Sporty Spy gear for Genesis 8 and Genesis 9 Males..... Females already have plenty of stuff...

Secret Gaget labs... where they try out all the dangerous stuff...

Cars with frikking lazer beams... guns... ejector seats... rotating license plates...

Elaborate traps that are easy to escape from.... shark pits... ropes hanging over hot Magma....

Fembots!!!!!

Training facilities with ropes bridges, and targeting ranges... places to show off your skills and spar with trainers...

Evil Genius layers....Places where an evil genius can hold the world hostage from....

Machine guns that can hang from shoulders while ski-ing, making it easier to shoot at secret agents...

Snow mobiles with machine guns up front...because...why not?

Motorcycles with rocket launchers... Okay... I just want one....

Helicopters with heat seaking missles,  for swimsuitmodels to pilot.... This is very important...kind of a no brainer....

Elaborate Mansions with pool party props.....

Museums with ... a decent bar... and doors that lead to ...secret pasages.... or vaults....

 

 

Add more ideas to the post!!!!

    A couple thoughts.

    I think you need to become a Daz Power User.

    1) Master searching the store. James Bond and such are popular franchises in Dazland. There are TONS of products related to covert operations, spies, gadgets etc.

    Look under terms like "Underground" "Secret" Base" "Villain" "Lair" "Headquarters" etc...   https://www.daz3d.com/catalogsearch/result?q=lair ;   for example.

    2) Master kit-bashing, which is using parts of stuff with other stuff to make new stuff. Any motorcycle can have guns come out the front. Any helicopter can have missiles on the sides.

    (I'd make a video, but the last guy didn't even come back and say thank you, after I made it.) 

    3) Greebles, textures, parenting and pivot points. Learn the Surfaces Tab to add little parts to be convincing. https://www.daz3d.com/nurnies-greebles-parts-and-pieces

    Place one of these on the front of the motorcycle (Use the same texture map from the motorcycle for the greeble part) Place a regular machine gun barrel in the front of the cycle and you got it.

    Learn Parenting and how to attach items and when to add a part just to help make things move the way you want.

    4) Thing of Daz Studio as a library of Parts and not Products.You don't need a product if you already have all the parts.

    You can search your library for items using the Files tab on the upper right. Put in "Door" "Gun" "Wall" etc and assemble your own parts asset.

    ------------------

    I went this way because I make comics and I need a lot of things that don't exist. And even if I find something, it doesn't always match the look I'm going for.

    Aside from that, Daz has a tendency to release a product after I already completed the story that needed it. lol

    I did do a whole deep dive into kit bashing course that I'm sure is super discounted by now.

    You don't need to buy the course, just the trailer really shows you how it works.

    Oh, and don't forget the forum has a lot of skilled used in here.

    It's a major, major resource.

    You can create a thread and ask users to post Spy-based stuff and see what you can use to build your library or....

    Post the exact thing you need as a problem and members will come up with solutions.

    Well, there's a Great White and Megladon and there are lots of light sabre things (and freebies at renderosity) that could be attached to the shark with a strap thingy, or embed the handle in the shark's head, and parented together you have a laser beam wielding shark.

    Can't think why you'd want to, but.. it's possible.

    Regards,

    Well, we did that too. At 26-second mark.

    I think that's this guy JAWS https://www.daz3d.com/jawz-for-genesis-81-male

    Wearing a Sci-fi helmet + Tactical goggles.

    And I'm 90% sure the laser glare is a Ron Deviney product like this one.
