Prison officials at the Category C Usk prison in Monmouthshire, Wales, confiscated this collection of Final Fantasy weapons created by a bored by talented prisoner using nothing but matchsticks and glue. The collection was fashioned with such precision that blades were “razor sharp” and the barrel on the Gunblade actually revolved:
“Their realism presented a genuine threat to the safety of staff, visitors and other prisoners.”
A security bulletin was sent to jails throughout the UK after the discovery was made, but apparently this has happened before, as two matchstick knives were recently found at Littlehey prison in Cambridgeshire.

Someone has finally caught on to the board game potential of prison with the “Don’t Drop the Soap” game. The objective, as stated on the product page, is to ”Fight your way through 6 different exciting locations in hopes of being granted parole. Escape prison riots in The Yard, slip glass into a mob boss’ lasagna in the Cafeteria, steal painkillers from the nurse’s desk in the Infirmary, avoid being cornered by the Aryans in the Shower Room, fight off Latin Kings in Gang War, and try not to smoke your entire stash in The Hole.” Did I mention that you also get 5 collectible criminal tokens including a Gat and a bag of coke? Now that is some wholesome family entertainment.
