So I went ahead and purchased my first Crab. http://animaltoyforum.com/blog/2020/10/24/edible-crab-marine-life-by-papo/
The Edible Crab by Papo. Which got me thinking as to what other species of crabs I'd like to see. Preferably non-TOOB and non-IC (looking at you Safari Ltd.)

I'm not looking anything species specific but:
-Fiddler crab
-Ghost crab
-Japanese spider crab

if you're OK with Japanese figures, there are already several fiddler crabs (multiple species) and several Japanese spider crabs (I probably have 5-8). The only ghost crab I am aware of is a recent Yowie figure.

For your presumed size interest, the recent Takara fiddler crab and the Epoch Japanese spider crab might be good for you.

A good one if western brands are more easily available for you than Japanese ones, is the CollectA Alaskan king crab. Fits well with Papo's edible.
