Add a touch of unsettling biological horror to your tabletop with this Tooth Plant miniature. Featuring a single, razor-sharp apical spike and a trunk riddled with deep, distressing pores, this fleshy organism is perfect as a carnivorous swamp hazard or an alien bio-structure. Its unique trypophobia-inducing texture ensures it will be a memorable (and creepy) addition to any encounter.
A cluster of predatory flora stands dormant, its sharp teeth ready to snap at anything that brushes against its sensitive, pitted skin.
A low-level environmental hazard, a minor guardian in an alien landscape, or filler for a carnivorous forest encounter.
