What I find particularly a-mew-sing is that it seems two different Japanese toy companies have a new line of toy cats advertised on the same day; the set by Ikimon all look super friendly and these ones all look really angry  :))

I almost posted them as 'Grumpy Cat' lol

Qualia lizards. I have some snakes by them in a similar style:

Upcoming from SO-TA; the monochromatic models might be prototypes and the final paint might be different/better

I believe those were April releases (They are available now.) and there are variants, though I didn't study well enough to know details. But the text did not the mosasaurus only being available as glow in the dark. Strange...

The third (?) set of Stasto 3D file Ladybugs, this time with cetoniines!

Yell herps, designed to wrap around pencils and such. Sculpts aren't half bad!

Tarlin frogs:



Re-Ment furniture. If you look closely, Figure '2' has a dog, beetle, and something else; might of interest to scale-conscious collectors.

That stag beetle could ve very tempting for me, anybody knows its size???

Maybe @brettnj can check with his source.

I would guess a few millimeters!

Hard to tell species, but given it's from Japan and the shape of the mandibles, I would guess Prosopocoilus inclinatus or P. dissimilis.

brettnj

The two insects are very small, I'd say less than 1 cm.

Isidro

Many thanks! Little less than 1 cm (about 8-9 mm) with mandibles included, would be ideal for me!!! Is easy for you to get only the stag beetle without buying the whole set, and for a cheap price? Then I would get one along with more figures :)

I didn't noticed the cicada moult until you mentioned "two insects"!

Everything under '2' is sold as one component of the set, so you would be getting the dog, butterfly net, beetle, cage, and cicada nymph/molt. That is probably as narrow as they can be purchased.

Isidro--ask me these questions directly. I can get the group of the dog and two insects and their accessories. Please e-mail (not direct message here) ASAP while still available.

some fish by Toys Spirits; probably nothing on your radar right now @sbell but thought I'd alert you to them

Already have the set! I think it came out a couple years ago.
I remember finding pictures of some small animal ones but not sure if they were older or upcoming or what

bmathison1972

oh, must be a re-release then! Thanks for the info!
