Want a full size Gold plated knight?

[beaverretriever]

I'd throw it on the Las Vegas Craigslist. A real Golden Knight. The Vegas Golden Knights fans would lose their shit over this.

 

[HNL2LHC]

I’d put this on my dock, I was too late. My wife wouldn’t care but she would probably say I’m an idiot.

You are not doing it right if the wife does not think you’re an idiot.

I'll be a week easy..pass to next.
Thx for the 1st node

So my co worker in Phoenix in a midevil freak...lives it! He does the mock fights and all..thought he would be all over this.

He completely was...no thanks, costume jewelry suit...never ...

I think its auesome!! Guess a hardcore midevil player thinks differently..

Seriously...the top of parker or elsewhere place would be cool!!

So cool your offering this!

 

[coolchange]

If you can load it I’d still like to have it.

Not loading anything
My involvement is opening and pointing

Used to be a guy in Burbank that made suits of armor for studios. Had one of the only Yoder power hamers on the west coast. That looks too ornate to be his style, but who knows what he made over his career.

What’s the approximate weight

 

[arch stanton]

To keep it on the mountain plastic bags inside armor then fill with concrete should be able to pass solid steel bar through body and into rock take a real effort to remove

 

[coolchange]

Just to clarify. It’s not real gold. It’s acrilic or fiberglass or something similar. I can’t lift it but two guys could get it in a truck

 

[Deckin Around]

That’s why I wanted to put it on a mountain somewhere. See how the Internet lore grew but if you did that you know someone’s gonna come along with an AR 15 and just saw it in half.

Not after I fill it with cement and #6 rebar down through the feet & drilled & epoxied into a boulder or footing.

A skeleton in an old discarded boat became the "johnson valley yacht club" filled with pirates and "treasure". It has grown over the years but is regularly cleaned up. The kids like to bring/take treasure. It's just somewhere to go in the middle of nowhere.
The knight would become another secret riding destination far off the normal high traffic trails.

Do you think it will hold up outside in the heat/cold?
I can't pick it up until Tuesday is my only issue.
A week earlier and I would have brought it to KOH and figured out how to mount it standing on the top of my jeep.

So it looks like it’s deckin’s knight now. If he defaults I’ll bring it back up. Seems like he found a good home.

When you go to place it let me know we'll bring our Jeep out and cruise along to help out.

Once a King, always a King. But once a Knight is enough!​

 

[jetboatperformance]

does one wear underwear when in that suit of armor ? asking for a friend

 

[Bigbore500r]

 

[DRYHEAT]

I think this would’ve been a perfect mascot standing on the corner representing RDP Realty. Or donated to the Havasu high school fighting Knights

If he defaults. We would love to have it and put it on some kind of display for the township of Chloride. Not sure where yet, but but we have a verity of locations that would be appreciated by tourists

 

[Orange Juice]

So I have to get rid of this thing. A minor thought over New Year’s for a desert trip was to take it out and plant it on top of a Butte 40 miles north of somewhere. Kind of make a secret destination. Watch it grow on the Interwebs.
But it didn’t happen. I don’t really want to cut it up.
Would make a cool statue on somebody’s compound. Or maybe a man cave if you roll that large. Located in La Cañada

Fill it with sand ballast, and dump it in 25 feet of water, so the head floats upright.

 

[Gelcoater]

r donated to the Havasu high school fighting Knights

That’s a great idea

 

[Riverbound]

I can asked a driver to pick it up Monday if nobody comes through.

Let me know.

 

[The Capt]

My vote is desert destination . Gold fish pond, salad bar, the cabin , the bunker bar and the Golden Knight.

 

[liv4riv]

I will pick it up today if you need it out of storage fast

 

[DLC]

I was just reminded today ….
That I’m an IDIOT !

Thanks Hun !

 

[mjc]

Did somebody ever take this?

 

[H20 Toie]

How the hell did I miss this Dammit

 

[Kachina26]

How the hell did I miss this Dammit

Must have been on a Milwaukee bender.

 

[lbhsbz]

Needs to be set up as the rider on the stand up jet ski up in the air on the pole between Aha Quin and Blythe near Margaritaville Pl or whateverthefuck they call that dirt road....that would be awesome

Have you set a date to take it out to the desert yet? I'm sure there are a few of us that will be glad to go along and help

No date yet to plant the “Golden Gladiator.” If you want to rally some troops for the first weekend in May we’ll be back out but there is manual labor my back can’t handle some of currently.
The Gladiator has been standing at our property since shortly after I picked it up. I can’t explain how much everyone’s dogs HATE that thing when they see it. 10+ dogs and none of them have been brave enough to get close. He got moved to the backyard to stop the barking
We are out here now and have determined it will be easiest to install in one of our best chosen spots via helicopter along with a pallet of materials. That would have to wait 10 months until the next KOH when the assets are on site. Otherwise it will require at least 6 guys to take a little walk/short hike with him and a bunch of 50lb bags of cement and water. If not going by air, he’ll need to be strapped to the top of my jeep or canam, a truck wouldn’t make it up there. It will be somewhere you can’t see from a vehicle but is accessible by a foot trail after parking. If you know where to look or it’s reflecting, it could probably be seen from the valley below.
