Play Vision Beetle Palooza!

I feel like Play Vision loved beetles because out of all their insect figures, beetles get the most variety!

That are wonderful figurines. Are all PV?

That are wonderful figurines. Are all PV?

No, PV only did a set of 8 beetles (I have them reviewed here already, here: http://animaltoyforum.com/index.php?topic=1940.0), most of these are by XX.

I have to admit I am a specialist on arthropod figures and I am still missing half the XX beetles (Calosoma, Leptinotarsa, Cotinis, Pyrrchroa, Cicindela, Cassida, Chrysochus, 2 versions of Adalia, possibly others...).

In addition to PV and XX, your first (group) photo shows the Melolontha melolontha by Bullyland.
