Want to have the shiniest collectible ever, all the while knowing the money you spent on it is going to a good cause? Sounds like you need to bid on the Swarovski crystal Master Chief helmet created to help promote Halo 5: Guardians . Well, and raise money for charity too, of course. But mainly, it’s about building hype.
Xbox Taiwan had a cosplayer named Hsu Chia-Hao and a designer named Jenny Manik Mercian work together on an elaborate Master Chief helmet. Weighing in at 11 pounds, the helmet is identical to the one worn by the character in Halo 5 . The only difference is, this one is covered in over 25,000 Swarovski crystals.
Here’s how this Halo 5 helmet was made.
The Master Chief helmet is on eBay now, with the auction ending on November 5. Bidding has passed $2,000 as of writing, and all of the money raised will go the the Make-a-Wish Foundation. Here’s hoping whoever gets this realizes how lucky they are and how awesome it is.
