Niedel,

Right you are!

I had to go back and look at my laser disc of Spartacus and yes indeed -- leather armor.

Somehow, in my minds eye, I saw the legionaries at least in segmented armor. Where did I get that idea from?

From this site...

Conte has the rights to make "toy soldiers" for several Kirk Douglas films including Spartacus. Their figures look great, even though they are wearing armor and helmets from a much later period.

So I stand, or in this case, sit at my keyboard corrected. :oops:

Also, I think you are correct in that the show's production designer probably did make extensive use of items already "in stock" at the costume shop, but I am under the impression that the helmets in HBO's Rome were made for this show. Perhaps some one knows for certain or has seen these helmets before in another film.

Points to you for the correction Niedel. Big Grin
