Recreate Luke Skywalker's iconic headwear from A New Hope with this Lego Star Wars Luke Skywalker (Red Five) Helmet.
Despite its small stature, Lego Star Wars Luke Skywalker Helmet is instantly recognizable, and that’s largely thanks to the fantastic detailing around the top and sides of the helmet. There are some fantastic printed pieces used here – which, from a collector’s standpoint, will likely make this a valuable set to own once it’s retired and out of print.
However, they’re juxtaposed with some stickers, which is disappointing. There are some fiddly placements, too, like around the curves of the earpieces, and not getting them lined up correctly can somewhat ruin the aesthetic. Lego’s use of stickers in display sets is a continuous bone of contention, and here, used alongside printed pieces, it feels particularly egregious.
Still, it’s easy to forgive when you cast your eyes on the Red Five Helmet as a whole. The shape of the helmet is wonderful, with the back and sides created by layering separately-built pieces onto an internal structure. Red stripes catch the eye by running down the top and back of the helmet, and they’re accompanied by two pieces of cabling. The effect is great, but getting them in place is rather frustrating: it’ll likely take a few attempts to get everything to sit flush to the helmet.
Of course, the iconic orange translucent goggles attached to the helmet deserve a shout-out, too. Non-standard building techniques are used to get their rounded edges and, although the shape and size doesn’t quite match the real thing, it’s close enough. Surprisingly, they feel sturdy, too, despite appearing to float in front of the helmet.
