Editors: The Destructoid helmet leaves a trail of blood and ruin
Niero \| 4:45 PM on 06.24.2008	52 comments

A couple of nights ago the editors and I were talking about the Destructoid Helmet, which as you know is made of various sheets of metal I hammered together in a drunken hurry to wear something notable to E3 some years ago when we started the site. I didn't have the foresight to sand the thing down. There's some photos of us where my fingers are all bloody, its pretty embarrassing. I really love letting people wear it when we go places, but at their own risk! Here's what they said:

Dyson: That damn helmet is pretty lethal. I almost killed a girl at the White Wolf party with it

Topher: I actually have a scar on my finger from the original one. I'm not kidding.

Chad: Yeah, I cut my neck a little when I wore it in Miami. Amazing. :) :)

Topher: It hurts because it loves.

Brad: Then what are the AIDS the helmet gives? A wedding ring?

CTZ: Buttplugs.

Mr. Destructoid's favorite sound is the lamentation of women.

Actually, the helmet gave me a +2 Intelligence buff

wardrox

mmm, pain.

Bob Muir

I'm suddenly scared to try it on. Not because of the bleeding, mind you, but because of my epic hair. I don't want it caught in that thing.

bluemeep

That's not a severed artery, that's a love bite.

DaedHead8

Mr. Destructoid requires penace from his robot army.

Cowzilla3

Only Hamza could sum it up so well.

topgeargorilla

13thDragon

It's horrible dark thirst is only quenched by the pure blood of gamers!!!!!

Aertyr

I hate hitting buttons randomly, now I look like a douche.

Also, what what in the butt?

aborto thefetus

It's actually made of metal? damn, I thought it was cardboard with foil wrapped around it.

The more you know.....

bhive01

Niero, you should totally get someone who works with metal to make you a new one and get them to soften all of the edges and make it of aluminum. It's stainless steel isn't it? That's heavy shit.

MaximusPaynicus

When is D'toid going to go all out and build a fuckin' monster truck?

Samit Sarkar

My lips started bleeding afterwards.

...but then, they tend to do that in the winter. They’re always so damn chapped.

Aaron Mxy Yost

The Destructoid helmet raped me.

Crunshii

lawlz. for the first time Dtoid looks like is fearing for his life on that samit pic. Look @ the eyes!!! lmao.

Brian Szabelski

Expect the Super Helmet soon, guys. It's awesome.

LarkOhiya

the helmet is as big and lethal as it looks in pictures you have my word for it. I think it took of layers of skin from my ears >.>

CaptainApocalypse

I just want to know when you're gonna start selling them in the store. DO WANT!

Buster

nothing happened to me when i wore the helmet except all the pictures that got taken of me in it were too blurry :(... maybe its cuase i was wearing a ninja mask as well

Dynamic Sheep

I wanna' wear it!!! Who wouldn't want to see a robot with an epic red beard?

Teta

I fell off the stairs, I swear.
No it wasn´t the helmet, I fell off the stairs, i fell of the staiiiirs.

Dtoid Helmet: Cutting bitches' faces off since 2006

Coonskin05

I am willing to sacrifice my body for the Helmet.

PaperBowser0

eeek......sounds painful.....painfully FUN!!

Red TheHaze Veron

I would love to get the chance to wear the real one. I could only imagine how much yours weighs in comparison with the new one I made.

AngelsDontBurn

I swear something poked my head wearing it, lol. Wearing a beanie underneath totally makes sense.

Batthink

Put silver-coloured foam around the sharp-edges. Should sort out the laceration issues.

TheToiletDuck

that's what she said

BluDesign

I'm with the editors and Daedhead.

Mr. Destructoid requires blood oaths of loyalty.

Hitogoroshi

If the Destructoid god desires blood who are we to deny it.

mix

Someone dying from the helm is going to happen....and it's going to be amazing.

falinter

Whos for sacrificing virgins to the helmet? Anyone?

braulio09

Love hurts, but sometimes it's a good hurt. :)

Dyson

xBBx

I shall call upon the challenge of putting on the helmet of death when we meet at E3! Hopefully I make it out in one piece =/

deiga-the-semivaliant

That's definately how I want to go.

"FINALLY I HAVE THE HELMET ON. I CAN NOW DIE IN PEACE"

*cuts neck with edge of the helmet.*

randombullseye

I wish I had a robot face.

Cheeburga
