Mega Man Replica Helmet

Donated by Joe Worm

Made by Capcom and worn by the coolest of Mega Man fans, this helmet is the thing you longed for as a child, when you cut out one side of a cardboard box, coloured it blue and ran around the house in search of Energy Tanks. You did do that, right? That… that wasn’t just us?

The helmet comes with soft padding so you can adjust it to better fit your head. The crest of the helmet opens to take batteries that light up the side panels. Yes, it lights up! The lawyerly instructions included with the helmet make clear that it is neither a safety item nor a toy, but we all know that’s categorically untrue. It will keep you safe from ever being as un-awesome as those who do not own such a helmet, and it is very clearly something for play and fun and imagination – ie: a toy. So let that inner child out and make it giddily, crazily happy with this fantastic Mega Man helmet!

Materials:

  • Highly polished ABS plastic
  • (2) AA batteries for LED lights
  • Interior helmet soft padding

Measurements:

  • 14″ tall x 11″ wide
  • Weight: 3 lbs

Autographed Tom Servo Replica

Created and donated by Darian Glover

 
Autographed Tom Servo Replica

Forget about Echo, Siri, and that Roomba that’s gathering dust. Now you can have your own personal robot. Er, puppet. This fully functioning replica Tom Servo has been autographed by the cast of Cinematic Titanic: Joel Hodgson, Trace Beaulieu, J. Elvis Weinstein, Frank Conniff, and Mary Jo Pehl. It is so exact and well-made that Mary Jo was stunned to see Tom in the flesh (or in the plastic?) and Joel attempted to goad J. Elvis into operating Tom. Tom’s mouth, head, and arms are fully operable to a level of authenticity that allows you to experience the “fun” of his operators and ‘bot wranglers (see Poopie! tapes). Simply repeat to yourself “It’s just a show, I should just really relax.” Bid high to keep this advanced sarcasm sequencing technology from falling into the wrongs hands.

Tom Servo is a special snowflake, a complicated being, and as such involves a lot of parts. Materials include: replica cast resin Money Lover Barrel Bank, toy engine block, and ventriloquist’s dummy hands. Vacuformed Eveready lantern bezels and Tyco Turbo Trains. Replica hoverskirt (bowl) with foam trim (spare unpainted trim included, not pictured). Genuine Carousel Executive Snack Dispenser and C’More Bunz arms with air bladder. PVC pipe and other special parts formerly used to control a private screening room’s projection booth.

Tom measures approximately 12.5″ diameter by 23″ tall (31.75 cm diameter by 58.4 cm).

About the artist:
Tom’s maker, Darian, comes from a long line of craftsmen, but makes his living as a contractor cobbling together e-mails, meetings, and occasionally strings of code to make information technology work for the U.S. Federal Government in Washington, DC. On occasion he will take on a personal project to stretch his creative muscle.
