I managed to wheedle a photo permit for the Museum fuer Kunst und Gewerbe antiquities collection. Admittedly, it's mostly a strictly art collection, but there's some stuff that might interest you here. I can share:
photos of a 4th century Italiote muscled cuirass
a Siceliote helmet (5 cent BC) shaped like a pointy felt hat
2 pottery figurines of armoured men from Canosa, 3rd cent BC
a 6th century BC red-figure vase showing two hoplites
a 7th century BC Corinthian flask showing hoplites
three Byzantine (6/7th century AD) applique pieces for tunics
well, and a pretty explicit depiction of homosexual anal sex on an Etruscan grave sculpture.
If anyone is interested, drop me a line and I'll mail you the pictures.
