The Praetorian armour from Gladiator and Gladiator II




Adam Savage and Tested returned to FBFX to check out the Praetorian armour FBFX built for Gladiator and Gladiator II!


Find out how FBFX manufactured armour for 800 Praetorians for the first Gladiator movie (spoiler: a lot of vacuum forming and sanding was involved), and how the processes compared to the task of building 120 for Gladiator II.


Costume design for Gladiator by Janty Yates, costume design for Gladiator II by Janty Yates and David Crossman.
