My next two reviews are en route to me, both in Bandai's Diversity of Life on Earth line: lobster moth caterpillar and bullet ant!

@Beetle guy - please let me know whether or not you wanted to review these (I also have the SO-TA 1/1 Goliath beetles coming, but I will definitely let you have those :) )

Awesome! I've been slacking on the themed reviews. But with that said, I would like to reserve March 17th, St. Patrick's Day, for an Irish animal review like I did last year.

Latest update on my review schedule: no definite date for any reviews besides February/March as I'm crunching on assignments and exams. However, May 30th is a confirm date where there's a review and I'ld like to reserve that date!

Anyone have a cryptid planned for April 1st?

Ah yes I think I do!  Well not a cryptid but certainly something appropriate for the date. But of someone has an interesting idea, I can reserve it for them. Someone should review the Safari Cryptics TOOB :)

EDIT: I reached out to Saarlooswolfhound to see if she has the TOOB and would be willing to review it for us!

I was born on April 2! I suggest seeing if you wife could hold off a day. Better to be a regular fool (like me) than an April fool! bwahahahahaha  :))  :))  :))

BTW, Saarlooswolfhound has the Safari Cryptozoology TOOB and will be reviewing it for us!

The actual day is March 27th but that's close enough to April 1st that I don't think I'll have reviews on my mind.  ^-^

The 2023 Schleich harpy eagle has been reserved, per @Fembrogon

Done!

The CollectA goblin shark will be released in March. However, the CollectA angelshark won't be released until June. Shark Week is July 11-18. I don't know when @Gwangi plans on buying them, but the angelshark might be cutting it close for Shark Week. I assume the angelshark would be reviewed for Shark Week, since the goblin shark makes more sense for Halloween, but I don't know Gwangi's plans :).

Oh, since we are talking shark reviews, I will review the Bandai Diversity of Life on Earth frilled shark for Shark Week!

If I can get them before Shark Week I'll review the angelshark for it but if not then I might save the angelshark for around Christmas time. It would be fun to review the "goblin" for Halloween and the "angel" for Christmas. But ideally I'll review it for Shark Week. If not I still plan to review a shark or two for Shark Week. I know I have at least one older shark figure reserved.

Thanks @JimoAi, I look forward to your goblin shark review too!

bmathison1972

Ha! An angelshark for Christmas! Brilliant; maybe I'll do a sea angel around that time, too!
