Bacchus screen used costume

Directly from New Zealand has arrived this Bacchus costume worn by the evil god Bacchus, played by Anthony Ray Parker, who turns innocent girls into bloody Bacchaes in the episode “Girls just wanna have fun” from season 2. This episode was awesome and was one of the first appearances of any Greek god during the tv series.

 

The costume is in very good condition. Obviously the main piece is the leather vest, this piece is made of heavy black leather with foam shoulder pieces inside to enhance the shoulders. It has an intricate gold chain with different style of metal beads, faux amber beads and other style of beads. The vest has a velcro piece in each shoulder to attach the silver cape seen in the episode. It has leather laces in each front and back sides to fit the actor figure.

This costume is missing the cape, black gauntlets and the gold jewelry seen on screen.


The pants is the same style of the ones worn by Ares played by Kevin Smith or Autolycus played by Bruce Campbell. Boots are a generic style used by many characters during the series.

Screenused Hercules Hero vest & undershirt

Latest acquisition here, this is a screenused vest and undershirt worn by Hercules played by Kevin Sorbo in the episode “Tramps & Thieves” from season 6. The vest is easily screen matched because it has a “L” cut in the right side of the front done by Luscious Deluxe with her sword. I have sewn by hand the L cut to avoid damage. The vest is very detailed and the under shirt is a simple piece but looks awesome together. Both are in mint condition.

Screen used generic Sword

Recently arrived this screen used generic style sword used in the production of XWP and HTLJ tv series.

Particularly, this sword reminds me a bit the style of Joxer sword and I have the intuition that this sword belongs to the earlier seasons of the tv series, but I didn´t find the origin yet. I have compared this sword with my Cleopatra Egyptian sword and the blade it is quite similar.

The guard and pommel are made of light resin and the blade is made of closed cell foam well preserved. The handle has real leather strip around, previously I thought was part of the resin cast, but it is not. has It is in very good condition although it has some wear in the painting and scratches and signs of wear in the blade. However, it is a gorgeous piece to add to my collection because is quite different to mostly all my other prop swords.


I am still trying to find where this sword appeared? If you have any idea you can comment this entry or contact privately.
