Metroids are invading the earth! Where's Samus Aran when you need her?

Let's just hope they don't get to this:

Or this:

Sorry if you think this is stupid, but I thought it'd be rather amusing...

No idea, but it's certainly huge, isn't it? Ever think that maybe Gunpei got the idea for Metroids from jelly fish?

Nooo... the similar appearance of metroids and jellyfish is COINCIDENTAL ONLY!

Ah yes, sarcasm...

But looking into the source image, it is a Medusa Jellyfish. Nifty, neh? A look into some images of them though and underwater they don't resemble metroids more than any other jellyfish does.

Yeah, I guess it's called a Medusa Jellyfish, but I was looking up the image based on body design, which for jellyfish is called the medusa. Eh, go fig. And I think that even in water they look like Metroids, just we're used to the 2D look...

I got an water gun full of ice cubes and an anti-tank missile launcher. I'm set.
