I have a big head, size large/x-large. This hasn't posed any problems with replica helmet sizes in the past, but I've read that replica FAST helmets run a bit small. That being said, has anybody had any experience with the replicas, particularly those with larger heads? The specific one I'm looking at is this.

I dont know about the Bravo. I have the Emerson, and I had to modify it and take the suspension system out of it.

I gave my nephew that helmet in OD for his birthday. I only tried it on once and it was a tight fit for me, and all my hats are large or med/large. I also only paid $60 for it at Kalamazoo Airsoft, but I’ve only seen them there in black and OD. I just ordered myself an Emerson the other day; I hope it is a little larger than the Bravo.

I just got a dragonred fast helmet and it is very well made and really adjustable. I think it fits 56-62cm heads. I'd measure your head and do some research.

I got the premium carbon version. It's really solid, i'll give you the pro's and cons from my standpoint. I have a 61cm head and it has to be adjusted all the way to fit.
Pro's: Really solid feeling. Lightweight. Looks really nice. Very adjustable. Padding is really comfortable(I think it's memory foam) but if you don't like it, it is really easy to replace.
Cons: Chinstrap, it's a pro and a con it's really soft and comfortable but it's not really adjustable like everything else, so it may sit weird on your chin (also replaceable) The NVG shround isn't of the best quality but take that one as you please.
All in all I'm very happy that I've purchased it. I'd recommend it to everyone.

I know for sure that the Emerson Replica is a L/XL.

Alright, measured my head, turns out it's about 58-59 cm, so I should be good with the Dragon Red version. I doubt I'll be getting the "premium" version, though, but the economical version looks just fine for what I need.
