Golden armor ?

Post by Denix »

Hi there,

Does anyone of you know if it exists a golden armor ?

I have some crown helmet in gold, two handed sword (from Orient expedition), oval shield (from Orient expedition too) and I would to know if there is a gold armor too.

And if so, in what set ?

Thanks for your help,
Denix with an online LEGO castle game in preparation for the next year ...

As far as I know there is NO golden armor in any Lego set ever released. As for the Orient expedition I heard that Lego was scrapping that

You could get some Gold spray paint though :wink:

I'd like to see a Lego set with ANY armour in it.

Actually I'd prefer not to have chrome armour. It starts flaking off once it rubs together with other parts. I like the good old gray armour....

Hum, i wouldnt mind gold armor but not that lame breastplate they did for silver. i want the full platemail : ) and is it me or does the gold sword not seem as shiny as the silver one?

while we're on the topic of armor i'd like to mention the griffindor knight. I really have gotten fond of that light grey armor/helmet. It looks especially good with a red cloak and silver sword.

Gold is yellowish which is not as shiney (like reflecting light) as white metal like silver or platinum. But it should be Golden ninja style as they are in the Orient. Or they could make a new kind of armor.
