    GA Flash Custom Question

    I think this is the right forum for this question.

    My question is, "Did Lion Rock make any kind of figure with a doughboy type helmet?".

    I would love to make a Golden Age Flash custom and I am stymied for what to do about a helmet.

    The best thing I can think of is a WWI US or UK soldier's helmet. Did Lion Rock produce such a thing? (I have spent a fair amount of time searching for such with no success.)

    I know Doc has a helmet and while I love his stuff, the pictures I have seen of that particular item look to be a bit big and fairly pitted. (Mr. Clarke, I love ya' so if you read this, don't take it as in insult.)

    Anyone have a suggestion for me?

    Doc Mego has a Mego sized one.

      Give Starbuk here on the boards a shout. I know he has made a few silicon Jay Garrick helmets in the past for people.
      Of all the souls I have encountered his was the most...human.

        It's not Hard to do a helmet I sculpted my own.For this helmet i used Model Magic. I fit it to his head made the shape.Once I had something I liked I then cut around it. I then got an Imprint Of Captain America's wings and added them to the Helmet.Let it dry.Then Painted it.

        Here is a Helmet I made for my own Superhero I created.

          I agree. Doctor Mego is the only way to go. He crafted this baby out of a fireman helmet and recast them in this style.

            Doc's is fairly decent. I used one (although I Dremeled & sanded a bit here and there and still have some pitting). It looks good on display.

                This has long plagued my GA Flash custom. I have yet to come up with a solution I like, but those are all very nice!

                  I've got one of Buk's as well. It's a good look, and not too clunky.
