I LOVE collecting cool little dudes. My sister gave me a tiny frog figure sitting in an armchair reading a book and it nourishes me spiritually when I look at it

This actually proves the Mayans went to Mars

Am I reading too much into it or is a 1500 year old figurine in a suit and helmet interesting?

I think they are only wearing a helmet, not armor. Mayan sculptures often have helmets of some sort. Usually more ornate than this so maybe this is a depiction of an actual warrior helmet meant for practical use. https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/maya-warrior-statue-with-serpent-helmet-discovered-at-chichen-itza

I had a tie fighter that had a tiny pilot that went inside, like an inch tall with movable arms and legs, and he had a tiny helmet the size of a matchhead you could remove. It was my favorite toy and I would spend what felt like hours searching through the carpet for his tiny helmet when I would inevitably lose it.

I can now advocate for my Lego/Transformers collections on grounds of RETVRN.

Who says this is about collecting?

It looks cool, buuuuuut the figurine is no longer in its original packaging, so the value plummets drastically. My final offer is about three-fiddy.
