Select the helmet and go to Object/change parent. In the popup window select the figure's head (ensure that you do not mistakenly select the clothing). Click the "OK" and the helmet should now stay with the figure.

PhilC's method works for me. Maybe this will work, instead. Select the helmet. Go to the Object menu and select Properties. Click the Set Parent button and choose the figure's head from the popup window. Click OK. Now try moving the head.

You can also change parenting in the Hierarchy Editor, try it there.

You can find it on free stuff ?? Searched "allied" nothing found. Searched "helmet", many found but not that one. Searched "bigkabuto" nothing found.

I didn't make the helmet, but just download this one..search helmet Helmet for G.I.Joe by Rexxzilla

Found it; it was posted by jerr3d. It isn't the model itself. I can parent it to the head, and it moves along fine.
