  • Guinea. Pig. Chain. Mail. Yes, really!!

    Actually, it's scale mail, but still. Now your peeg can be ready to joust at a moment's notice! Do you think hamsters would make good squires?

    UPDATE: As of 9:10pm Central USA time, it's up to $18,100. And there's still 2 days left in the auction (proceeds go to a guinea pig rescue organization in Virginia)!!

    Just remembered seeing this a while back, too. Now your pig has the perfect steed (well, as long as his mount doesn't try to eat him)!

                To me the picture looks frighteningly like a guinea pig covered in fishing lures...

                    $18,000 for that? I know its for charity and all but sheesh, aside from the helmet, I could make something like that for like <$30 in under a week.

                    Pity I dont know anyone who has a Guinea Pig to use as a base, as I'd easily and cheaply and quickly be able to make a full suit of chainmail for it.
