Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols (セックス・ピストルズ) is the Stand of Guido Mista, featured in Vento Aureo.

Appearance and Personality
Sex Pistols is composed of six bullet like "people" living inside a revolver, numbered from 1 to 7, skipping the number 4. Each "person" has a different personality and all love to eat; if not fed, they will not work.


 * No. 1 is typically shot out first, and is often depicted as the leader of the group. Outside the number on it's head, it's usually distinguishable by it's joyful demeanor and canthus-like markings on its eyes.


 * No. 2 appears the most rogue-like, but will often work together with No. 1 as a team. The two have interacted a couple of times through some form of Dap greeting. Aesthetically, No. 2's eyes have a black bar running between them, giving the appearance of googles.


 * No. 3 is vicious and commonly shows a belligerent face. He commonly bullies No. 5.


 * No. 5 is a timid crybaby who is constantly bullied by No. 3. He is most often seen being on the receiving end of some kind of harm. Of note is that No .5 would be the "4th" of the "people" if they were numbered in order without skipping 4.


 * No. 6 is considered the most fearsome-looking of the group, usually keeping an irate face coupled with a V-shaped marking above its eyes. However, it never displays hostility towards the others as No. 3 does and rarely talks.


 * No. 7 is similar to No. 1 in appearance and is known to take initiative in a similar fashion. Much like No. 2, it'll yell out in excitement when riding a bullet, and will sometimes imitate a bull rider.

Abilities
Sex Pistols' profile is found on the final page of Chapter 464.


 * Bullet Control: Mista can command each member of Sex Pistols to shoot into different directions and even bounce of object or stop once its inside the target. Mista's most common use of this is to rebound within inside the target destroying his vital organs. Unlike Manhattan Transfer, each person controls a different bullet, meaning the Stand is not as open to attack, though multiple people can control a single bullet. However, since each Sex Pistol must control a bullet, one can trap the bullet-people and inflict damage to Mista. It is also shown in Mista's initial, yet unconscious, use of the Stand that the Sex Pistols can use their ability to deflect bullets shot by other people; Number 5 has even saved Mista from three fatal shots fired by Prosciutto.


 * Reloading Speed: Mista normally does not reload his own gun, instead having Sex Pistols reload it for him. For this he uses an old six-chamber revolver. Mista can use more than one gun but finds it rather difficult to use automatic handguns, as the reloading process is impractical. Unlike Hol Horse's Emperor, it has no gun to work with by default and must always need a gun otherwise it is useless for offense. It uses real bullets, meaning it does not have unlimited ammunition like Emperor.

Trivia

 * Mista refers to his bullets in Italian, as such their names are alternatively Uno (1), Due (2), Tre (3), Cinque (5), Sei (6), Sette (7).
 * The Stand lacks a fourth member of the Sex Pistols, but ironically is similar in functionality to Emperor, the Stand who is based on the fourth tarot card of the Major Arcana.
 * Skipping anything that involves the number 4 most likely traces back to a superstition involving the pronunciation of the number 4 (四) in Japanese, where it is a homophone of the Japanese word for "Death" (死). Such fear is called Tetraphobia.
