I can understand someone being a fan and wanting to build a model. That's cool. But why matchsticks? At least use larger wood or metal.

Has anyone ever lit a group of a half dozen matches or so from one match all at the same time? It makes a nice big fire ball as they ignite, right?

Can you imagine what that would do if you lit it on fire? laugh

*mischievous ideas*
