yeah, it's moro, or better yet, a modern representation of a moro armor. i've seen something similar at the Aldevenco tourist shops in Davao. hope that helps..

I agree - modern made armor. Not at all the original stuff. Stay far away.

THESE ITEMS WOULD BE SUITABLE FOR WEARING IN PARADES IF THEY ARE WELL CONSTRUCTED AND DON'T FALL APART BUT NOT VERY COLLECTABLE OR IMPRESSIVE AS A DISPLAY. MANY PLACES IN THE WORLD STILL MAKE REPLICA UNIFORMS AND SUCH FOR CEREMONY AND REINACTMENT GROUPS. THEY STILL MAKE GOOD AUTHENTIC CIVIL WAR AND REVOLUTINARY WAR UNIFORMS HERE IN THE USA FOR REINACTMENT GROUPS.
