Full-size helmet buying guide
Start with helmet fit and display location. Then choose the materials, UV protection, and viewing features that suit your collectible.
Measure the complete helmet in its intended display position, including the facemask, chinstrap, and any separate stand. Allow clearance around the collectible so the cover does not touch the shell or autograph.
A shelf or desk display should leave room to lift the cover. For wall placement, choose the dedicated wall-mounted model and allow space above its lifting lid. Position the signature or team logo toward the main viewing direction.
Include the facemask and any accessory in all three measurements. An oversized helmet or added stand may need more clearance.
Use a tabletop case on a stable surface with enough depth for the entire base. Choose a purpose-built wall case to keep shelf space open.
Real-glass designs pair clear panels with hardwood. Acrylic designs offer black bases, including two-tier gold and silver riser options.
The rectangular and octagon glass cases offer 50% regular glass or 99% conservation glass. The black-base acrylic case has 85% UV resistance.
Mirrors reveal additional helmet details. The octagon case has three mirrored rear panels and a mirrored bottom; the rectangular glass case has a mirrored back and bottom.
Leave space to open or remove the cover. Position the helmet so its signature is visible without moving it each time you want a closer look.
