Owner's Description
Boris! And the first appearance of the famous maille bikini. Although in truth this one is more scales than rings. I'm going to go out on a limb here and just be honest. I'm just not a big Boris fan. I don't know, it just never clicked with me as a viewer. Like, why do the undead hordes have blood? Right? There's blood spraying from the neck of the dead-guy Conan just hit, as well as blood on both Conan & Sonja's blades. I can attest to it not being old blood, blood turns steel black really fast. Conan's whipping about a single edged blade, but the swing is all wrong for where his arm & his victim are located, and he's got a shield (an improvement really) but his hand extends beyond the edge of the shield - you know what that's called? Not having a hand to wipe with next week. Just a dumb way to expose yourself. I don't know what the hell is going on with Sonja's pose - but if both feet are pointing forward and her knees are both bent in that weird twisty position, she's going down hard. One good yank from axe boy and her top-heavy a$$ is in the dirt and probably dead. Really the two of them look incompetent, where they are supposed to be the badassess of all barbarian time.
Overall - you want a dollar based on this image? How about no.
