Mego Scale Rapiers

[YANOULI]

Aside from the Zorro/Pirate type rapiers, which aren't really the right style for what i need, does anyone make Mego scale renaissance style swept hilt rapiers? Maybe there is something available in your Dollar stores?
Here's what i mean:

It doesn't have to be so ornate, just be a similar shape.

CHeck the clearance aisles for Pirates of the Carribbean figures. Neca made these and they all have some very cool swords and rapiers. Also, the second Narnia film had some figures with really great weapons and gear. I've got a couple and they are well crafted.

Hmmmm....

There are a few swords in the Mononofu series that might work. Check ebay; and check again, 'cos sometimes you get 'em cheap sometimes you pay inflated collector's prices for the Mononofu stuff.

It's the Toledo Salamanca from Highlander.
I'm working on a custom of Fasil but can't find the right style sword.

Thanks Ian. Do you have any more pictures of what you have in mind? I will keep an eye out.

I've only seen katana's in 1/6 scale, in fact i got one for my 12" Ramirez.
Do they do Mego sized swords?

That's pretty much the best one available.
It doesn't have to be exact, just a similar enough shape.

I found some mego-sized katana's at the dollar store in a 2 pack with non-scale ninja figures. I picked up quite a few for Cmonster.



They are 2 for a buck at Ye Olde Dollar store.

What about the Castaway Cargo Hold? There were some rapier's in there. Maybe they could be modified?

I've got a bunch from the first three sets. They did all kinds of different swords, and they're all in Mego scale. Well.... MOST of 'em. The zweihandter is a little small. Most of them can be held in a Mego hand too.

I haven't seen any.
One other thing, it's too fiddly to sculpt such an intricate guard and very fragile.
