The start of my collection

This is my first purchase from mini beast and the quality and aesthetic of the piece has got me hooked!

I cannot wait to acquire more! Although, they are quite expensive, it is the quality that you’re paying for. And it is quality that I got :)

Far better than expected!

I'm so glad I decided to purchase these, they are the perfect size, heavy & very unique. They look beautiful on my book shelf!

Beautiful mantis

I have always been fascinated by Mantis. This is the first of many I hope to add to my collection. Beautifully presented as always!

Great specimen

I have a long standing joke with a friend who is terrified of spiders, especially golden orb weavers, that I was going to get one for when he comes over.

Admittedly it was going to be a live one, I still can’t wait for him to see it!

I cannot recommend Mini Beast enough.

Gorgeous

I purchased this for my wife and she absolutely loves it.

Mounted perfectly.

Stunning

Despite my irrational fear of moths, I can’t deny how beautiful this Atlas Moth is.

My wife and I both wowed when we first saw her.

My favourite arachnid

So happy to have this in my collection. Beautifully mounted and a perfect addition to my wall. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Beautiful Specimen

This moth is absolutely gorgeous. My favourite specimen in my small (but growing!) collection.

Vibrant medium sized moth

This moth has a gorgeous yellow colour living up to its golden name. A great addition to our growing collection of moths!

Huge Atlas Moth

This is quite the specimen. Absolutely huge, much bigger than expected. In addition the colors are amazing and pattern quite striking. A really eye-catching piece. Super happy with the choice.

Incredible Moth

This is an amazing moth, the colors and pattern are quite striking. Very impressive to look at. This is certainly one of the new favorites in the collection. Really appreciate having it in the clear glass, allowing for viewing from both sides.

Great little butterfly

This is a beautiful, small butterfly. The colors really stand out. Love having it in the dome and being able to view from all angles. The dome feels solid and it was very well packed for shipping.

Amazing Stick Insect

Really please with this specimen. The colors are even brighter than expected, especially the pink color of the wings. Really beautiful piece. Frame also feels well built.

Beautiful Moth

This moth has beautiful colours and pattern. It's also much bigger than I expected. Quite an amazing specimen. I'm very glad I added this to the collection.

Triceratops!

Once I saw this specimen listed, I knew I had to add it to my collection. My students have wanted to see a triceratops specimen up close, and this was a perfect opportunity to inspire wonder for them. The artwork is also amazing-looking!

Amazing camouflage!

I have been teaching my students about animal kingdom camouflage, and seeing their faces as they marveled over the dead leaf butterfly was worth it! The wings look exactly like fallen leaves. Nature is impressive!

Giant African Swallowtail!

I did not know about the Giant African Swallowtail until I saw it here, and it has become my favorite butterfly. The colors are stunning!

Spanish Moon Moth!

The wings of the Spanish Moon Moth remind me of a stained glass church window. So stunning! It's a great addition to my collection of moon moths!

Beautiful!

The wing pattern in the rice paper butterfly is just perfect! It's also alot bigger than I was expecting & I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I actually do! I'm so happy I decided to add it to our growing collection! Definitely recommend the rice paper butterfly!!

Such a great collection!

I really wanted the ghost cicada & couldn't decide if I wanted this set or the single. I'm so glad I decided to purchase this one! It's perfect - definitely recommend - Thanks so much!

Big & Beautiful!

So excited to add this to my collection! What a spectacular moth!

Beautiful as always

Great specimen, beautifully positioned and framed. Pretty sparkly up close. Very happy with it!!

A classic!

I have wanted a monarch specimen for years now & minibeast delivered!!! It is beautiful & I'm so happy to have it as part of my collection! Thank you so much!

Love this moonset butterfly!

As always minibeast didn't disappoint! The great moonset butterfly doesn't even look real.... the blue on the wings - absolutely beautiful! Highly recommend! Thank you again!!

Beautiful!

My very first order & it didn't disappoint!!! By far the most beautiful display I have! The blues are just spectacular on the white mat! Definitely recommend!!

Mammoth Moth

This moth is gigantic. It has a very beautiful and unique design on it. The yellows aren't as bright as they look in photos on the site. It is a very beautiful specimen and I would definitely recommend it.

Green Beauty

This is a great example the best colours nature has to offer. The Greens are magnificent in person. It's small but commands attention. Looks blueish in the dark.

Magnificent Eyes

Firstly, I was surprised by the size of this butterfly. It is alot smaller than I initially thought. Secondly it alot lighter brown with white highlights rather than in the dark brown it is portrayed in the picture. Masterpiece of nature.

Like a painting

My second month of mini beast club and I was expecting it to be a dull month just because the first was so bright but I was stunned.

The specimen is so pretty, it’s hard to believe it’s real. The colouring looks almost like a painting.

So excited to see what month 3 brings.

Beautiful

Such a cool moth!! so visually pleasing to look at. The snake heads on the tips of the wings are stunning

Sick!!

Absolutely awesome looking moth!!

Gorgeous

This moth is so beautiful. Matches my room so well!!

Electric blue beauty

My first reaction out of the box was woooooow. The colour is beyond what pictures can do justice.

I also love that in different light you can see the symmetrical patterns in the wings. It’s a good sized frame too, a real centrepiece.

The most beautiful colour

Not really green but not blue either, it’s such a stunning colour. This is possibly my favourite colour of critter so far!

Beautifully preserved and a fantastic addition to my collection.

A showstopper

This specimen is absolutely stunning. It is vibrant and every time you look you see something different.

As always it’s thoughtfully done and really shows off its beauty.

Colour-Shifting

Depending on how you look at this butterfly and what lighting it is in, it gives off an array of different colours which change each time I look back at it. This has to be one of my favourite pieces in my collection.

So blue!

This butterfly has a lovely deep pigmented blue colour that reminds me of the ocean and tropical places. It’s such a beautiful piece and brings me joy to look at up on display. Everything I wanted and more.

Breathtaking

I am beyond pleased with this. The online photos do not do justice as to just how colourful this butterfly is. It’s great quality and a great size. It definitely stands out in my collection!

Beautiful colour, very shiny

Looks exactly like the product photos and looks pretty from every angle.

Blomfild's Beauty

The name is very accurate! the orange has a metallic shine and looks gorgeous with the black edges.

Agrias Butterfly

Very pretty butterfly. The metallic shine on the grey of the wings make it very appealing!

Spurge Hawk-moth

Cute little moth! The pink on the moth contrasts very well with the brown tones.

Spanish Moon Moth

Beautiful colours on this specimen, one thing you can't see in images is the slight transparency to the wings. Definitely my favourite piece in my collection!

Agrias butterfly

Very nice vivid colour, perfect in a decorated frame!
The only thing that I think would improve the frame is if the name of the butterfly was at the bottom of it, like it is in the standard frames.

Not knowing what butterfly it is takes some charm out of the overall effect, it could put me off buying more decorated frames in the future....

But overall I'm pleased with the purchase

Chondracris Rosea

Arrived in perfect condition, looks amazing. It said it would take 1-2 days to be dispatched and a further 1-2 days to be recieved. It was posted the day after purchased and arrived the day after that so very happy with the speed of receiving the item.

Beautiful Specimens

I love the variation between male and female of this species. They're even brighter and shinier in person!

Beautiful Indian Moon Moth

Purchased as a gift for myself, she looks more beautiful in person, stunning!

Big chonker

Big beautiful beetle, the back of the frame came out when I opened the box its fine though since we were able to fix it and now its fine.

Megascolia procer

Absolutely ginormous wasp, gorgeous in person with its beautifully colored wings especially the iridescent shine they have.

Really cool one

Love the colours, one of my favourites.

Very nice specimen

I have a similar larger species so this is cool next to it.

Love it

Got to love a damselfly and this one is presented nicely.

High quality tarantula

Beautiful tarantula. The legs are a deep blue and glisten in the Sun.

Great insect

Neatly preserved in a very large frame

Splash of colour

Love this one mixed in with my others, i don't have much yellow.

Metallic wood-boring beetle

Pretty cool one last time!
