To anyone who owns the Exo Froce set 7709 - Sentai Fortress, I have a question or two.

I watched a video review of the set, and the reviewer pointed out a picture of a few weapons on the box - I believe there were two guns. They looked nothing like guns produced before, and I think they were brick built.
I can't find anything about them on the web, and the video review is somewhat blurry closeup, so I'm relying on Eurobricks, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
So my questions for you lucky owners of the set:

Were the weapons supposed to be used by minifigs or mechs?
and the secon question: does anyone have/know of any pictures of these weapons, or maybe instructions for them?

Thanks for reading!

Okay, so it's gut the technic pin in light gray, a regular gray megaphone/droid gun, a regular gray pistol in the pack, an upside-down white ski-thingies, and a 1X1 stud with clip... Courtesy of Lonnon Foster:

Thankyou, Darth Legolas.
What an obscure looking contraption!
I'll have to cobble one of those things together. Doesn't look too stable though!

They actually hold together surprisingly well, and look pretty awesome to boot. Exo-Force was really LEGO's time to shine when it came to huge, unrealistic guns and weapons.

You're right - though I had to experiment with a few different combinations of pistols/megaphones to get a pair that seemed matched and would hold firmly, and I only have the one ski piece at the moment though I doubt that adds any integrity to the weapon itself.
I've been designing some over the top weapons for SP3, and the Exo Force line has indeed been a fantastic resource for a purist like myself fed up of using Star Wars blasters and megaphones to arm the Alien Resistance with
