In case you didn't know, ﷽there's a life-size replica of Elden Ring character Miquella's arm going around at events, and appar🏅ently it's near indestructible.

To be clear, this is a completely separate thing from the Malenia life-size replica that you can buy from , as well as the 10-foot sta♕tue of Messmer the Imp☂aler that was given away as part of a video contest. The Miquella arm, as far as I know, isn't available for purchase or as a prize winning and is being shuttled around various 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree events for throngs of Tarnished to witness and, inevitably, put th💯eir grubby hands all over. According to a fabricator at Volpin Props, which supplied the statue, the Miquella arm was reinforced with three different impact resistant materials to withstand allಌ sorts of abuse.

"One thing that was stressed when working on Miquella was that people would interact with the hand to enter the event," the fabricator, going by CuteMonster Props, said. "That arm is reinforced🎉 with resin, metal, and fiberglass." 

Ironically, it turns out people have generally been a 💧lot more gentle than the fabricators anticipated. "I'm tickled that every picture so far has everyone handling it so gingerly," CuteMonster Props added.

Miquella is a minor and tragic lore figure in the Elden Ring base game whose taking on a much bigger role in the quasi-religious Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. You can read a little about the character in our Eldenౠ Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree hands-on preview, in which GR's Austin Wood wrote, "For all intents and purposes, it almost feels like a new, small 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:FromSoftware game is coming out. Shadow o𒆙f the Erdtree will inevitably be a lot shorter, sure, but possibly even sw🐠eeter."

Here's how to start the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC in Elden Ring once it releases on June 21.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor wh▨ile freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western reg🅠ional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
