Holiday & Christmas Gifting FAQ
Q: I am a grandparent ordering online. How do I know it will fit my grandson?
A: All our wearable helmets are built to standard 1:1 scale with adjustable inner foam pads. They fit boys aged 8 and up as well as full-grown adult men comfortably (head sizes up to 23.6 inches / 60 cm). If your grandson is younger than 8, the Spider-Man flexible mask or Arc Reactor desk decor is a foolproof alternative!
Q: What is your shipping cutoff for Christmas delivery?
A: We stock our most popular items in our domestic US warehouse, which dispatch within 24-48 business hours. We strongly recommend ordering before December 10th to account for nationwide winter carrier delays and guarantee on-time arrival.
Q: How are the items packaged? Is it safe for shipping?
A: Every prop is packaged inside heavy-density foam inserts and reinforced outer collector boxes designed to endure cross-country transit without damage. They arrive pristine and ready to be wrapped.
Q: Are batteries included?
A: For air safety regulations, standard alkaline batteries are not pre-installed. We suggest picking up a pack of 4x AA batteries and 1x AAA battery so your recipient can power up their helmet immediately on Christmas morning!
