid piece and you'll need to attach your own hose. Another option is a helmet from the new sculpt era. Duke v11 https://www.yojoe.com/action/02/duke11.shtml One piece and no hose. Some custom casters will probably still make copies of it. The 30th Ace helmet is close to what the F-22 and F-35 pilots wear. I used it to make my own Ace. It is sized for 25th anniversary heads. The MTF might work, if you can find a mask to fit, but the side bulges give more of a helicopter pilot vibe.

Yeah, I love those BBI ones. I have two versions. The pilot is an Ace and the RIO head is a Spc. Altitude from the AoCI set.
Another option is the Slipstream that came with the Thunderwing.

Dear DerStahlhelm,
I happened upon your post today and remembered that I had these from a while back. I would be willing to part with one if you are interested, let me know and good luck on your project 👍 Sincerely, Casca PS: How did the project with the Jeep mounted canon ever turn out?
