Pinata Modding

One day, I was eating a burrito at a taqueria and saw a pinata that I knew I had to buy, so that I could bring out its true form:

The blue power ranger will make a good base for my project.

This is what I imagine my pinata as looking like after a bit of work.

With a plan in hand, I set about realizing my vision.

Behold, my diver pinata after 2 hours of work. It's not quite finished, but doesn't look half bad...

Note the double tanks and Jacques Cousteau-style aqua lung config. Armed with a speargun and a diving machete (which all professional divers take with them when wrangling sharks), Scuba Steve is ready for anything!

I almost feel bad that it's going to end up beaten with a stick, innards spilling out of its broken form... Almost. And then I remember that pinatas hold candy and toys.

Oh, good stuff.

Pinatas rock!

You should fill the tanks with butane-filled balloons and snap caps just for kicks. And maybe fill the entire body with ketchup and prunes (blood and blood clots). Also, you could use an aqualung instead of a scuba setup in future models; the hose could double as the tie up.

Nice work, tho!!

What a transformation. I vote for candied fish and su-kombu for treats!

Um...How about calling him Diver Dan? Scuba Steve hits a little to close to home. Unless you want to put a guitar and budweiser in his hands.

reminds me of Beer Keg and Bong...I guess that was just practice.

I don't know if this will double up or not, but I did try to post...sorry if it does. I was going to suggest his name be Diver Dan...I don't know why, but Scuba Steve just seems a little off target...especially if you are planning to beat him bloody and/or send his arms flying through the air. Plus Sucba Steve wore a yellow and orange suit, not that I...uh...would...uh know anything about it, but really...no seriously...really, okay but seriously...alright it's not a problem, but seriously...you know what I mean...um, okay then. Right then.
