Anyone trying to remove the helmet from their TFA version to get an empty helmet please heed this advice.
Did you try the boil and pop method? I didn't do mine right. I forgot to boil it and tried to pry it out and ended up cracking it in several spots. Under the eyes, on one side and up the back. It's on there good.
I would first peel off all the brown rubber parts carefully. They will peel off especially if you boil first. Then try several attempts at boil and pop. There are tracks inside the head where tabs from the helmet run through. These are glued together so a pull straight up will get it off if you can loosen the glue. I would grab it from the sides and back and wiggle it back and forth to loosen the bond.
Hopefully you'll have better luck than me.
