Makeshift flail

Post by daggerblood »

Here's a flail I made. In a older thread I believe there was a discussion on having a loose or molded chain. This chain is from a minimate, and is flexible, but molded.

From what I can see, it looks pretty good, but I need to see some bigger pictures before I can add any criticism/comments. So... bigger pictures please! :D

That is an intresting idea. I would also like some bigger, clearer pictures to see it, but from what I can tell, it looks great. Is that a moded lightsaber hilt? What did you use for the chain? Lego chain?

Great job.

It's a section of chain from the ghost rider minimate. The pictures pretty much show off the chain, you can pose the chain if you like. It just looks like a normal chain. I don't think I'll take a bigger picture, but if someone requests it in a pose, I'll take a BIG picture of that for you guys.

That's a really good flail. It's probably how I would make one, if I were to try. By the way, does anyone know how the flails were made for the upcoming Castle Theme?

I really hope there is a flail in and upcoming Castle theme. This one is really good. It has a nice chain, and it is not too long. You could teach Lego company and thing or two.

I like the concept, but not the fact that it is one pieces instead of individual links.

You can't really tell it's one piece...It's still fully flexible and looks just like a chain.

"Ghost Rider Minimate"? Sorry, I've been out of it for a while and am cluesless as to what that is.

I think he's talking about these.

Anyway, I like the flail. It'd be great if this chain was added to one of Blasterman's (Little Armory) flails.

That's a very good looking weapon. Have you made one using a modified Lego chain?
