Star Wars Day – New Stormtrooper And Boba Fett Electronic Helmets Launch On Disney Store

It used to be that if you wanted to dress up as a Star Wars Stormtrooper, your options were limited to cheap masks unless you invested heavily in a set of 501st-approved armor or learned how to make your own. These days? While you’ll still need a decent chunk of change for that iconic white armor, at least getting your hands on a helmet isn’t complicated. Previously an Amazon exclusive, Hasbro’s Black Series Imperial Stormtrooper voice-changing helmet is now available on the Disney Store. The helmet is just one of many new additions to Disney’s catalog as part of the Star Wars Day celebrations. Joining the Stormtrooper helmet is the new Boba Fett Prototype Armor helmet, a pretty cool collectible for those interested in the history of Star Wars.

The Stormtrooper helmet retails for $105 on the Disney Store, and you can get free shipping with promo code SHIPMAGIC. It’s worth noting the Stormtrooper helmet isn’t available directly from Amazon at the moment, and it’s unclear if it will be restocked. You can still buy it from third-party resellers, but the price is currently sitting at $130 minimum (plus shipping).

This Imperial Stormtrooper helmet is based on the cannon fodder trooper from Star Wars: Rogue One, and includes fine details based on that film’s Stormtrooper armor. It features an adjustable fit so that it can securely sit on most noggins, but the cool thing here is the inclusion of an electronic voice-changer. With that powered on, you’ll sound like you’re communicating through a ham radio at your next convention. As mentioned, this helmet was previously an Amazon-exclusive helmet, but after it quickly sold out, resellers were listing this helmet for hundreds of dollars at one point, so it’s nice to see it available at retail price again.
