Headgear

Post by Reaper45 »

Of the headgear, helmets and hats, available to Lego minifigures at the moment, which are appropriate for medieval life?

Aside from what already appears or has appeared in Castle sets, I would use:

I knew it appeared in a chess set, but I was unsure if it appeared in a normal release set...now that I think about it, the troll witch has it. Haha.

I would love for the AT-ST driver helm to come in a match metallic color like the current castle helmets.

I've always felt that this Image headdress would make a great alternative to the cone hat for a female minifig. It's too bad that it only comes in black. Even worse is the fact that it will set you back almost $20 for a single piece making it hard to justify unless you happen to have a Luminara Unduli minifig laying around. Still, if you've got one it's definitely a piece to consider.

He who thinks you should look at the box that says "Quaraga" if you want to find out his username (about as useful to you as his real name). he only wants you to look so he can laugh about you looking there because he's a total smart...

I've just got the Jan. 2011 catalog, and noticed that this head-piece has returned in the set called Battle for Geonosis (7869). Perhaps these will start becoming available at more sensible prices before long.

Yes, this in red or white for the Lion Knights or dark green for the Dragon Knights would be nice. The price is a bit restricting.

There is also the "Fez" from Indiana Jones sets.
