A Mobile Infantry helmet from Paul Verhoeven's sci-fi satire Starship Troopers. Mobile Infantry troopers wore their standard-issue helmets throughout training, in propaganda videos, and during their planet-hopping campaign against the Arachnids.

This foam-padded fibreglass helmet is painted green-grey with Mobile Infantry logos on the front and back, mounted with a resin sight, and affixed at the neck with a black foam chin strap. Also included is a clear plastic visor which has come loose from the helmet since production. Its current paint scheme and accessories were added for the production of J. Michael Straczynski's Babylon 5 spin-off series Crusade, in which members of the Earthforce armed forces wore standard-issue helmets. The helmet is hand-numbered "8" in two places on the interior and exhibits scratching, small fractures in the fibreglass, and flaking paint from production wear and age.

Estimate: £600 - 800 Ω
