Olvir (Dominic Guard) avoids
the Vanir guards by ducking into a store room where he finds
a rack of radiation armor parts. He decides to disguise himself
as a guard using the armor. Bor (Peter Benson) can be seen in
several scenes with the Doctor and Kari (Liza Goddard) using
a like assemblage of parts as armor for his left arm.
This arm assembly is one of
the many pieces of armor hanging from the rack in the store room.
It can be seen dangling from the wire tree in several shots.
Made of fiberglass, painted with a undercoat of rust, a topcoat
of gold and lashed together with heavy lacing. The lower arm
piece is the underside of the protective set with the matching
top half getting most of the screen time.
