From the 1980 science fiction cult classic, starring Sam Jones in the lead role as Flash Gordon, comes this visually impressive costume worn by one of Emperor Mings minions. The costume can be clearly seen during the suitably lavish and extravagant Emperor Ming and Dale Arden wedding ceremony sequences.
Highly distinctive and indicative in colour and style of the whole film, beautifully made with incredible intrinsic detailing to the front and back and fibre glass armour piece decoration to each shoulder line. Exhibits general wear due to production use and age but remains in overall very good condition. The costume still retains its original interior costume name tag detailing 'Cottrel 101', referring to the actor Mike Cottrel. This large costume makes an outstanding display piece which would be the centrepiece of any collection.
