Now I want to say something about it.
I consider this character to be either a fantasy - or, if it is really intended as an ancient gladiator, one of the worst characters in this genre I've come across.
I don't want to discuss the question of equipment or the helmet (which you could!), but the figure itself:
It is sculpted like characters from the "Spartacus" series, they seem to have been role models...:
It's a pity, because there is a real wealth of ancient (i.e. contemporary) images of various gladiators ...:
What do we see?
No "sixpack", no defined muscles, no model athletes!
Why not:
It was simply not possible with the nutritional possibilities of antiquity to produce such a bodybuilder figure as the figure has.
And by the way: A gladiator who trained himself in such a body must have been pretty stupid.
Since the gladiator - absolutely understandably - placed more emphasis on staying alive as long as possible, he deliberately fed himself a layer of fat that protected his important organs!
Not every injury was immediately life-threatening - instead, there were mostly "flesh wounds", the fat layer was injured, not the organ underneath!
The gladiator - despite this rather massive body - was then trained for stamina and mobility.
As a result, we have to think of ancient gladiators something like this ...:
And the figure is miles away from these role models - unfortunately!
Therefore:
Fantasy or just: completely wrong!
That you can do it far better - and above all correctly! - can do, show these figures ...:
They should know that also at "Pegaso", because this gladiator figure of them is how an ancient gladiator should be ...:
Cheers
