These all look great, can't wait for the waterscorpion to turn up! The narwal looks especially nice. Hope they will but in an arthropod when making an Asian line-up.

The Emperor Scorpion is just great, but I am afraid above my budget.

Think the waterbug and dorcus will be there by 2050

It's gonna be HUGE:

If I didn't have the Smithsonian one already It'd be on my must have list. Even having that one I might reconsider this one depending on how much I like the crab in person.

WoW! I am waiting for the beetle and Giant waterbug though

the crab is my priority in the series as well!

Release date, mid-June:

What a beauty.

Mantid and mantis shrimp have been teased for this series, along with some photos of the wasp and water bug, and a gharial.

@stargatedalek , Thanks!

They all look so nice!! That waterbug is really good! All of them are ;-)
I have never seen a pic of the Mantis (shrimp) before, Nice !

The Prosopocoilus giraffa is replaced by a Dorcus binodulosus I think.

bmathison1972 · February 12, 2019, 04:48:20 PM

The gharial appears to be part of another series.

Earlier images of the stag beetle were Dorcus hopei, but it looks like it got changed to P. giraffa. That there is a physical prototype for P. giraffa means that is probably the species they will go with (or...both?)

The wasp looks very much like the Mushibushi figure I reviewed (http://animaltoyforum.com/index.php?topic=2279.msg19034#msg19034). I wonder if they are reusing their designs (the Mushibushi figures are designed to be articulated, I just did not build mine that way).

A mantis shrimp would be fantastic.

Wild Rush 4 (presumably a 2019 release):

Komodo dragon, otter (species?), orangutan, tiger, Asian elephant:

Card beneath says December 2019

Pic from a slightly different angle.

I plan on getting the otter for my Synoptic Collection, as it should represent the Indian small-clawed otter.
