I've had these forever and never figured out anything to do with them I thought this looked kind of cool. I'd like to do some more fantasy kinds of figures but don't have many parts for them. This could be a start though, pauldrons for a dark warrior.

looks like a "kiss" kind of vibe, i like it! my wife just nabbed a bunch of megablok halo parts for me at a thrift store and those hands for shoulders would fit well :)

Mad Max bad guys would wear something like that.

Can you try it with the hands reaching upwards?

I don't think so as I believe the claws clip over the figures hands leaving a big gaping hole in the bottom.

I'd dremel them out so they sit a little tighter on the shoulders, more in towards the neck so the fingers are almost gripping the shoulder joint. It will restrict movement but I think it would be realistic since that type of shoulder armor would restrict movement in real life.

I think Chap Mei had an accessory that was a metallic clawed hand at the end of a stick, if you are interested in seeing that look.
