Preorder This Star War: Knights Of The Old Republic Helmet And Cosplay As Darth Revan
We’re still waiting on that Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake, and although it’s apparently still in development, we won’t be seeing it anytime soon. Luckily, you can preorder your own life-sized Darth Revan helmet from GameStop, allowing you to take matters into your own hands when it releases in August and remake KOTOR yourself in your backyard or living room.
The helmet, from Halloween costume and toy company Jazwares, will run you $80, and GameStop offers free shipping on preorders over $59. It’s slated to release on August 30.
According to the listing, the officially licensed plastic helmet is 17×17 inches and weighs roughly four pounds. It includes an interior sizing band to help it fit your head, as well as a fabric hood to more closely match Revan’s look in the game. If you want to complete the look, you could pair the helmet with the Star Wars Black Series Darth Revan lightsaber.
While you’re waiting for your KOTOR helmet and the KOTOR remake, there’s still other KOTOR to hold you over. There are four novels that expand on the Old Republic period detailed in KOTOR. Two of those stories, The Old Republic: Revan and The Old Republic: Annihilation, were written by former BioWare writer Drew Karpyshyn, who was a major force in creating the KOTOR story. You can find all four on Amazon. Check out the list of Old Republic books below.
