Very disppointed as the helmet merely amplifies child's voice with some background static. We were rather expecting some Darth Vader type booming voice to emerge. Also helmet is very large, more suited for adult fancy dress than children.

Great for star wars fans

My two sons are Star Wars fanatics. My 9 year old especially loves the clone troopers. The helmet is big (my head can fit it it) and the kids do look like bobbleheads as the other reviewer mentioned. The voice changer could be better but the other reviewer was too critical. The point is to sound like a clone trooper not like Darth Vader. So it doesn't do much to change the voice because after all, clone troopers are just cloned humans anyways. And there are the other buttons which sound out phrases from the Clone wars movie. My son thinks "it's perfect."

I was nervous getting it because of the reviews to be honest. I love reading them because it helps me decide of the price is worth the risk of maybe getting a crappy item.
I took the risk.
And am glad.
I have a small three year old and a 5 year old who are star wars NUTS. I figured if anything they would just get a kick out of it. I wasnt disappointed nor were my children.
Review:
It came in 4 pieces that you just fit together and snap into place. If you do not do it right then the helmet will come apart. If you have a bit of patience and fit it together as it should be... it'll stay. I did not have patience the first time and when my son put it on.. the back fell off.
MY BAD! Once I took the few minutes. It fit right and we were good to go!
The advertised voice changer... is really just a mic that projects your voice but to be honest.. for 20 bucks. (I got the flash sale one) Its still effin cool. It has buttons that plays the troopers voices and various saying though.. which was a big hit.
It is large.. but thats okay. The kids, as small as they are, can wear it just fine. And the strap set to the smallest setting - fit them *perfectly* and it will readjust to fit an adult (so the husband was happy)
One con: if you buy it for a child year old, do not expect it to fit so perfect that their mouths will be near the mic.
I took the risk.

Lives up to expectations

Our 8 yr old wanted to spend some Christmas money on this item. We were very happy to find it on Amazon for $25. We had looked at it in many other stores for anywhere from $30 - $50. I read him some reviews from here, particularly regarding the "voice changer" before purchasing, but he wanted it anyway.
He LOVES this toy. It does require snapping together, and was a little tricky, but not too bad. The "voice changer" does not. And the microphone does not reach his mouth, so he really does not use that part of the helmet. Nevertheless, he loves playing with it, and being a clone trooper. He is a little smaller than average, but has never complained that the helmet hurt him or was too heavy. Mostly he uses his own voice and commands. He wears it outside, playing imagination battle games. It has been dropped on hard floors several times, but has not broken.
Although this clearly is false advertising, regarding the voice-changing function (which doesn't), nevertheless, it was a good investment for Daniel.
