Kira - I accepted a long time ago that the helmet will only be available by what ever means at what ever time 343 decides it will be. I have always been fascinated by BoB though.
I am starting to believe that there is more to BoB than we think in a broader sense relevant to the Halo Universe and timeline.
He doesn't just go cloaked, he seems to step through a portal of sorts. I think he's a time traveler by way of some advanced Slip-Space Technology. And I say "he" because I am also starting to think, based on this theory that there is actually only a singular BoB.
As further evidence, he is the only enemy that spawns at different locations, all other enemies have set locations. Which makes sense in that if you were trying to alter events through time travel and were failing you would try different things such as showing up at different times and places, and maybe even have different physical appearances (White BoB).
Finally, and this I have no real proof of, but I sometimes wonder if BoB is even an Elite. If you look into the helmet in the right lighting it looks like something other than an Elite.
-The helmet might be made available in Halo 4... can't really since since we have little-to-no information concerning the armoury.
-That's a nice theory and all but honestly, time traveling is stretching it. I guess it could work to some extent, but even so, you'd probably be left with more questions than answers.
- He is an elite, you can see part of his jaw "pop out" of his mask when you kill him.
If reference to your second point, after listening to Ghost of Onyx on audio the are a few times where it is said that while traveling through slip-space, time and reality are distorted. Halsey even wonders to herself if she's in the right reality/timeline at one point.
