1. 'Paint scratches' is actually a 2nd layer of white paint for a 'battle worn' feel2. It's not molded perfectly symmetrical, and you can take a guess that Master Chief's helmet in-game got dinged in combat (if you're expecting perfection with no scratches, you've clearly never played Halo)3. If the LEDs look mangled, don't be afraid to peel back on the foam interior to push the lights back in place4. There may be some 'glue' excess around the top of the visor, you'll still have the lower half of the top visor half and the entire bottom visor half, since the part that curves several times WILL be blurry, you can see out of the rest of it5. 'iT DoEsN't FiT sO It'S nOt WoRtH iT '. You KNOW you can use other materials to make it FIT, right'? (Duct tape and old packaging foam made perfect sized cheek pads to fit on the helmets interior)6. Saw other comments say that it's not so practical, if you're careful, you can still make lunch while wearing this7. Bonus perk of the helmet, if you take it to any hardware store that has a paint department and have them make a color to match it, you'll have a batch of 'Master Chief Green' at your disposal
