thanks Pynedor!
...anyone seen this 'ancient' movie before?

[cowabounga]

Impressive! You had them ready waiting for their badges? Or you really work fast?
Oh! And, what's that weapon? some kind of Bengal star?

[playmofire]

Excellent work as always, cheng.   

[cheng]

thanks Gordon!

and Arnaud, I dont know what a 'Bengal Star' is but its supposed to be used like those 'Bolas' thrown by those (Argentinian?) cowboys....could be just for movies...never seen any relics or records about them

[Rhalius]

they sure look like a fearsome bunch.  I love what you did with their weaponry, especially the spears.

I think he means the weapon the guy has who is next to the one with the bola-looking chain weapon. It looks like a spiky fan or something.

oh thanks Pynedor!
...errr that fan thingy is again another for movies only...it is thrown and swung by a chain and it lops off heads

Exactly! I saw this weapon in a James Bond movie.  Can't tell which, though it was with Sean Connery or Roger Moore. We called it a Bengal star when we were kids, but when I google Bengal star, I only find restaurants and fireworks!     
Best,
A.

I vaguely remember....was it wielded by a huge baldheaded Asian?
