...AAAARGHH! HEEELP! Well, Holger has a BIG heart for bugs for most of his life, but refuses to collect the things made from live specimen. And he has a absolutely SERIOUS phobia for wasps. So... absolutely LOGCAL decision to buy something like THIS for his figure collection, right? I dont get it... men! Presenting the gorgeous model figure of Vespa Mandarinia, the "Japanese Giant Hornet"! Yes; thats another thing those japanese are ver good at, besides forging nihonto - developing absolutely fantastic high quality toy collectibles!    |

If you could wire that thing up as a drone.......think of the possibilities (as well as the tabloid headlines).  |

Oh yes; even with me, and i am not so much into that stuff. Holger says the sound of the ants in that sandstormy desert still gives him the creeps! |

Nice thing! Sorry for trolling, but your GIF reminds me of:

There are only three insects I like...honey bee's, crickets and butterfly's Why crickets? I like their chirping sound and I don't see them as pests as much as simply wild creatures. I associate their presence and their chirping with summer and good memories. Crickets don't seem to ever present an infestation like most other insects do. I grew up watching the Wonderful World of Disney and I saw this guy a lot too...  |

I hate octopus with a passion. But I would love to own one. Same goes with spiders, and my endless fascination with crustaceans

I must not fear.
Fear is the mindkiller.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Edit: spelling

I want to add grasshoppers to my "good insect" list... |

Looks fine to me. A bit of cumin with a bean dip and you've got yourself some good eats.

This needs a toy 'He-Man' to ride it.
