Ladies and Gentlemen,

Those fantastic people at Gizmodo have collated a top-ten list of must have supervillain gadgets...

So, what do we think? Do we think that the Devs may be able to introduce these in the Base Editor? I want the big set of screens and a fantastic underground lair with waterfalls!

Hmm, I wonder what the mist from the waterfall does to their electronic systems...

But yeah, we definitely need the big bank of screens as a base item I know that you can probably sort of simulate that from single items, but it would be nice to have as one big decoration. Plus, pets (robotic or otherwise) that wander about your base would be very cool too (although that's very different from static decorations and probably would require some substantial programming work that might be better spent elsewhere...)

That robot thing is really amazing. Really impressive how it catches itself when they make it lose its balance.

Impressive? Yes. But creepy as hell too, especially in connection with the sound it makes

So far, no one has said that the white cat is the most essential part. I'm dissapointed.

No, the most essential part is the monitors. Every supervillian needs lots of big monitors, even if you don't use 'em for anything...

Exactly. Even Terry Pratchet has lots of big monitors.

And when asked why he has 6 monitors, he answers....

"Because I don't have room for 8"

And that leaves the question, "Why do you want to have 8 monitors, even though you only have the room for 6?"

Wait, I shouldn't have answered that....the answer would likely be "I didn't have room for 10..."

Ah, but thanks to the Austin Powers movies, it now has to be a SHAVED white cat!

He does have room for a cat bed though. Wonder if it gets on with the carnivorous plants?

Is it time for the dance of joy yet?

Agreed, it freaks me out a little. Although the spoof impressed me more.
