The Dark Knight and the Galactic Empire come together in this one incredible helmet, created for a good cause.

Sanctioned by Lucasfilm, the Biker Scout Helmet Project invites prop makers, effects artists and cosplayers from across the globe to design custom Star Wars Scout Trooper helmets, to be auctioned for charity. What you see here is Julian Checkley's Batman-themed "Wayne Industries (Applied Sciences Division) Advanced Pursuit Helmet," which organizers say "blew us away."

You can see why, because it's insanely amazing, both in concept and detail.

Checkley's helmet will be among the 40 pieces displayed and auctioned in July at Star Wars Celebration Europe, with the proceeds going to Star Wars: Force for Change.
