Electronic music icons and Christmas. They are like a match made in heaven. There’s just one problem though; a set of two does not come cheap, going at $25 and surely, you are not going to hang only a pair, are you? And so, it is going to cost you like a lot if you plan to decorate your lovely fir with many of these. Of course, you can choose not to, but what else can go with the pair and also, how else can you make the Christmas tree worthy of a Daft Punk theme?

Daft Punk Thomas Helmet
well, what do you know? the French synth-pop duo is back with a new album called Random Access Memories and its album cover art seems to serve as a reminder of the duo’s totally rad helmets (you know, the Lost In Space era kind of sci-fi-ish head gear?). they are practically icons of the French duo and we would imagine its hard for any Daft Punk fans not wanting to have one. in fact, if you have like 500 bucks to drop, you could actually have one – albeit an unofficial item, but it is no less awesome. its creator, Mexico-based Etsy seller (Maz Power Props), Mauricio Santoro made one of these for halloween and decided to share this love with whoever have the cash to spare.
