real deal this is real metal authentic looking headband very well made. good customer service I did not get the one ordered first and when I emailed they send me another on right away
Excellent buy This item is worth the money. The GE headbands are far better quality than those from Mattel/Hasbro, even if the selection in styles is more limited. These look more 'real', like something someone would actually wear and not just a costume piece.
The metal plate is solid aluminum and held in place with 6 smooth-head rivets. It comes pre-shaped, but aluminum is a soft enough metal that it can be reshaped to fit the head as desired. The symbol is stamped into the it, rather than just a stick-on decal like the other brands, so there's no worry about it rubbing off over time. The plate's fairly large, probably larger than those in the show, but again it seems more 'real' since this is supposed to be a 'forehead protector'. It shows fingerprints somewhat easily, but they wipe off just as cleanly.
The cloth is a polyester/cotton blend, double-layered for durability, and about 34" long overall. Smaller children could wear it like a belt as some did in the show, but for most it's a headband only. There's a strip of cloth on the back of the headband, behind the plate, that protects the forehead from being rubbed raw by the rivets.
Overall it's a great accessory and a must-buy for anyone interested in Naruto costuming or just the show in general.
God I love Naruto Headbands!!!!! When I heard the door bell ring, I knew that the moment had arrived, I would finally get to hold the authentic Naruto Ninja Headband. When I donned my ninja attire, I was finally able to complete my ensemble with the spectacular headband. The quality of this headband is unparalleled and I would recommend it to any true Naruto Fan! -Dirka Dirka Dirka
Rocks I love to wear this when I'm sure I can get away with it. You may have your parents questioning and commenting on it in an annoying way all day but beleave me it is worth it.
A bit expensive This was fun for his Halloween costume but it slips of his head a bit so he never wears it now that Halloween is over. Good for dress up but not worth the cost, good quality though.
