    I made the pair of these swords for my Deluxe Metalhawk and Prime Master Vector Prime Metalhawk Decoy Suit. Basically the same sword in different scales. Comes as a 2-pack. The smaller one has a 3mm hole in the handle so you can peg it onto his pack for storage as well as hold it in his hand.

    I have the Hawk Saber from Renderform on my BotCon Metalhawk, but it was too big and bulky. I wanted something thin and swift looking, so I made these up.

    Nice, My version of him just reuses the blade that came with Swoop. He wasn't going to be using it after he got upgrades.

    The Swoop sword is a good alternative for Metalhawk, true. Good idea.

    Still, I got the matching Mini-Sword for the shell, which make it very nice.

    Working on a full jet conversion for the Decoy Suit. Has rifle, sword, nosecone and twin wing pistols. Should store in robot mode.

    Looks great! What material did you use to get the sword so smooth? I never know what to choose when ordering items from Shapeways.

    Have you given Vector Prime the boot so Metalhawk's headmaster can now reside in its rightful place?
