I would strongly advise against spending this much for an un-prepped 3D printed helmet. I would be cautious buying one in this condition anyway, as you don't know how good the print quality is , especially considering the vendor only has one photo posted. If you are considering paying the offered price for this helmet, I would suggest looking at the vendors in our trading boards, or talking to your local clanmates. One of them may be able to help print you a TV Show Mando helmet for less.

Depending on where you get the file from and what kind of software your clanmates have, you should be able to scale STL files to a size that works for you. My recommendation is to try on some clanmates' helmets and see which one fits best, you can take the measurements from there.
