| Interesting; they look like 'knock-offs' (for lack of a better term) of Kabaya or maybe Takara Tomy figures (without knowing their size). They are, from top to bottom: Allomyrhina dichotoma, Dynastes hercules, and Chalcosoma atlas or C. caucausus (need to see the cephalic horn from the side to tell which). All three species are super common among Japanese manufacturers. |

| They are presented in a very beautiful way. We all suspected Blaine could easily identify their species. ; Thanks for sharing them with us. |

| [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I found another one (at the top on right) in another "Action" store, but it seems a lot to Dynastes hercules except the colour, is it another species?.. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |
