Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

    It could also change directions that it is facing. Maybe even be able to teleport to different places. Maybe it is a type of golem

    It would be cool if this acted more like a redstone block-it would automatically shoot nearby hostiles like an archer, and could be shut off with a redstone signal. Maybe putting it adjacent to different ore blocks changes what/how it targets nearby enemies?

    I think it could be a bit more elaborate than this: For example; what if the shulker turret acts somewhat like an actual shulker? You can load the thing with projectiles, (Either manually, or with a hopper), and it will fire on hostiles nearby. It emits a comporator signal, can be moved by pistons, and deactivates if powered by redstone. 

    Different mineral blocks could also be used to alter what it targets- depending on which is adjacent to the turret. This would also allow you to make machines that cycle through target types. It could make a really devastating multiplayer defense, or a fun new twist to minigames. 

    Maybe it uses copper in the crafting recipe?
