Appearance
The Armor Helmet Replica is a large, bulky helmet originally worn as actual armor in Octo Valley in Splatoon. It consists of the triangular earpieces from the Hero Headset Replica and the enormous helmet worn with them, similar to a bicycle helmet, but very long and pointed in the back. The back of the helmet and fronts of the earpieces have glowing lights on them that change color to match the wearer's ink, and a black strap is buckled at the chin. The lights are always pulsing slightly, giving the impression of bioluminescence. This is fitting considering that Agent 3's equipment was inspired by firefly squid.

Abilities
The Armor Helmet Replica comes with Tenacity as the primary ability, which, being exclusive to the main slot of Headgear, prevents the wearer from also having Comeback, Last-Ditch Effort, or Opening Gambit. As a 3-star item, the Armor Helmet Replica comes with three additional slots for secondary abilities. Since it is made by the Cuttlegear gear brand, it has equal chances to roll any secondary ability.

Trivia
- The original Armor Helmet used in Octo Valley would protect the player from being splatted by enemies, but as a replica, this offers no such protection. The same applies to the Null Visor Replica in Splatoon 2.
- Due to it originally being unlocked by other means in Splatoon, The Armor Helmet Replica is not made by amiibo, but Cuttlegear, despite being unlocked from the Marie amiibo in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3. This is shared with the rest of the gear rewarded with the Squid Sisters amiibo.
