Haha, yup, Jason! You caught that, did you? And I also called the AT-AT a "4 wheeled" vehicle. Getting old is getting hard on my brain! 😆 Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Awesome collection Paul. My favorite is definitely either the black series mando or the shore trooper. It's definitely has come far. And the lighting looks great. Another great video. Also you should do a full tour of the star wars room
Thanks, Francisco! And yeah, those two are GREAT helmets you picked out. I was happy to have stumbled on this great way to light the cases as well. It really makes a difference in the quality of the display! Always good to see you as well, sir!
Sean! Thank you very much, sir! I'm glad you liked it. I see the blue LEDs in the background of your live streams on your cases and I some times wish I'd gone with RGB lights. But, I'm too lazy to rip mine out and start over! haha! Thanks for stopping by, and if you can make it, I look forward to seeing you this Saturday!
Well thank you very much, Mark! I appreciate that! And as a matter of fact, the 2022 update video of my collection should be arriving towards the end of this month. I can't believe it's already been a year since I filmed this one. Lot's of new helmets to talk about then! Thank you so much for the kind words and for checking out this video!
@@CHASEMARC It is wearable. It was originally a suit of Anovos Stormtrooper armor, before I modded and painted it. And no, it would not be 501st approveable as it is not based upon any canon or legends character. It's completely fabricated and done in a color scheme and deco that simply appealed to me.
Thanks, Matt! I appreciate that! I look forward to seeing you especially, another helmet aficionado, in the chat on Saturday. And thanks for checking out the video!
My man!!!!! You have some stunning pieces in your collection my friend!!!! And I’m really looking forward to the show on Saturday . The death trooper and shore trooper are two that I’d love to add to my collection. See you Saturday Brother 🤜🤛👍
Wow, thanks, Luke! You flatter me, sir. Hearing that from another proper helmet aficionado means a lot. And yeah, I am looking forward to Saturday as well. I also can't wait to talk more about YOUR collection as well! Thanks for checking out the video!
I live in Western NC. Every Ikea from me to Florida is fresh out of Detolfs (seemingly forever). I swear, I click on these videos to lust after the cases as much as the helmets lol.
They are hit or miss here in Phoenix for the past year to 18 months as well. Last time I found them in stock, I bought three just to "future proof" my collecting. Hopefully your Ikea will get on the ball soon! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Thanks, D Contreras! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video. And it's funny you should ask, because I just happen to have made a quick video on how I lit my cases. It's easy and inexpensive! th-cam.com/video/11UDXjQfNpo/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much! I really appreciate that! I had the gray spray paint on hand from another project and I thought to myself, "This would be a cool color for a special forces stormtrooper." The black just seems to have been a natural accent color. It turned out even better than I thought it was going to! I got lucky... Thanks for checking out the video!
Wow! I've said it before and I'll say it again, what an amazing helmet Collection you have my friend. Too many to choose a favorite, but I like the one from the Phantom Menace! (😉😉) Will definitely try to catch your livestream with Luke and thanks for sharing your great collection with us. Cheers Paul.
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words, Shabby! I appreciate that! And yeah, haha! You caught that as well? I meant to say "Force Awakens!" I also said the AT-AT Drivers piloted "four wheel" vehicles. I'm getting "old man brain" quicker thank I thought I would! And we look forward to seeing you on Saturday if you can drop by. Thanks for checking out the video and I wish you continued success on the new place! Can't wait to see the room tour video of the new toy room!
Thank you very much for the kind words, Cobra! I'm trying for that "Imperial Museum" vibe! I can't wait to do my 2022 update video! I've added quite a few more helmets since this video! Thanks for checking it out!
Scout Trooper and Death Trooper helmets are by far my favorites. I just recently picked up Death Watch Mandalorian and Din Djarin helmets. Din's helmet fits so nice and I'll have to figure something out for the DW helmet. Awesome collection. 👍
Thanks, Mitch! And you and I are in total agreement! My two favorites are also the Shoretrooper and the Death Trooper. They are GREAT helmets. Glad to hear you're getting into the helmet collecting game as well. It's a slippery slope. One day you wake up and you have twenty! haha! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles I also collect a little bit TBS and TVC, so it'll be a juggling spectacular. 🤣. Maybe one day I can get a whole costume to go with a helmet, definitely Death Trooper. 👍
Thank you, sir! I appreciate the kind words! The stands are actually paper towel holders from Costco. These ones are about 12" tall and run about $10 a piece. You'd never know it though!
Amazing helmets and great display! If only I had a few helmets of my own, but I think you inspired me to start collecting my own! Keep up the great videos!
Thanks for the kind words, sir! And these helmets are dangerous! Once you get one or two, it's hard to stop and they can be pricey at times! But with that, I wish you success in your new collecting endeavor! Thanks for checking out the video!
dude I love your collection Im watching videos to start my own collection aswell my favorite one is the death trooper so far!!! also do you know where I can buy a purge trooper helmet from jedi fallen order? thx love ur vid
Thank you so much, Afto! I appreciate that! You're gonna love collecting helmets. Everyone is amazed by them and they are great conversation starters. Now, for a Purge Trooper helmet. I haven't purchased a Purge Trooper helmet from them, but I do have two other helmets they've made: Galaxy Toys on Etsy. If you want to see my reviews of their other helmets I purchased (TurboTank Driver and AT-ACT Driver) check my Star Wars helmets playlist. They are sturdy, well-built helmets, are well-priced and are mostly screen accurate (with a few exceptions.) This Purge Trooper helmet they have looks pretty good and you might consider giving that one a shot.

Nice collection, you ever buy from empire essentials? They're a shop off etsy, just ordered a commander Bacara the other day. Helmets look great but never had one in hand yet.
I have purchased a helmet from Empire Essentials, Fives; the Bo-Katan helmet. Other than the fact that the helmet was too small to fit my huge size 8 head, I was very happy with the purchase and the customer service. Keep in mind, because they air-brush paint their helmets, some of them have a more "artsy" look to them. Here's my review video of my purchase in case you're interested: th-cam.com/video/K_z-zLVFKWM/w-d-xo.html
@Paul's Collectibles thanks for the replay, yeah the communication has been top notch so far especially prior to purchase I had a few questions and they answered right away. They're also open to producing helmets they don't offer atm, I asked Matt if they could make a Sergeant Hound and he seemed Into it. So if my helmet comes as good as I hope I may hop on the next one too. Plus they offer 10% discount on helmets they haven't made yet.
Great collection! I would love to see a 1 on 1 comparison of the recent first order stormtrooper hasbro black series helmet vs the Anovos helmet. Especially the size is of interest to me. I know the design is different between e7 and e8&9 (teetht). But what about the hasbro size compared to anovos fos?! 🤓😉 wondering if hasbro is near to screen accurate size...
Gold Rush fa life, Trae! haha! Thank you for the kind words and for stopping by and checking out the video. It's ALWAYS nice to have another 'Niners fan around. Incidentally, I have two 49ers helmets, but that one is my pride and joy as it is signed by the GOAT himself: Joe Montana! Cheers!
Buzzing for this stream on Saturday! 2 of the coolest kids on TH-cam... in one place!? 👌 and I know what time to watch! 😉🤣 Amazing collection Paul! 👌 If space wasn't an issue I would indulge, as it stands I have several WW2 Helmets and I can't even figure out how to display them 😅 Love how you have them laid out in such a methodical way too mate! 👌 See you Saturday
The two coolest kids? We clearly have to expand your friend group, Christian! 😂😄 Just kidding! I appreciate that! And thank you for the kind words. And yeah, space becomes an issue with helmets very quickly, so I've had to be very specific and very directed about which helmets I buy so that I have some semblance of organization and order in my collection. And World War II helmets? Those sound awesome! I do enjoy militaria, being an army veteran myself, but I've never really gotten into buying any of the stuff. I'd love to see your collection sometime! I look forward to seeing you on Saturday!
@@PaulsCollectibles haha 🤣 I guess the challenge is that as more helmets are released you'll be more and more tempted though! Space is ALWAYS the issue 🤦♂️🤣 having said that, it also helps keep us collectors unders control! 🤣 Wow I didn't realise you are a vet, thank you for your service Paul 🙌 Yeah at some point I will do a little vid on the helmets (I have 5 in total) 😊 Just struggling to find the time to film at the moment 😒 See you Saturday Paul! 👍
Thank you very much, Jason! I appreciate that. Once you start collecting the helmets. It's hard to stop. Many of them are just so cool! I wish you the best in your collecting!
Thanks, Ryan! They are "Detolf" glass display cases from Ikea. Very inexpensive, pretty good looking and VERY popular in the collecting community. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Wow, thanks, K369! I really appreciate that! I installed an antenna on the standard back protrusion of the armor, but that full-on backpack is a great idea! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Ciaran, they are just 12" or 13" brushed metal paper towel holders that you can get from Costco or Bed Bath and Beyond and stores like that! There are inexpensive, they look good, and no one can tell the difference!
Thanks, Jack! These full size helmets are my first love and I've had fun trying to curate a properly planned collection... and a collection with helmets that were a bit more difficult to find! I appreciate you stopping by and checking out the video, sir!
@@PaulsCollectibles was interesting to learn about the different company’s who make them , as my knowledge on helmets is non existent. Lots of places out there by the sounds of it 👍
Great vid Paul. I just found you as I was looking for lighting options for my Detolfs. I too plan on displaying my SW helmets. What are those stands that your helmets are on? Thanks, and yes...new subscriber!
Thanks, Flex! I appreciate that. And thank you for subscribing! The helmet stands I am using are actually brushed metal paper towel holders from Costco. They 12 and a 1/2 inches tall and and about $11 each. You should see the look on the cashier's face when my wife buys them in bulk for me. It's hilarious! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@TuskenRaider72 Excellent! I'm glad to hear you were able to find them and I'm sure they're going to make your helmet collection look even better on display. Thanks for checking back in and letting me know! I get a kick out of being helpful when I can. 👍😄
Amazing collection! Still waiting my Mando helmet from Zavvi. Well atleast my Wedge helmet is coming today! We need Biggs black series helmet now so i can have Lukes Squad ready
Nice, Not Obi-Wan! And thank you for the kind words. I like having several versions of similar helmets as you can see as well. And whereas I have cultivated the Imperial forces, your a going for Rebel flyers! It's gonna look great! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Limpio, I know of no place you will be able to buy a quality Stormtrooper helmet for $200 or less that's ready to go. Your best bet is to search around on Etsy and ask lots of questions and get lots of pictures ahead of time if you find one. Most likely, however, if you want to stay at the $200 price point or below, you will have to buy a raw kit and build it yourself. At a higher price point, there are many options. Best of luck in finding one!
Great video Paul! Impressive collection of helmets! I wondered about those Dave's Armory helmets, but that Phase 1 bucket looks good. There was one helmet you didn't talk about .. looked kind of gold and red with letters on it? Idk what that was. I'm a Patriots fan btw ... 🤔😂
Thanks for the kind words, AJ! I appreciate that. I did an unboxing video on that Phase I clone helmet in case you want to see more. Suffice it to say it was a bit pricey, but the helmet quality was excellent, the interaction with the company was perfect, and it shipped super fast in a great container! I can highly recommend them. And the 49er helmet? Haha! Yeah, I grew up in northern California in the hey days of Joe Montana. It's signed by him. I have kind of lost interest in the NFL as of late, though. And the Patriots? That's weird, because you otherwise seem like a great guy! hahaha! Just kidding! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles signed by Joe Montana?! Wow! That's awesome. Every one liked Joe Montana. He was the best. Super cool to have that. I'll check out the Phase 1 helmet video.
Thanks, David! I appreciate the kind words. That Biker Scout helmet came from eFX Collectibles and their helmets are EXPENSIVE! I have since found another private vendor in the UK who make a great Scout Trooper helmet at a much more affordable price. I'm sure they will come up in conversation with Luke Reynolds (who is in the UK) on Saturday. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Good stuff bro! Ive seen this dude take the regular black series incinerator trooper helmet and weather it pretty good. Thing looked awesome at the end. 🤙🤙
Thank you for the kind words! And yeah! The hardest part about painting my Mortar Trooper helmet was deciding how much weathering to put on it. I was so excited about how the yellow paint came out, I ended up going really light on the weathering! Haha! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Is certainly can, Scoot. I have a Detolf case full of my favorite NFL team helmets downstairs and it has my other 49ers helmet in it. This one is the older style and has Joe Montana's autograph, so it gets its own special display case over near my computer so I can stare at it from time to time! haha!
Michael, they are 12" tall, brushed metal paper towel holders that you can get from Bed Bath and Beyond, Costco and the like! They work well, look great, they're inexpensive and no one is ever the wiser!
I don't know of any major retailers or makers that have them right now, Skers. Mine came from Anovos afew years back, which is now Denuo Novo. They have been bringing items back from previous releases, so keep an eye over there. Also, I believe there are a couple artisan shops on Etsy that make them. If you go that route, make sure you get lots of pictures and ask lots of questions so you know the quality is good. Finally, if you have Facebook, there are several helmet collecting groups you can join and then ask in those forums. There are a lot of good private makers out there and someone may offer one. Happy hunting!
Thanks, Jay! I appreciate that! And you, among a few people, have seen it grow over the years as well. And thanks for stopping by the Bad Batch live stream earlier tonight as well. It was good to see you!
Tony, I am using 12" or 13" tall brushed metal paper towel holders like the kind you can find at Costco or Bed bath and Beyond. They are inexpensive, look great, and no one notices the difference! Thanks for checking out the video!
Dylan, great question! I have a huge melon (size 8) and several Anovos helmets. Every one of them fits, and fits comfortably. The Death Trooper mashes my nose just a little, but all are VERY wearable! Thank you for stopping by and checking out the video!
Why thank you very much! That's very kind of you to say. I do enjoy collecting, talking about and producing videos on the Star Wars helmets. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Good catch ZZpie! I accidentally said "Phantom Menace" instead of "The Force Awakens!" You may also notice that I said "4-wheeled vehicles" instead of "4-legged vehicles" when I was talking about the AT-AT Driver helmet! I appreciate you stopping by and checking out the video!
@@ECHO.3218 Thanks, ZZpie! I appreciate the kind words. i try to make my videos at least mildly entertaining, while hopefully providing at least a little information. Good to have you around!
Thank you very much for the kind words, Simon! I greatly appreciate that! And I would love to see an overview video of your collection to check them out and to see how you display yours as well.
HR ORM, I've never picked one up because they are just a little too plain for my taste. Don't get me wrong, they're great helmets and I'd love to have one, but with the limited space and focus of my collection, I've stayed away from them. Thanks for checking out the video!
Haha! Thanks, Matt! I only ever intended to buy ONE stormtrooper helmet to display with other helmets we had. ONE. See how that worked out for me? Haha! Thanks for stopping by as always, sir!
@@PaulsCollectibles I feel ya man! I only intended on getting one .45 scaled lightsaber...I ended up with 12 .45 scaled sabers, 5 full scale Lightsaber replicas and 10 Force FX sabers (with more either planned or pre-ordered!)
Phantom menace you mean force awakens right?
Haha, yup, Jason! You caught that, did you? And I also called the AT-AT a "4 wheeled" vehicle. Getting old is getting hard on my brain! 😆 Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!

Amazing collection! Still waiting my Mando helmet from Zavvi. Well atleast my Wedge helmet is coming today! We need Biggs black series helmet now so i can have Lukes Squad ready
Nice, Not Obi-Wan! And thank you for the kind words. I like having several versions of similar helmets as you can see as well. And whereas I have cultivated the Imperial forces, your a going for Rebel flyers! It's gonna look great! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
I want a 200 dollar storm trooper helmet. But I dont want the black series one. Where can I get one that is not 800 dollars. Thank you!
Limpio, I know of no place you will be able to buy a quality Stormtrooper helmet for $200 or less that's ready to go. Your best bet is to search around on Etsy and ask lots of questions and get lots of pictures ahead of time if you find one. Most likely, however, if you want to stay at the $200 price point or below, you will have to buy a raw kit and build it yourself. At a higher price point, there are many options. Best of luck in finding one!
@@PaulsCollectibles Thank you!!
Great video Paul! Impressive collection of helmets! I wondered about those Dave's Armory helmets, but that Phase 1 bucket looks good. There was one helmet you didn't talk about .. looked kind of gold and red with letters on it? Idk what that was. I'm a Patriots fan btw ... 🤔😂
Thanks for the kind words, AJ! I appreciate that. I did an unboxing video on that Phase I clone helmet in case you want to see more. Suffice it to say it was a bit pricey, but the helmet quality was excellent, the interaction with the company was perfect, and it shipped super fast in a great container! I can highly recommend them. And the 49er helmet? Haha! Yeah, I grew up in northern California in the hey days of Joe Montana. It's signed by him. I have kind of lost interest in the NFL as of late, though. And the Patriots? That's weird, because you otherwise seem like a great guy! hahaha! Just kidding! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles signed by Joe Montana?! Wow! That's awesome. Every one liked Joe Montana. He was the best. Super cool to have that. I'll check out the Phase 1 helmet video.
Looks great Paul. I want that biker scout helmet
Thanks, David! I appreciate the kind words. That Biker Scout helmet came from eFX Collectibles and their helmets are EXPENSIVE! I have since found another private vendor in the UK who make a great Scout Trooper helmet at a much more affordable price. I'm sure they will come up in conversation with Luke Reynolds (who is in the UK) on Saturday. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles cool I’ll have to try and make the live stream
Where I can find those stand for the helmet ?
Good stuff bro! Ive seen this dude take the regular black series incinerator trooper helmet and weather it pretty good. Thing looked awesome at the end. 🤙🤙
Thank you for the kind words! And yeah! The hardest part about painting my Mortar Trooper helmet was deciding how much weathering to put on it. I was so excited about how the yellow paint came out, I ended up going really light on the weathering! Haha! Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles 🤙🤙
Can that 49ers helmet fit inside the Detolf?
Is certainly can, Scoot. I have a Detolf case full of my favorite NFL team helmets downstairs and it has my other 49ers helmet in it. This one is the older style and has Joe Montana's autograph, so it gets its own special display case over near my computer so I can stare at it from time to time! haha!
Where did you get the helmet stands from? :)
Michael, they are 12" tall, brushed metal paper towel holders that you can get from Bed Bath and Beyond, Costco and the like! They work well, look great, they're inexpensive and no one is ever the wiser!
Alot of beautiful helmets nice collection!
Thank you very much for the kind words, ehyoumon! I'm pretty fond of them myself! I appreciate you stopping by and checking out the video as well!
Is there anywhere to still buy that death trooper?
I don't know of any major retailers or makers that have them right now, Skers. Mine came from Anovos afew years back, which is now Denuo Novo. They have been bringing items back from previous releases, so keep an eye over there. Also, I believe there are a couple artisan shops on Etsy that make them. If you go that route, make sure you get lots of pictures and ask lots of questions so you know the quality is good. Finally, if you have Facebook, there are several helmet collecting groups you can join and then ask in those forums. There are a lot of good private makers out there and someone may offer one. Happy hunting!
What helmet stand did you use for your helmets?
I use 12" tall, brushed metal, paper towel holders from Costco. They work perfectly!
Awesome man...such a nice display
Thanks, Jay! I appreciate that! And you, among a few people, have seen it grow over the years as well. And thanks for stopping by the Bad Batch live stream earlier tonight as well. It was good to see you!
Hi what do you use to mount the helmets?
Tony, I am using 12" or 13" tall brushed metal paper towel holders like the kind you can find at Costco or Bed bath and Beyond. They are inexpensive, look great, and no one notices the difference! Thanks for checking out the video!
3:05 from force unleashed
You are correct!
Do anovos helmets fit big heads??
Dylan, great question! I have a huge melon (size 8) and several Anovos helmets. Every one of them fits, and fits comfortably. The Death Trooper mashes my nose just a little, but all are VERY wearable! Thank you for stopping by and checking out the video!
@@PaulsCollectibles thank you!
this is soo cool the helmets are amazing good chanel!
Why thank you very much! That's very kind of you to say. I do enjoy collecting, talking about and producing videos on the Star Wars helmets. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
The first order helmet was not in the phantom menace
Good catch ZZpie! I accidentally said "Phantom Menace" instead of "The Force Awakens!" You may also notice that I said "4-wheeled vehicles" instead of "4-legged vehicles" when I was talking about the AT-AT Driver helmet! I appreciate you stopping by and checking out the video!
You are good this is the content I have been looking for but can’t find
@@ECHO.3218 Thanks, ZZpie! I appreciate the kind words. i try to make my videos at least mildly entertaining, while hopefully providing at least a little information. Good to have you around!
Gorgeous helmet collection, I'll have to do a vid of mine also soon
Thank you very much for the kind words, Simon! I greatly appreciate that! And I would love to see an overview video of your collection to check them out and to see how you display yours as well.
@@PaulsCollectibles hopefully very soon my friend 👍
Anyone have a link for the ikea displays?

Snow Trooper Helmet?
HR ORM, I've never picked one up because they are just a little too plain for my taste. Don't get me wrong, they're great helmets and I'd love to have one, but with the limited space and focus of my collection, I've stayed away from them. Thanks for checking out the video!
Amazing video!
Thank you, Gabriel. Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.
Thanks for sharing sir
You're welcome, Huz! Hopefully it was mildly enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!
Impressive! Most impressive.
Haha! Thanks, Matt! I only ever intended to buy ONE stormtrooper helmet to display with other helmets we had. ONE. See how that worked out for me? Haha! Thanks for stopping by as always, sir!
@@PaulsCollectibles I feel ya man! I only intended on getting one .45 scaled lightsaber...I ended up with 12 .45 scaled sabers, 5 full scale Lightsaber replicas and 10 Force FX sabers (with more either planned or pre-ordered!)
this is sick
Thank you very much! And I appreciate you stopping by and checking out the video!
Me: hey, lets see how much nice helmets cost. The helmet: yo im 200 dollars oh, thats cheap im 330 the boba helmet: sup im 700+
