Known for its metalwork, Japanese company Iron Factory added another hot item to its licensed collaborative products. Iron Factory’s Castem metalwork maker has created a commercial replica of Alphonse Elric’s iconic helmet from the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise. The replica helmet weighs in at 11 kilograms altogether (or 24 pounds). Along with that, the helmet is an exact 1/1 scale replica.

Each Fullmetal Alchemist helmet is made in the IRON FACTORY Castem factory (known for their ‘precision manufacturing technology” and 52 years of experience). The metal smiths first created a 3D model of Al’s head. The entire process involves heating stainless steel at 1,700 degrees Celcius (3092 degrees Fahrenheit). In addition to the spectacular details, Al’s blood seal is printed on the exclusive box for the first 50 customers. The replica features detachable eyes and a long hair band coming out the top of his helmet.

Also known as Al, he serves as one of the main characters of the Fullmetal Alchemist series. At the start of the series, he has his entire physical body taken away during a failed Human Transmutation performed by his older brother Edward Elric. As a result of losing his body, Al had his soul alchemically bound to a large steel suit of armor.

Alternately, the story of the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise revolves around Edward and Alphonse Elric. After losing their mother to illness, the two children decide to partake in a forbidden science ritual known as Human Transmutation. As punishment, their bodies are taken from them. This still doesn’t stop the two brothers as they decide to embark on a journey to get their bodies back with the Philosopher’s Stone.

The Alphonse Elric helmet can be purchased for international shipping through Castem’s eBay store page. Currently, the helmet goes for a whopping $1,206.43 USD. It is a made-to-order product and will take approximately three months to ship.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood can be streamed on Netflix and Crunchyroll.
