Hail and well met, warriors of the Archive!

One of my New Years resolutions is to get the lovely armor that I never wear into the hands of eager fighters who will fully appreciate and enjoy it.

So, I am having a New Years armor sale for just that purpose:

Here is the link: http://mustang-solutions.com/ArmorSale.html

And here are some teaser images of some of the goods for sale:

Items include Ice Falcon stainless legs, West Coast aircraft aluminum demi-gauntlets, Red Falcon stainless arms, and more!

I'll keep this Armor Sale here on the Archive for about a week (with a little shameless bumpage to keep it current), and then whatever, if anything, has not been spoken for, will be off to market at eBay!

Cheers,

Dietrich

PS Seems I have a little more surplus than I realized...here are some bonus links to
1) Beautiful handmade Nine Men's Morris board with silver thread design
2) Medieval Hunting Horn with leather strap

Yes, I'm marking the items as they sell on the website with a big gold "SOLD" sign. So if you don't see that sign, it is still yours for the taking!

Which piece(s) of armor caught your eye? :D

At the risk of sinking my own sale, Bran, let me just give you a caveat on the legs; yes, they are gorgeous, yes they are incredibly protective, BUT, they are very much 15th century.

I'm not sure what period you are going for, but if you are earlier period, these may not be a good match for you.

The arms, on the other hand, are a lot more flexible in period, and may be just what you need.

Just want to be sure you don't lay down a lot of money on armor you'll need to replace later to make your kit match.

Update: Fishbat and gauntlets are gone, legs are pending.

However, the Red Falcon arms, buckler and bracers are still available.
