The guys at Penny Arcade have taken an interest in this.

Wow. Though from the description on the sale, it sounds like fixer-upper does not do it justice. The place seems pretty wrecked, and the reason they're selling it relatively cheap is 'cause it'll take a lot more money to make the place usable for anything.

Still, it's pretty damn awesome to dream about. Gotta wonder who'd shell out for this place. If I were uber rich, I'd be on it in a heartbeat.

I'd buy it just to pretend that I'm a Bond baddie.

Finally, I've been searching for a new place after some agents destroyed my hollowed out volcano filled with mag-ma.

Yeah, but how many missiles does it have? How close is it to the shops? What's the TV signal like there?
Find out the answers to these questions and more on next week's exciting installment of "Oh My God I Can't Believe I Just Bought a Silo."

Just the place to demand a ransom of......ONE MEEELION DOLLARS!

I remember a website not long ago-supervillain supply I think it was called. It had tons of things like this. Just another sector e-bay is taking away from the hard working Megalomaniac.

If I win the lottery, I'd buy it. That's a steal at £750,000.

I'd decorate it up like Rapture.

Rapture 0.5 when you think about it. The original location before he went underground.

Kind of like eureka but without the niceness.

The market's getting tougher out there for the aspiring mad scientist. And out-of-work henchmen, for that matter.

While we're quickly on the subject of eBay, there's a lifesized Big Daddy here. Ends tomorrow, local pickup from Essex, and currently £250.

PC Gamer UK had one for competition a few issues. Never entered sadly, but then theres the problem of where to put it so maybe it was wise...

What the hell is that guy doing down there?


Anyway, would probably fit in the back of my Land Rover. So that'll be £255+ for the model and £60 for fuel...

Whoop, my bad. I'd say whoops, but there was only one whoop to be had. Hence the lack of an s. Yes. Not tired at all.

Apprantly the guy didn't really want.
Obviously, that pissed off a fair few people that did want it.
