i dont quite understand your question.

are you asking me to tell you every possible thing you can do with the KA?

thats what the search button is for

although i hear it makes a great substitute for a blowup doll if you dress it right.

then replace everything with lighter stronger replacements, thats pretty much the basic idea.
