I purchased 2 male and 2 female specimens. One as a gift and one for myself. I absolutely love these specimens and you can clearly see that these are well cared for and preserved. I am a frequent customer of Minibeast and will continue to be!

Absolute beauty

I love Minibeasts so much! I started buying as gifts for a friend but now I am adding them to my home. I bought 2 male and 2 female and they are stunning! Seeing them side by side shows how each specimen is unique and I absolutely love it!

Dynastes hercules lichyi
Hercules Beetle
Hercules Beetle In Box Frame (Dynastes hercules lichyi)

Wow.

This is my second Hercules beetle as I already had one with the wings in. I asked for a bigger frame and a different label and this was no issue and was accommodated. The beetle is massive. Much bigger than I expected and looks great with some of my other big beetles. Another bonus was I was able to use the £50 voucher I was given as part of the monthly competition, after I left a review on my Goliath beetle. Really can’t fault mini beast.

Giant Forest Scorpion In Box Frame (Heterometrus)

First Purchase

I was super excited to make this scorpion my first purchase to start my collection. Unfortunately, the first specimen arrived damaged, but the folks at Minibeast were kind enough to send a replacement that arrived safe and sound. The quality of the framing is very nice. This is a really attractive piece! Even my non-bug loving friends have admitted it’s neat. Looking forward to receiving my next specimen - a giant millipede!

Love it ❤️

I absolutely love this butterfly. The colors are stunning and I love to order from mini beast. The only thing that was a bit sad was to extra pay 10€ tax because I live in Austria but that is not Mini beast fault, just a side note for costumers from Austria.

Magnificent

This beetle is huge – It is so big that it needs an extra deep frame to accommodate it. The only downside is that it makes my XL Stag beetle look quite puny.

Pamphobeteus antinous
Bird Eating Tarantula
Bird Eating Tarantula In Box Frame (Pamphobeteus antinous)

Awesome tarantula.

Quite a startling addition for my display. I love my spider.

It does appear to be somewhat smaller than I hoped (at least compared to the picture) which is a shame, but I suppose that's all part of buying such natural products on the market.
That aside It is amazingly preserved like all my other framed bugs, down to the hairs, eyes and the enormous fangs popping out.

I can't wait to freak our visitors out with this one, thank you.

I’m happy with my purchase. It was packaged very secure and that’s always a concern when it’s got a long travel ahead of it. The item is priced right and I 100% know I didn’t over pay and the quality is spot on. I don’t think there’s any reason to look else where for my specimens now that I discovered minibeast
