Now forgive me for the rather power-gamer-esque air about this post, but my mind started wandering and I just 'had' to know.
Here's the idea, Half-Giant Werebear with Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Bastard Sword, and Monkey Grip. It's my understanding that in hybrid form, he can wield a colossal bastard sword in two hands doing 6d8 damage 
My question is simply one of aesthetics. I'm wondering how ridiculous he would actually look, are we talking a sword twice as big as him, 3 times, more? A sword designed to fit an Elder Titan, hmmm

A halfling weilding a normal sword existed in prior edtions. The blade (not counting hilt) often longer then the halfling height.
Odd vissions can occur like the above, however using weapons longer then height is not all that rare. The whole polearm class of weapons have this property. Some of them slashing and weighing more then a well crafted sword of reach. |

"Caring for afterwards ...? Ker repeated this without understanding.
"After action, afterwards," the dragon said. "Choose the afterwards first, then the action. Fools choose action first."
