How to remove specific Accessories?

Hey Devs,
so I have a Folder called “OwnedHalos” in the Player. Im currently making a Halo shop with Equip and Unequip functions. When I bought a Halo in the Shop the bought Halo gets cloned into the OwnedHalos Folder. I want a function that when you equip a Halo the Script firstly checks if the Player is currently equipping 1 of the Halos in the owned Halos Folder. For example you have 2 bought Halos (red halo and blue halo). You are equipping the Red Halo and after that you somehow want to equip the Blue Halo. You click the Blue Halo Button and Equip it. Now you have 2 Halos on you players character. The Script should’ve checked here if the Player equipped 1 of the Halos in the Folder (there are multiple Halos, not only this 2).
So my question:
Is there a way to make a Script which checks if the Player has currently equipped 1 accessory which is also stored in a Folder? If yes, the accessory should get destroyed and after that the new one should be equipped. Here is my current Code for the Script which equips the Halo (works fine)

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local EquipEvent = ReplicatedStorage.HaloEvents.EquipHalo
local Halo = ReplicatedStorage.HaloEvents.Halos

EquipEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local Folder = player:WaitForChild("OwnedHalos")
	local character = player.Character
	local humanoid = character.Humanoid
	local HaloName = player:WaitForChild("HaloStuff").HaloName.Value
	local clone = Folder[HaloName]:Clone()
	humanoid:AddAccessory(clone)
end)

The HaloStuff.HaloName function just gets the Name of the current clicked Halo Button (complicated).
Here is the Code I tried to add in the Script (same script just with the not working function):

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local EquipEvent = ReplicatedStorage.HaloEvents.EquipHalo
local Halo = ReplicatedStorage.HaloEvents.Halos

EquipEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local Folder = player:WaitForChild("OwnedHalos")
	local character = player.Character
	local humanoid = character.Humanoid
	local HaloName = player:WaitForChild("HaloStuff").HaloName.Value
	local clone = Folder[HaloName]:Clone()
	for _, halo in pairs(player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):GetAccessories()) do 
		if halo:IsA("Accessory") and halo.Name ~= game.ReplicatedStorage.HaloEvents.Halos:FindFirstChild(halo.Name) then
			halo:Destroy() 
		end
	end
	wait(0.5)
	humanoid:AddAccessory(clone)
end)

this script work too BUT it destroys EVERY SINGLE accessory the player has equipped right now.
Any help would be appreciated!

I have an Idea: I’m gonna add a StringValue called Halo in the Halos and then in the Script I add a check function if the Accessory has this StringValue if yes it gets destroyed :smiley:

for _, halo in pairs(player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):GetAccessories()) do 
        if halo:IsA("Accessory") then
            if halo.Handle:FindFirstChild("Halo") then 
                halo:Destroy() 
            end
        end
    end

this works :slight_smile:
