Hello xenites! Today I bring you an interesting post with a costume probably never seen in photos after the show ended. This is the Caesar screenused costume worn by Karl Urban in the episode "When fates collide" from season 6. I adquired this wardrobe from an ebay auction from a company that said that this costume came to them from the trading card company that made the card sets for this show, they were sent these direct from the shows to cut up and use for trading cards, but these never got cut up and now is one important piece of my collection.

Julius Caesar on Xena, episode "When Fates Collide" from season 6.
Caesar was one of the most popular male character from the show as Ares played by Kevin Smith. I've always watched the Caesar golden resin armour from Jason owner of
MoviePropKing webpage and I never believed that I can ever have an amazing piece as that one, so I must say I feel really lucky of having this amazing costume worn by the popular actor, Karl Urban.
The lion chest armour made of heavy metal, very detailed.
It is a eight pieces costume that includes: (1) lion chest armour, (2) leather heavy belt, (3) burgundy/brown leather shirt, (4) burgundy pants, (5) red skirt, (6) leather skirt, (7)leather sandals and (8) leather sheath attached to the belt.
However, there a few items missing in the costume, the metal cuffs, purple leather cape (probably cut off for making the caesar tradding cards), and the knee wraps. Also, the laurel crown or the imperial ring, if anyone have any information of where they can be those items, is welcome.
