Damage to the skull is multiplied by a x4 modifier unless it is toxic damage, which collision damage is not. So, net result, is 4 points of damage when all is said and done.
He takes 15 points of Damage which is stopped by his DR of 18 (DR 16 from Helmet + DR 2 from skull), and three points of blunt trauma would go through.
