Preparing for your first mission as a Clone Trooper is quick and easy. Before you assemble the helmet, adjust the straps on the insert to fit your child, then snap it into place. We had to try several times before the two back pieces and the front of the helmet snapped together neatly. Once we got the three pieces aligned correctly, they attached securely, producing a sleek, sturdy helmet. The three "AA" batteries that power audio features come already installed. Featuring realistic details, including a tinted visor, a crest on top, and clone-inspired colors, this durable, plastic helmet has three buttons on the right side that prompt five different sayings from the Clone Wars TV show. A button that issues radio static keeps communication interesting, and commands like "Cover Me!" and "All units fire at will!" add a quick adrenaline rush to any battle. Plus, there's a voice-modulator microphone so kids (and adults) can issue their own statements in a cool clone voice. Experience Intergalactic Role Playing
Whether part of a Halloween custom, an everyday role-playing game, or a display in the ultimate collector's bedroom, this Clone Trooper helmet brings home all the excitement of Star Wars. We were floored by the accuracy and durability of its construction. Plus the tinted visor was much easier to see through than we expected, as long as the helmet was sized correctly. The size and weight that make this helmet so realistic and durable did cause us to worry about how easy it would be for smaller children to wear. It's true that the straps inside adjust to fit small heads, but that doesn't prevent the size of the helmet itself from being awkward. Similarly, the microphone is adjustable, but it can still be stuck too far away from a small child's mouth. This means that the helmet has to be lifted by hand to speak through the microphone. When it's positioned close enough to the wearer's face, the microphone does a good job amplifying statements and commands, as well as providing the static you'd expect from a clone. It's ability to truly modify and deepen a voice is less reliable, although this doesn't really detract from the fun. Overall, it's hard to beat a toy that encourages active, imaginative play the way this helmet does. Even adults who are loyal to the original trilogy are likely to enjoy slipping the Clone Trooper helmet on and taking part in the struggles of the Republic. What's in the Box

 Clone Tooper Voice Changer Helmet January 6, 2009
This is one of those toys that a child thinks they HAVE to have. As a parent you think, hmm how long will the interest last. This is probably the favorite thing our Son received for Christmas. The newness is wearing off but he still loves it. He loves making his own star wars shorts with the new webcam.
 my nephew loved this December 28, 2008
My K-age nephew loved this "Star Wars hat" before he even knew it had the voice changer. I had given a Darth Vader helmet to his slightly older brother a year earlier and they immediately exchanged presents amongst themselves. Right gifts, wrong nephews. I should mention that I am a preschool teacher and halted momentarily when I came to the question about educational value. It is not the alphabet, but I had to say that it is educational because young children learn through play. Dramatic play is one of the ways they develop abstract thinking. And he played and played with this. Give a few books, as I did, to appease your conscience, if you must. Better yet, join in the play. I also enjoyed saving the $100.00 I would have spent additionally if I had actually walked into a Target store instead of buying this through Amazon. Great gift. Right nephew. Great shopping experience.
Does not change your voice December 27, 2008
I got this for my nephew for Christmas and was a little disappointed with this helmet. While it looks really cool and the pre programmed voices sound great, there is no real voice changer or voice amplifier. Thankfully, my nephew was not disappointed by the helmet. Not recommended if you're looking to have a voice changer - recommended it you just want to look cool in a clone trooper helmet.
 Clone Trooper Helmet December 16, 2008
The helmet looks very neat. But--it is huge; my son is 5 and it won't stay properly on his head regardless of any adjustments inside the helmet itself. It was interesting to him for about 2 days and then I think it is just too cumbersome for him and he lost interest. It needs to be made overall smaller.
 CHEAPER!!! December 16, 2008
