Nah, they're available over here. I considered getting one as a pet and waiting for it to die until I found out how long they live.

My friend has some, they escaped their box and ruined her living room!  lol

That sounds like an awesome 80's fantasy diorama though.  :)

I'll go for either the centre of an alien transport ship/flyer (perhaps Jaffa?) ....

... or the body section of the Giant Land Dragon of Shrewsbury

You know, a "Horshoe Crab" would make a great ride for Martian or Venusian natives

I can see that as a Martian creature. That or this weird thing I once ate in Australia, a Moreton Bay Bug or something like that. Looks like a flat lobster, tastes much better. I did have to call the waiter over to ask how the hell you ate it though, it was like having a Trilobite on your plate, there was no way in!

Cool, but wouldn't it be full of fleshy stuff? That can't be good. Smelly (or should that be smellier) wargames.

It's the body of a Tripod, in fact it's the body of this tripod (which has been my desktop picture for years)


Better view of the body


Not sure how I missed that...
