    you could always try buying a cheap world globe, cut out the right size hole and spray paint it white. use some foam or bubblewrap to pad it out to wear.

    Buy a cheap beach ball/yoga/exercise ball and paper mache it. Cheap and easy.

    If you're keen enough, you could try sculpt-building your own helmet from scratch from foam or latex. I've seen people do some amazing things costume-wise with foam and/or latex.

    If it doesn't work out you could always try going as the busty waitress that Jon Candy can't stop staring down the top of

    Classic.. bit of question.(while we're on the subject) I watched Spaceballs about 2 months ago. During the merchandising scene, "Spaceballs the lunchbox" appeared to have the back of a g1 Transformers box as the picture on it (the one with Metroplex in city mode)
    I watched again a few times on youtube but i just couldn't be sure. Anyone know? If not it looks damned close.
