Think of the most iconic movie armaments of all time: Luke Skywalker's legendary lightsabre, Batman's trusty Batarang, Captain Kirk's state-of-the-art Type II Hand-Phaser, Ellen Ripley's fearsome Pulse Rifle/Flamethrower hybrid... the list keeps going on and on. But there's one weapon that often gets unfairly overlooked - at least, in comparison to its other Python-powered brethren. Remember the old days before the overwhelming tide of Political Correctness? It was an era when comedy was truly a form of high art. The Monty Python crew, featuring John Cleese, Eric Idle, Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam, and the late but irrepressibly hilarious Graham Chapman, were comedic masters. Their work has endured across generations, remaining just as laugh-out-loud funny today as it was back then. Two of their greatest achievements - alongside the aforementioned masterpieces - are Life of Brian, an endearing retelling of Jesus' story through the eyes of Brian of Nazareth, and Monty Python & The Holy Grail, a wickedly satirical reimagining of King Arthur's tale. We're talking, of course, about the show-stopping armament that makes your jaw drop. Not the mighty Black Knight's sword or the biting jabs from the Knights Who Say "NeeeeeH!", but the majestic, sacrosanct Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch - the cherished relic wielded by Brother Maynard to vanquish the terror of Killer Bunny of the Cave of Ceyr Banogh. And now you can carry this hallowed treasure in your very own hands! After ages of itching to bring this baby to life, I've finally figured out how to design it. Let's just say it was no walk in the park and the construction process wasn't exactly a cakewalk... but hey, every bit of perseverance paid off! Now, get hold of those small (3mm) fake gemstones you can stick onto the top-half roundels and on the Holy Pin - all available super cheap from craft suppliers. Alternatively, whip up your own with resin etc., just don't say I didn't warn you! And voila, wield the mighty Hand Grenade for all to see! Not in the mood for do-it-yourself projects?
