Strange Shape

I didn't expect this butterfly to be so big. While it doesn't have the crazy colours that I've seen on other butterflies, it is an unique-shaped butterfly and I'm loving it

Fortunately this was in an 8x10 frame that would ship in a clear glass frame. The underside makes it well worth doing. Just keep it out of the sun to prevent fading

Atticus Atlas World's Biggest Moth

Sadly this 10x10 frame won't ship with a clear glass frame allowing you to see both sides. The male and female make a great pair. Years ago I got a female and the rich brown colours faded in the sun. I'm keeping my new one in a windowless room.

The first aspect of this butterfly that screams out to me is the amazing deepness of the blue, especially under lights. It also has a nice unique shape. Not that big.

Can’t wait to see next months

I signed up for the mini beast club, I picked the blue swallowtail because let’s be honest it’s such a striking butterfly.

It arrived and pictures don’t do it justice. It’s so elegantly done and really does stop people in their tracks to compliment it.

Female Chinese Moon Moth
Female Chinese Moon Moth In Box Frame (Actias dubernardi)

Wow!

For my first I decided to get the female Chinese moon moth. I was not disappointed, she is stunning.

The frame is fantastic quality and she’s been so thoughtfully worked on that she still looks as beautiful as she did before.

It’s truly an art form and mini beast has mastered it. If you are on the fence this is your sign to start your collection!

6th month - Monotypic Grasshopper

This was my 6th sub and is an incredible addition. The contrast in the colours is so crazy looking and was such a surprise as I've never heard of them before.

The collection is really growing now along with the few I've bought separately, its gonna look incredible once the wall is filled with frames.

4th month - Butterfly Cicada

This was my 4th sub specimen and it definitely isn't the flashiest but the colours on it are awesome. Can understand where they get their name from as at a distance it does look like a butterfly.

Camponotus gigas
Giant Forest Ant
Giant Forest Ant In Box Frame (Camponotus gigas)

Doesn't look real

Being from the UK its crazy to think that ants can be this big. Trying to imagine thousands of these together makes my head spin.

As always it's been displayed beautifully.

Xylocopa confusa
The Yellow Spot Carpenter Bee
The Yellow Spot Carpenter Bee In Box Frame (Xylocopa confusa)

Welcome surprise

I got this for free as part of an offer and I'd be lying if I said that it was something I would actually buy normally. That being said I've come to really enjoy looking at this one even though its not as visually crazy as most of my other frames.

As I've come to expect from Minibeast the quality is near perfect.

Lethocerus indicus
Giant Water Bug
Giant Water Bug In Box Frame (Lethocerus indicus)

This is an insect I love and also hate

I love how creepy these look and just the nickname "Toe-biter" makes my toes curl.

The quality as always is outstanding with these specimens.

Large Golden Scarab Beetle
Large Golden Scarab Beetle In Box Frame (Chrysina aurigans)

Pictures can not do this one justice!

Ive been waiting on one of these to come back in stock and was sooo happy when it came up. This is one of my top 5 favourite insects and I couldn't ask for a specimen of much better quality.

Everyone who's never seen one before always asks if its naturally that colour or if it was painted!

This was my 2nd month of the sub. I was likely going to get a leaf insect of some sort anyway as they're incredible looking so was super happy to see this when I opened the box. As always the quality is top notch.

The first of many!

One of the best choices Ive made in a long time was to start this subscription. You 100% get value for money and also a great surprise each month.

I chose the Death's Head Hawk Moth for my first as it's too much of an iconic insect to miss out on. Couldn't ask for better quality and the frames are really well made.
