Microsoft and Make-A-Wish have teamed up to create a one of a kind piece of Spartan armor.

Get ready to be jealous Halo fans and cosplayers.

A Master Chief helmet covered in 25,000 diamonds has just been sold at auction for a whopping $34,000.

The helmet was created through a unique collaboration between Taiwanese cosplayer Hsu Chia-Hao, who built the helmet, and Australian fashion designer Jenny Manik Mercian, who blinged it out.

To learn more, check out the video below.

All of the proceeds from the helmet will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, which helps sick children by granting them a desired “wish.”

Of course, this fabulous helmet also coincides with the recent release of Halo 5, which was met with critical acclaim, and had the biggest launch of a Halo game yet, as it brought in over $400 million during its first week on the market.

We applaud Microsoft for creating a cool gamer collectible, and also for doing so for a good cause.
