Zing.

I just super-pro-photoshopped (aka Paint) Mickys shoulder pad/arm over Dares and you'd be suprised at how sudenly your size perception of the helmet changes. I'm at work at the moment so I can't upload it, but try it for yourself in paint, it takes about 2mins and you'll see what I mean.

Her Recon helmet is supposed to be big, so that her regular sized head can fit inside of it.

If all of the ODSTs took off their armor except for their helmet, their head would be bigger too.
That may be true, but it still looks wierd.

I would like to hear an explanation for why ODSTs can't throw grenades as far as Master Chief, but they can rip turrets off their metal bases and carry them around with little effort. - As for the music, there is nothing that breaks the atmosphere like randomly placed saxophone solos. You're supposed to be in a warzone, and it sounds like the softcore -blam!- they show on Cinemax after midnight. During one battle we were treated to some of the cheesiest, squeedle-ridden guitar ever heard in a game.

I agree, I just don't understand the purpose of only wearing the helmet, aside from celebrating a certain holiday.

Regardless, it still looks abnormally large. I suppose it makes sense, especially if the general dimensions are identical to the MJOLNIR R variant, which would make the MJOLNIR Recon helmet look normal in comparison to its own body armor because of said bulky armor, which is contrary to what Dare wears.

But yeah, it looks abnormal and out-of-place, regardless of how accurate it is.

Just. Just. Just. Never mind.
The second part of the post is the bit that was intended to be used as reference:

in other words Dare doesnt wear Armor Plating

  • 06.04.2009 7:04 AM PDT

finally someone with brains! she doesn't wear armore plating on her shoulders (which makes her pretty small, thereby she's a girl which are supposed to be a bit smaller (yes I know! that can be different...))

If you wear a (motorcycle) helmet without ther other gear it would look stupid too!

I see your point, Duardo, but the way she has no/little shoulder armor makes the upper part of her body, specifically her head, out of proportion. It may not be, but the size of the helmet gives the illusion that it is.

DO U LIKE MEN

really not the size it just does not match the suit and bottom is marine and army and the helmet is spartan like a spartan helmet on a marine would look weird too

  • 06.04.2009 7:15 AM PDT

It looks like she bought the collectors edition of some video game and is just wearing the helmet that came with it.

Looks like she is wearing a light-weight armor. Probably for more stealth. If this is the case, she probably would just grab her helmet, though she could've used another.

About time someone had some common sense about this. Has no one else on B.net ever seen a motorcycle helmet? Hint: it's bigger than the head it goes on.

Nothing is better than gaming through the day, into the night, then back into the day. It's like when you finally push that power button you feel like you've accomplished nothing, but at the same time, you can't stop smiling.

The only reason you guys are saying it's small is because you're used to seeing the Recon helmet on a Spartan, and Spartan bodies are huge. So it really is the perfect size.

  • 06.04.2009 8:01 AM PDT

Her head is the perfect size, her helmet isn't.

I still don't think it's too big, you guys have been watching Spartan for waaay too long now.

Go to ODST's Project page and check the field guide, load up Dare's .MOV file. It doesn't look that bad.

Like I said, I'll try and get a pic up of the shoulder armour on her when I get home, it changes the perspective right away. Some one posted a comparison in another thread where they shrank her head to what people 'expect' it to be, and it is quite shocking how small her head would have to be for you to consider the helmet a normal size.

It still looks really weird. Perhaps if the rest of her armor was bulkier it'd look normal.

I prefer señor Legendary Member.

Roadhouse.
I have seen the powers at hand and I can honestly say I am not ready

I don't think of it as big as much as I think it looks weird.
