KAIYODO 'Natural Monuments of Japan'

[postsaurischian]

                     Finally I found the time to complete this thread with the two figures that had not been shown yet.

   
                                      >  This is another special - Geoemyda japonica - juvenile

                               
                               


                                      >  ... and No.51  Cambaroides japonicus - Zarigani (blue version with base)

                               
                               

                                       This seems to be the most sought-after figure of the NMoJ set. Although it is the
                                       same figure as No.10, I have seen it being sold on Jauce for more than USD 100.
                                                  Maybe there is something special about a blue Zarigani in Japan?

Nice I don't have the blue form yet. Also, the base (rocks and leaves) is only for this figure? I have the original brown form but it never had the base.

I just went on the US ebay and it is selling for 39.00 so I think I will buy it

....... the base (rocks and leaves) is only for this figure?

Yes, only the blue version has the base.

  This is my complete set with cards (white Honshū Wolf and some cards missing ) the day it arrived a few years ago.
              Man, that was like two Birthdays and Christmas at once!!

gorgeous collection of NMOJ figures!

By the way, in the booklet that came with the Geoemyda japonica juvenile, they show a little diorama of Geoemyda meeting a snail.
Does anybody know if this has ever been released (under which name)? If yes - I MUST have it! It's adorable .

I found out myself. It's from this mystery series "Naturetales" - obviously very hard to get.
