Create a SciFi Space Helmet for Less then $20

I dare you to make a power rangers suit and video.

I found instructions for a "retro" style space helmet. Originally published in "Science and Mechanics" magazine in August of 1962 (2 months before I was born), I think these plans could be used as is or modified to resemble the EVA Suits from "ALIEN" or even "Firefly" with relative ease. The plans can be found on-line at: http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2006/04/05/junior-cadet-space-helmet

where are you supposed to get tap lights whatever they're called?

That was AWESOME! But how did you do the flying in Space effect?

i love the vans!

So I don't have a a old tv to get the visor. Good ideas for alternatives?

Wait a minute...Where's the used leg warmer(knee sock circa 1984)?!?... (in a space helmet?)Oh, Eeeww!!! Hah ah ah Aaah!
