What Every Villain Needs

What self-respecting supervillain does not have a secret underground lair, and what is the one thing that no supervillain lair should be without?

Sharks.

The ultimate status symbol amongst the supervillain community, nothing quite says 'megalomaniac' like a shark pool to dangle unfortunate heroes over.




These hungry critters are part of a pack of rubberised plastic sharks I bought from Toys 'R' Us for £5 (for about 20) a while ago. I chopped these three in half with a small saw, and positioned them on 40mm bases. The spay is just DIY filler (plaster) roughly blobbed on and allowed to dry. It was so cheap and easy to do that I might have to do some more- with frickin' laser beams!

These will be good for Superhero games (suitably Four Colour for my tastes) as well as for Pulp-Era, fantasy and even Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

  1. What, no lasers? What's a guy got to do to get some sharks with some friggin lasers on their heads?

    Seriously though, those are some awesome figs.
