Prisoner Builds Final Fantasy Arsenal Out Of Matchsticks

An inmate in a Welsh prison built Final Fantasy weapons out of matchsticks.

The guards of a prison located in Monmouthshire, Wales were surprised to find an impressive arsenal of reproduction knives that a prisoner had assembled entirely out of matchsticks and glue. The prisoner under consideration, though, moldiness have a softening spot for JRPGs, as some of his creations are clearly from Final Illusion.

Fans of the series testament immediately recognise Defile's Buster Steel from Net Fantasise VII, as well as a gunblade, the favored arm of Squall from Final Fantasy VIII. I don't quite recognize the design of the rest of the weapons, but few appear to be inspired away the anime series Bleach.

Despite looking like props a convention attendee would slap together last minute, the replicas were reportable have been sharpened to the point where they could really cause harm, and the prison's Governer, Steve Cross, stated that the weapons were realistic enough that "[They] presented a genuine terror to the safety of staff, visitors and other prisoners."

On that point's no watchword as to if the prisoner constructed the matchstick swords out of boredom, intent to harm fellow inmates or possibly for use in a one thousand adventure to salvage the universe.
