If anyone sees other auctions, post them.

My early guess is the man faced beetle and Giant Walking Leaf will be the most sought after. Any other guesses on what will be the biggest sellers.

I don't want to tell you how to run your thread, but I will. Could you add the types of bugs next to each link?

Really hope these don't turn out to all be dinky butterflies.

good idea

Minty walking leaf looks like another sweet one. The fun part on these cards is if bug collectors or card collectors win these. Two different collectors will battling for them.

I dunno, some of those butterflies are very rare and could fetch alot of money. I'd love a painted jezebel.

A few new ones up.

Honestly these things look freaking awesome. I'd rather get a butterfly though. I wouldn't mind the scorpion but its kind of a let down. They should have spread its arms and claws wide instead of scrunching it all up like that.

These look awesome. When I first read about them I thought it was a stupid idea but man I was wrong.

Adamsince1981 · Jun 7, 2010

These are VERY cool! I can't buy any of them but I'm interested to see what they go for.

Neat items for people that appreciate this sort of thing.

Anyone have a complete checklist or production #'s of all the bugs they made cards for. Already seen a couple here that weren't pictured in the story in Beckett on them.

These prices are nuts. I like the look of them as well, but wouldn't touch them right now. I think that I'll go in my back yard and get some ants. I'll put the ants in a top loader and tape it shut. Then I'll write "BUGS" in big letters on the front with a sharpie and list it on ebay.

Careful. I can see someone asking you to check their bucket first!

so far from what I have seen they went out and bought little johnnys butterfly collection, the promo material had
very few if any butterflies pictured, where is the good stuff?

I've got one custom entymology bug here. It's got an ant, a water bug and a beetle of unknown origin in it. I also inserted several blades of grass to recreate their natural habitat. I feel that this is more valuable than UD's offerings, as the bugs are still alive inside. I'm looking for offers of ONLY HOF AUTOS. Come super duper amazingly strong or don't come at all.

do we know a print run yet?

HOF = Hall Of Flies?

The first Entomology card produced was by Topps. There was a member on Beckett who pulled a card a few years back that had a fly stuck on the back of a card underneath the plastic coating. Anyone here still have a scan of that? I think it was a Topps Tribute card of Willie Wilson. I believe he sold the card on eBay for around $30.

Are you going to complain if your box of T206 doesn't have the Mantle/Ruth dual relic in it?

The checklist was posted ages ago, and had many butterflies listed. Of course they are going to show the best cards on the sell sheet.

EVERY company does.
