HJC announces a new helmet to the Star Wars line-up, the IS-5 Luke Skywalker X-Wing.

The classic character is captured through great attention to detail, right down to the marks of distress and amber sunshield to create remarkable character resemblance. The Luke Skywalker graphic will appear on HJC’s IS-5 helmet in North America (DOT approved) and FG-70’s in Europe (ECE approved). Both are retro-style, open face helmets, with drop down sunshields.

This functional helmet will appeal to both motorcyclists and Star Wars collectors. As a classic, the IS-5 Luke Skywalker X-Wing helmet will be a part of Star Wars’ 40 th Anniversary celebration, equipped with special celebration tags.

Ten of these brilliant helmets will be signed by Mark Hamill himself, and sold on Omaze.com/StarWars to benefit UNICEF and Starlight Children’s Foundation, on behalf of Star Wars: Force for Change.

The official, standard product release date and price will be announced in the coming weeks.
