Building a Complete Head?
If you're combining a head base with an electronics kit to build a complete protogen head, a Studio build is worth considering first. Studio heads ship fully assembled and tested, and come with a 90-day warranty — often at a similar or lower total cost than sourcing and assembling the parts yourself.
The workshop is here for experienced builders, replacement parts, and custom projects. If you're new to protogen builds or want a ready-to-wear result, start with Studio →
🛡️ 90-Day Warranty Included
Covered for 90 days against manufacturing defects under normal use — see the warranty policy for details. Extend to 9 or 15 months total with the Product Protection Plan.
Made to order in Portland, Oregon. Up to 3 weeks build time + shipping.

Everything works great, does what I expect it to. Easy programming, great customizability

Product arrived great and is in good condition.u unfortunately cut it wrong and messed it up. So I probably wont work on the proof anymore. But the product itself is amazing and would recomend for any proto build.
Everything was perfect! There were a few issues with some of the side items shipping, but they were resolved quickly! The base unit is of very high quality and a very good deal!! Was definitely a great and recommendable purchase!!
It's looks and feels amazing breathable lightweight and super easy to see out of and the sound detection works beautifully
Absolutely fantastic perfect mix of squish and durability
It's as advertised and they have great communication on customization for colors and expressions for the face to choose from. They take care of the hole build and program, and it works right from when you power it
Amazing Protogen mask! And for a great price as well. The seller was very friendly, and I’m really glad that masks like these can be more accessible now.
Print was messy but nothing that can't be fixed with a bit of sand paper. I already needed to sand it to paint it so it's no big deal. Other than that, it's works and I love it! <3
Amazing quality and fantastic customer service
