This helmet has a great look to it. Just like the pictures - it balances well between real life and the anime aesthetics. I did manage to get Char’s eye mask to fit inside for display (from the other Char Aznable helmet they released), but it was difficult and does not seem to have been thought of in the initial design of this helmet replica.

It is very easy to wear, but again, if you want to wear an eye mask it might be difficult. Additionally, the helmet is essentially a solid piece so it does not breath very well when you have it on.

The only thing that was a little disappointing to me was that this helmet did not get a stand like the Char Aznable Stahlhelm did. You could balance it on that stand, however it isn’t really stable/made for it. Instead, the box has a tear-away flap you can use as a Zeon mat for it to sit on.

It looks great side by side with Char's regular helmet - if you can find it, it is a quality piece.
