  <p>I've had the same problem with two of my new LEGO sets. However, I've managed to fix my Stormtrooper helmet by taking a small piece of a rubber band about 2 centimeters long and put it between the helmet and the head. The rubber slows the spinning and it doesn't fall off as easily.</p>

Answers.Body: <p>Assuming that they came together as a set, some Lego helmets don't fit tight in order to make it "easier" to put the helmet on, and if not, might not fit correctly at all.  However, there could be an issue with the pieces itself.  Get a cotton swab and some water, DO NOT USE ALCOHOL, as it will eat at the paint, and clean out the contacts. </p>

  The best and most effective technique I've come across is to use a bit of nail varnish on the inner anti-stud of the helmet piece, as [Tonk explained](https://tonkstoysblog.wordpress.com/2018/05/09/lego-classic-space-minifigures-how-to-fix-loose-helmets/) on his blog [TonksToysBlog](https://tonkstoysblog.wordpress.com/). Just be sure to apply a very tiny amount and give it plenty of time to dry.
  
  Also, if it matters to you, the helmet you have pictured *does not* go to the figure pictured. The figure is [Jay Legacy](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=njo489&name=Jay%20(Legacy)&category=%5BNinjago%5D%5BLegacy%5D#T=S&O=%7B%22iconly%22:0%7D) from 2019. The helmet, on the other hand, is [98133pb02](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=98133pb02&idColor=7#T=C&C=7) from 2012-2016.
