Actually the biggest Jango bucket I have seen is the MLC. Side to side it is 10 1/2 inches, then front to back it is 11 inches. I would say its roughly the size of a stroomtrooper FX bucket. So if you are 6' 2" or taller the MLC should work fine for ya. If you are shorter I may stay away from it so you do not look like a boble head.

I would just personally recommend the BKBT for size. I'm just now reaching 6'7 and a 1/2 in height now, and the thing looks proportionate to the rest of my body, Im not skinny either. Just a recommendation for you to take a look at, also VERY accurate as far as Jango helmet details. Goodluck!

If i can add my 2 cents to this one, the MLC helmets are huge. If you're a big guiy and/or wear glasses, they're a good choice if you can get one.
As for the Jango 2-piece, color me shocked. I was at a guy's house trying to help him with his gear to get into the Legion and he pulled one of these out.
The plastic is more rigid than the vinyl 1 piece but a little lighter. The lines were crisper than I would have expected.
Overall, if I were a smaller guy and needed a starter helmet, this would be a decent base. Add a little bondo and you're good to go.

Who makes the MLC? Where those dimensions internal or external? If you wish PM me so we can keep it off the boards, oh and also is the MLC a boba or does he offer a Jango as well? It appears so far the biggest Jango helmet is a BKBT but the MH boba is a tad larger than that!

You're of similar height to Jango Newbie...and a BKBT fits his big azz head perfectly...so a BKBT would look perfect on you.

heh Im pretty skinny so it might actually look huge on me, havent seen one in person to judge. Im actually perfect size for an ARC if you go by how freakishly skinny the action figure is. Good thing thats my next project (armor wise).

Yeah, thats what I was thinking when I saw the pic that I'm about to post below. The helmet is for my 4 year old and I was hoping that it was gonna be on the small side. But from what I've heard, he's gonna swim in it. Oh well, I guess he'll just have to look like a Pez dispenser again this year. The Vader pic below is his costume from last year.

And sort of OT, but what the hell - Jacobs saber; I wish I had this for him in 05... It can be blue, green, purple, silver, orange, and red.

Those were the dimensions at the inside of the helmet at the very lower part. I know for sure he makes them in Jango because this is what I have currently. If you are a big guy or just looking for a roomy bucket this one is very nice and well made. If you want to get ahold of him just do a search for MLC and PM him, hes a very easy guy to work with. As far as sizing I am 6'2" and 195lbs, and also wear glasses. It is super roomy inside. I may drop down to (refering to size) to a BKBT in the future..not sure as of yet. Basically if you want a bigger bucket go for a MLC or BKBT, both very nice buckets.
