Wow - that's a nice Flying Fish !
This time the translucent Invicta stand looks like it's made for this figure ... looks as it had exactly the same colour as the wing-like fins.

Nice catch, Brontodocus  
_sorry...

What an undeniably cute figure (and one that's realistic and detailed, too  )

I agree, the Invicta stand looks really nice and displays the figure well (probably due to matching those spectacular [translucent?  ] fins).

Very wonderful and amazing figure. One of the best figure of this year of Safari. Thanks friend for sharing  .

A truly incredible creature

Wow!  Amazing figure and great review!

Thanks all! Yes, the pectorals and pelvics are indeed translucent - and they are quite rigid, too (I have the AAA Flying Fish which is nice but the floppy fins of that one somehow devalue it a little)! The figure wasn't easily placed on the Invicta stand and fell down quite often...
