3D printed helmets. Interesting but a lot lighter I imagine.

I don't think I know what the old ones looked like to be honest.

I'm a huge fan of the Rennaissance love the art, warfare, clothing ect... so as long as they keep their ceremonial uniforms, I'm happy.

I wonder what will become of the iron helmets? I'd like to own one.

What a shame, that is not the real thing, but a Tofu-Steak!

At the Show Of Shows (SOS) about 10 years ago, a dealer had a full Swiss Guard Uniform for sale. I can't imagine where he received it, as they're not supposed to be sold. This was the only time I ever saw a helmet offered for sale.
