Hey guys so in going through a rough patch with $$ right now but need a scout helmet by February. Do you know of anyone that sells HIPS helmets in decent conditions? I prefer HIPS but if I can only get ABS I will.

 

FYI: I need another helmet after my modded Don Post helmet was stolen with parts of my snow trooper a few months ago.

 

Thanks,

Alex

Dont know of a cheap HIPS helmet. Your best bet is probably to buy a KS ABS kit. those are under $200.

 

Either that or keep your eye on the trade forum and see if someone is selling one

I bought a HIPS helmet off of eBay for $160.00. The quality of the pulls was exquisite. Very accurate. A much better helmet than the KS I bought and assembled (but did not finish) this past summer. The seller has a notorious reputation on this forum, but on Etsy and eBay he seems to have learnt from his mistakes. Anyways, I searched and waited on eBay for 7 weeks before one his kits came up for sale again. Patience has become one of my virtues when it comes to making a Scout costume.
