Ben Caulkins Creatively Designs the Master Chief Helmet with LEGO

A guy named Ben Caulkins proves that even without polyurethane plastic and molds, you can recreate Master Chief's head using LEGO. He's built the 'Halo' helmet entirely out of these building blocks (with the exception of the visor of course), with the inside padded with cut-up squares of mattress for comfort.

If this doesn't amaze you, you should know that this piece is actually life-size. Though it won't protect you from a head shot, this Ben Caulkins Master Chief LEGO helmet creation is still undeniably cool.
