Overly
Theo yes.... Terry Nix has wonderful attic helmets as well but I can't afford them.
I had mentioned that cuirasses in the $60 to $200 range just don't look right... I was able to find highly accurate examples but the price range jumps to $1000 to $1500.
It's almost as if the makers of steel and brass cuirasses ($60 to $200 range) went out of their way to make them inaccurate.
But the maker of this cheap plastic costume piece looks like he did some research!
Tarbicus, that Augustus Prima piece looks radcially awesome but, too... it's way outside my budget.
