in the now-infamous Monty Python Holy Grail done in minifigs, one of the figures

does this visor exist? and if so, in what sets?

it SEEMS that all the parts used in this movie are true Lego, though some have
been altered- but this particular helmet fits too well and works with the
existing visor-holes (and hads a plume-hole), which makes me think it is real.


Unfortunately, it's not a real LEGO minifig helmet, although I wish it was.  The
only other piece, besides the helmet, that is not made by LEGO is the flanged
mace that someone konks someone else on the head with.  (During the part when a
guy has a yellow ladle in one hand and is playing the knights' helmets like a
xylophone, in the other hand he has a dark gray mace that's not an actual LEGO
piece.)

(...) Actually both of those pieces were produced by Lego but never released - the helmet visor had functionality issues, it tends to pop off the helmet every couple of seconds. I don't know what the issue with the maces was, they seem to work fine. (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.castle)
