Handcuffs

Bob, the negotiator, convinced me that his police officer costume is incomplete because he does not have handcuffs. I tried to counter that many police officers use zip ties these days (not only are they more hygienic since they are only used once, they can carry a large number on their belt to immobilize many accused criminals in one day). Bob would not budge and I gave in.

Today Bob has experimented with all kinds of uses for the handcuffs - hand to doorknob, two hands, two feet (he can walk with his feet shackled), foot and hand (that one is pretty immobilizing), etc. Here is Bob tethered to a brass planter.

Don't worry, they can be released without a key.
