I have seen a lot of animations using the same method to pick up items. It does not look professional, so I decided to show all you peoples how to do it smoothly
in the end, you should get something like this https://streamable.com/eqa26 (hopefully better than this xd)
 
Starting off, for the item pickup, you need to start off by animating the character when he is going over to pick it up. Now you want to parent the item of choice to his hand. Position and rotate the item in his hand in the certain position that you want him to pick it up from. Now, duplicate the character (if your scenery is very laggy, you can delete extrusions on the duplicate.) Make the alpha of the rig set to 0. delete previous keyframes except for the keyframes that shows him picking up the item. On the original character, make the item's alpha also set to 0 and leave the duplicate's alpha alone for now. Okay, now on the keyframe right after the pickup frame on the duplicate, set the alpha of the item to 0 and do the opposite for the original sword. Now you can go on and animate the original character to pick up the item. 
 
Throwing is similar, just reversed (kinda, idk). Make the animation where the character is 1/4th (i think) way through throwing it and when the item is about to go out of his hand. Pretty much do the same things from the pick up tut with the throw tut. Then, animate the item to be thrown somewhere.
 
Have any questions or want me to do a video tutorial for further explanation? Let me know.
 
in summary, duplicate characters, keyframe alpha, and don't be lazy

is it done?
well yes, but actually no.
i'll make video of how to use this rig on saturday, maybe
here are the previews :

Hi guys! this is my first wallpaper in over a year and so I wanted it to be great!
I Modeled and Texture Every asset in this whole project (except for the scene and the Character model)

Since Season 3 of Stranger Things is right around the corner, I decided I wanted to make the theme be Stranger Things.
I spent around 9 hours on this Project so I really hope you enjoy it!

Alright so I've scoured the forums for a good Kingdom Key rig, and I was honestly surprised no one had come up with one outside of going into a Minecraft world and making one with blocks and scaling it within the software. I took my time to try and get this to look as good as I could while using shapes all found within the software already.
I do ask that you contact me if you use it publicly. Just so I can see the stuff you guys are using it for. After all, credit should be given where credit is due.
Other than that, I hope you all enjoy this rig and get some nice renders and animations with it.
