Tyrone's books and toys

Our friend Tyrone The Terrible is a professional supervillain, he is also an actor, and writer. He has writen the various villain songs for our animated films and our stage productions. And he's good friends with Tim Curry (you know him as Dr Frank N Furter in Rocky Horror Picture Show) and in fact it was his idea to have him do the voice of the sinister yet charming dropbear Morlock in the rock opera episode of Millitary Koalas as well as in the movie. We had a blast working with him too. Morlock is the most popular male villain in the Millitary Koalas cartoon, the most popular female villain happens to be Spiderella- she's the spiderlady who's half woman half spider.

Books he's written:

  • A Day In The Life Of An Evil Genius
This is his autobiography, it tells you all you need to know about him, it also mentions several historic moments that happened in his life such as when he sucessfully created a working doomsday device.

  • How To Be A Villain

This is a humourous how to guide he's written, it's full of useful and entertaining stuff on how to be a bad guy such as how to perform your own Villain Song and how to build your own lair.

Evil toys he's invented:

  • Monstrosibeanies

These are special beanies that are alive and can become rather monstrous at night. Some of their "Monster" alterego names are parodies of famous horror icons such as Teddy Krueger (freddy parody, he's a bear with a fedora, clawed gloves, and a striped sweater)

  • Custom Made Voodoo Dolls

These are special voodoo dolls you can make yourself, and you can model them after someone you hate like your arch enemy or your boss.

  • Doomsday Device construction kit.

This is a special kit you can use to build your own working Doomsday Device, it has all the essential things you need and an instruction booklet.

  • Villaintrix (Black)

This is a Ben 10 style watch that allows you to morph into one of 10 Disney villains and they are:

  1. Scar
  2. Ratigan
  3. Gaston
  4. Hades
  5. Jafar
  6. Pete
  7. Hopper
  8. John Silver
  9. Shere Kahn.
  10. Chernabog.

  • Villaintrix (Purple)

Same as the one above except this one is for girls and can turn them into one of 10 Disney villainessess and they are:

  1. Cruella De Vil
  2. The Queen/Witch.
  3. Ursula
  4. Morgana
  5. Narissa
  6. Maleficent
  7. Madam Mim
  8. Yzma.
  9. Zira
  10. Casa De Spell


All of those above mentioned toys are available in toy stores and can also be found at yard sales and second hand stores. A word of caution to those who want to use the Villaintrix, once you've selected a Disney villain/villainess to turn into and you've turned into them, you can only stay in that form for 10 minutes then the watch times out afterwards- the reason why this is to prevent the personality of the villain/villainess from taking over you.

Also you have to be really careful where you do it. But other than that both of them are a lot of fun to use, you can use them to mess with people's heads or to freak them out. Of course you would have to a bad guy yourself in order to own them but even if you're not you can still have fun with them.
