Gree23 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Ok all, I am going to be building a Swamp Trooper, I know that the costume belongs to the Spec Ops, but with there only being 9 swamp troopers, this question is better here, as it pertains more to the actual armor/helmet, than the build itself. My question is this, what armor/helmet should i go with. I have about 6ft 1in and about 215lbs. I added a pic of me in my jumpsuit for reference. I need to know what armor, but more so helmet, would fit me best, i dont want to have the shrunkin head build. I believe i wear about a 7 3/4 hat if that helps. Please help me guys, i dont want to look silly in my armor! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 There are a few helmet makers that accommodate folks with a larger dome -- you can PM Spike, who is a vendor on here, about one of his Altmann helmets. I know he does complete Shadow Scout as well as standard Biker Scout helmets, but I imagine you'd have to repaint 'em green if you wanted to use it for a swampy. KS is also one of the larger helmets. You can order theirs as a kit. SC helmets runs on the smaller size, so I wouldn't go that way in your particular case. As for armor, the hard parts are made so they fit a wide variety of body shapes. I have SC armor, which is very popular with a lot of scouts. You can also see how the armor types fit on various folks in the armor comparison thread here: http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?/topic/17774-the-ultimate-armor-comparison-thread/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merlin707 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I can vouch for Spikes Altmann Helmets. Mine arrived not long back and it’s amazing quality. I have a slightly larger size head and it fits me comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmorja Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Ditto on the Spikes Altmann Helmets. I wear the same hat size and the bucket fits with no issues. Likewise on his armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
