Game of Thrones licenced LARP weapons.

Having gone to GenCon, I had the opportunity to put hands on the GoT larp weaponry. Short version, I wouldn't pass them in our game.

Ice, which is the least expensive latex 2-hander I've ever seen offered, has the same flaw all of the products did, you can very easily feel the core from the flat of the blade. The padding there is very thin. I was very disappointed as it is the first latex 2-hander I've seen under $100. :(

Longclaw is better, but still I wouldn't pass it due to insufficient padding on the flat of the blade. It's a shame too, because both of these weapons are very nice looking for the price.
 
Granted, I trust your thoughts, but I have yet to handle any production line latex weapon and NOT be able to feel the core along the flat.
 
Yes, but this was... bad. I don't mean you could press hard and feel the core, but that you could use fingertip pressure and feel it. Just not enough foam there.
