FigureFrenzy 295 Aye-Aye, Beipiaosaurus, Chuckwalla, Lobsters

We're just going all over the place this time. Kind of a little of this, a little of that. Sometimes things are really, really random! Nayab/FUL/Lontic Lobsters and Spiny Lobster A few marine crustaceans from Nayab (or whatever). Two different sizes of Spiny Lobster and a more conventional Lobster. It's difficult to estimate scales, but the lobster is maybe around 1:4 so the diver is too small for that, but of course these animals come in many sizes I'm going…

Another day, another very random bunch of figures. Again, a pretty broad range of animals and companies. Kaiyodo Takara ChocoQ Animatales Pets Axolotl A lovely little Axolotl figure.

Schleich Bayala Arelan Cheetah I personally think this is one of the most interesting Cheetah figures made, by Schleich, and among many other cheetah figures. The posture is such a unique one. About 1:18 scale, so close to the misguided zookeeper there. Our first…

Vault tales 196 – Clades – Haplorhini

Well, here again with another 'Clades' post which...is another one that can get tricky. I think the name clade has become tricky because of how I broke everything down...but I know what I mean! Anyway, this one will touch upon the 'Haplorhini' which in my database, refers to the basal members of the group of primates that includes the modern Tarsiers, Monkeys, Apes, and Humans (all of which are divided into higher groups of course). At the base of this…
