He also embiggens in a broom closet or something and I don't believe he has a helmet there either. | |

And they only ever shrank one building, which must have been specifically prepared, if only to keep everything in place when shrunk. - I don't remember a scene where Scott changes size without helmet though, that would definitely break the suit rule.. when was that? | |

Like, say, the ant that got embiggened, or the Thomas the Tank Engine toy, or the device that Scott stole from the Avengers and shrank. | |
