Off Topic Discussion Megathread

Picked up some extra weapon sets as part of a Black Friday order from Gundam Pros. Mainly I wanted the missile pods for a 30 Minute Missions figure, but the sets came with katanas too. So I figured, hey, swords are great, why not.

Except I misread the item description a little. I thought each set was one pod, one sword, and one scabbard. Turns out, each set was TWO pods, swords, and scabbards. So, even MORE extra weapons, cool.

Then while slapping it all together, I happened to look up at a High-grade Sengoku Astray Gundam on my shelf. It has four arms. And I already lost one of the swords it came with. Now it can have four matching swords.

Then I poked through some of my extra parts bins for ways to mount the scabbards on it (being based on an older kit, the Sengoku Astray doesn't have a lot of hard points) and cobbled together some articulated wings. It can even reach the swords while sheathed, with all four arms.

And now, I'm thinking this thing needs some paint. Probably won't get a chance to even try until next week, my in-laws are coming in tomorrow and my mother-in-law hates fun and hobbies. Gives me some time to plan it out in my head, anyway. Wonder if I can turn it into Ravana.
