That's true! That whale appears to have six appendages, though. It is a Land Whale, and not a bad one, I just meant that my immersion into a world where there are Land Sharks in the tabletop wargame is ruined.

The Bulette, also known as the Landshark. A bulette attacks anything it regards as edible, choosing the easiest or closest prey first. The only creatures it refuses to eat are elves (and it dislikes the taste of dwarves). When burrowing underground, a landshark relies on its tremorsense ability to detect prey. When it senses something edible (that is, senses movement), it breaks to the surface, crest first, and begins its attack.

Sharks are also chondrichthyes, meaning they mostly have cartilage instead of bones.

If you take one out of water there is pretty much nothing to prevent it's body collapsing in on itself and crushing it's own organs. Must suck to be a land shark.

Well of course you can add legs to a shark, but a more robust skeleton? Impossible!

Shark's teeth may be evolved adaptations of the little scales that cover their skin. A shark evolved to live on land could probably evolve a toothy, flexible exoskeleton to help support its body shape. I mean, it has to evolve lungs or something anyway, and of course the legs, so why not?

Unless you're playing a halfling. Those guys are walking bite size snickers to a bulette. Picture being all happy in your little hobbit hole smoking some pipe weed when a land shark Kool-Aid man's into your living room.

I got this Rhino from eBay years and years and years ago, only to find it was a notable wreck: Those wire coils are actually kinda sharp and I'm glad I'm up on my tetanus shots.

Given the overall condition it's remarkable the side railing hasn't been snapped off.

In that guy's defense, the skin is the best part of the paint job. Edit: \/\/\/ Hahaha, In my head as I scanned from left to right I was saying "Huh? These don't seem that bad. I mean it's nothing to write home ab~Oh..." Well. That's what happens when you trip and fall into the purity seal laundry hamper as you rush to join your squad in its drop pod.
