what's the brown thing in the lower right? That is most intriguing for me!
Looks like a dried guitarfish

Some figures from the Nature Techni Colour and Science Techni Colour lines.

First some acrylic mascots of Okinawa animals (looks like a lot of the species from Colorata's Okinawa box set). Looks like they come as keychains and on stands:



Next some butterflies. Don't be fooled. These are paper butterflies in display cases to simulate specimens. They are similar to the ones embedded in the acrylic mascots you may have seen in some of my posts.

I quess the making of top quality animal toys is definitely history for Ikimon. A real pitty for they made some of the finest animal models!
To beetle or not to beetle.

The saddest part is that they're still supposed to release that Chinese set...I really hope it makes it out.

looks like Ikimon is re-releasing two more older NTC sets:






BlueKrono

If they're a rerelease does that mean they'll have reasonable prices? That blue dragon can run over 3,000 yen.
I like turtles.

Esp the Chinese high fin

No, the blue dragon is once again a chase. My new figure guy sold out of that figure on the first day at 3000 yen.
I'm currently watching for it at better price for two buyers but don't expect any or much of a better option.

A set of bacteriophages, some with their bacteria hosts! Expected December 2021:



bmathison1972

WOW, new from Ikimon! I am probably getting at least one of every mollusk species (def. the razor clam!!!)








bmathison1972

Just a heads up folks, these Ikimon mollusks are plush toys.

BlueKrono

Good to know. That's not immediately obvious from the pictures. What are the cluster of three darker ones supposed to be?
I like turtles.

bmathison1972

Kitan Club dung beetles! I think I'll get the black one on the far left :)
