great find Octopus' , thanx!

Yeah cool! Thats a solid rare piece and find, namely to see Sven without his silly wig on the set of CONAN.

Take it easy!

Does anybody recognize the image on Milius' T-shirt, in the second one?

Excellent finds, Octopus, thank you for sharing.

yep!

AMAZING photos. Big thanks!

Good group shot, shows Arnold being closer to 5'10" and Sven being maybe 1-2 inches taller than Arnold, Gerry Lopez's size difference isnt as big as its seen in the movie either. Davidon doesnt look very enormous either, especially with Milius being listed as 5'11" and they are all in boots with heels so.. .

Highly interesting in many ways! Thanks


Gerry looks in excellent shape, excellent sidekick for Arnold for sure. My god, such an arm, is like Lope'z entire broad, lol. I wonder why Arnold's real hair wasn't that long, why didn't he just let it naturally grow? And who is the short guy at left, who looks to all these people like thinking: "bah, I could kick their asses if I really wanted to"

The little old man may be the spanish extra José Galera "El Habichuela". I'm not sure.

Milius compared his relationship with producer Dino de Laurentiis during filming "Conan" with being in the French Foreign Legion... He said that he felt like he was a good German soldier with a bad French boss.

Here I always thought he grew his hair for the part as a type of dedication... Oh, well..

Yeah, me too... And his hair already was pretty long, he only would have need 3 or 4 months, dunno

Yeah simply hair extensions. The longest he had his hair was scene throughout the 70's and that 1980 Olympia which he took a break from CONAN and did that. Last time he had it like that was in 1984's TERMINATOR, then it was burnt off in the film and he gets his sort and spiked hair which has pretty much remained the same ever since.

His real hair, I guess:



What I wonder if also are that real are another couple of things.

Again, this looks like his real hair

Another pic with long hair



Not so long hair this time -(this one must be probably from 1978 or 1979, previous to his training for Mr.Olympia 1980... That is while the movie is totally in pre-production). So one wonders why the guy just couldn't let his own hair grow for the part.

Some more



Subotai's way

In an interview Milius said that after the totally negative critics BIG WEDNESDAY received, he serioulsy thought about joining the French Foreign Legion.





But he didn't.
