Barbossa Crutch?

[Red Bricks]

Hi, Not sure whether this should be in general discussion forum, But it seemed relevant to Pirates.

I have just purchased the new Lego Barbossa as Privateer, and it doesn't have his crutch, if you have the Lego Pirates of the Caribbean The Video Game, the crutch on there looks very good, but can you get that or anything that looks like the movie one from anywhere, custom sites or official sets?

By the way, I've tried the Basic bar (Harry potter wand) and it doesn't really look that good.

Thanks again

I have completed the game, and to me it looks like the crutch is mostly made up, but based on and old fashioned gas nozzle.

Edit: I have just tried it, the gas nozzle is not long enough to reach the ground when it's held like a crutch.

Here is a little thing I came up with.

That actually looks quite effective, I'll keep that in mind, Thanks

That back part of the stick is a Harry Potter wand isn't it?

[Runamuck]

It's one of the collectable minifigures rods, the viking's axe handle to be precise. The Potter wand is about 4 studs long, the CMF rod is 3 studs long.

I would use a Brickarms monopod for the hand grip.

I think that monopod will do the job

I was looking around brickarms and I think that the monopod and bat clipped together might look good?

Instead of spending all night looking on eBay, you could've just used Bricklink

I know but I have came up with all designs that I've thought of are mostly customs and I had to think up about 15 prototypes in my head without actually being able to touch it. I've bought the monopods from eBay and will either connect it to a Harry Potter Wand or a Viking Axe Handle Bar.

Update:

I have ordered some brown monopods and I will clip them onto a Harry potter wand so it will be held backwards so the remains of the stick that won't touch the floor will act as an arm support.

Will post some Pictures when done
