Anyone know anything about these gothic legs? (The ones on the right,,) Are they a reproduction? If so are they based on an other pair? Anyone have any other pix of them..?

I don't know about that particular suit, but the design is very much like the "Siggy" harness, the one on the bottom here:

Which shows that, even if it turns out that the suit is a repro and not an antique, the design still captures the right look.[/url]

Here are two gothic suits from the Bavarian National Museum in Munich. Similar sabatons 
Another one, this time from Nuremburg (made in Landshut)

This forum is worth its weight in gold. Hmm..nice pix indeed, but still not the ones i think..it is specifically the area of the thigh, the flutings that im interested in.
