Excellent idea, Tanotrooper! The helm wearer could be a cavalryman riding, and the wind would make his helmet feather flutter behind.
By the way, where did you get the blue flame?

its actually orange, my scanner makes it look like blue :? But you can buy blue flames on bricklink. I had my knights laying around and i saw a flame, i played a little and i said "why not?" and it fitted. Had to share it with you guys. : :D

Hey Nick,

Check here. The flame piece is available in trans orange in a ton of sets, but also in trans green and trans blue.

That is an interesting idea. I would rather have something opque(sorry if I misspelled that). I guess I could paint it.

Huh? Is that an obscure english word or just a miss-spelling?

I believe the word lil Jon is searching for is "opaque", meaning "not transparent".

Also there's a trans-purple one in a Spiderman 2 set.

hmm... pretty creative idea, but... it looks a bit too much like... well, fire to me. :-) Also, it seems a bit large and unwieldy. Not to say I hate it, it's not a bad idea, just not for me.

Well, Lego is all about adaptation and imagination, and this idea is certainly very original and imaginative. I'd use if I had some helmets that have the place to fix the flames to.
