YAAAY NAUTILUS.
I'm fairly surprised that we didn't already have a thread like this...
But enough of that, have a cuttlefish.

Nice. Too bad the maker of the model in Newcastle Museam had someone describe what the Vampire Squid looked like to him, and missed out on all the cool features, such as the huge eyes, the photophores and its tricks with the said photophores. Either that or he actually thought this was a good representation. Either way this abomination is unforgivable

Just look at it. Have you ever seen a worse model than that?
