Mesabi Posted July 1, 2016 I've been looking for a Lego Gas Mask so I can create a minifig based off my profile pic. The best I can find is at http://modernbrickwa....com/gas-masks/ but I'm not sure how they attach to Minifigs, (Like if I need a custom helmet as well) or if they are of good quality. Does anyone have any experiences with Gas Masks from MBW or know of another seller of Minifig Gas Masks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmperZand Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) The gas masks you have linked to are by SI-DAN. I don't have any of their gas masks or anyone else's (I'm mostly into medieval, fantasy and super hero minifigures), but I do have other SI-DAN parts (for example, quite a few non-LEGO parts in this picture are by SI-DAN: http://www.brickshel...ymios_court.jpg). The SI-DAN parts are manufactured to a very high standard, comparable to LEGO. In terms of design, they tend to be less chunky than LEGO (such as the thin shaft of the parasol in the picture I already linked to). They also aren't always a good fit with LEGO minifigures (such as the jinbaori in the picture that required some work on the neckline to make it fit), but mostly they're fine. Judging by pictures of the SI-DAN gas masks on LEGO minifigure heads at sites such as FireStar Toys (e.g. http://www.firestart...reen-Army-.html ), they fit OK. It looks like they slide onto the head and are neither neck pieces nor dependent on a helmet. Hope that helps. Edited July 1, 2016 by AmperZand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robianco Posted July 1, 2016 For a WWII gas mask look at BrickForge's Rigged range. There's a German Flametrooper set which has a fantastic mask although it's thicker than the SiDan range of masks. I'll post a link when I get home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OriolesFan957 Posted July 5, 2016 Mega Bloks has a few gas masks, I dont know if they would work on lego Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkdragon Posted July 5, 2016 I think that's the same brand I used. It's got a ring on the back that clips it to the minifig head piece. The detail and fit is nice, but it feels a bit fragile. I have 3 of them and have never had any breaks though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robianco Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) I've had these set up on my SAS figures for a white and never had a problem with them. I think they're SiDan too. Here's a pic of the Rigged WWII mask: http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/images/g/ErYAAOSwPc9WzWhJ/s-l225.jpg Edited July 6, 2016 by Robianco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmperZand Posted July 6, 2016 I've had these set up on my SAS figures... Cool minifigures. Apologies for the OT post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pemil_99 Posted July 23, 2016 Minifigcat also have gasmasks. These ones is good for ww2: https://www.minifigcat.com/shop/home.php?cat=474 Unfortunately I don't have any of them myself but from what I've heard they work fine. On them you put on the canister so it points forward as they did on the early ones instead of to the side as they do nowadays and as sidans does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't realise they did any others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
