The quality this item was good. But when I received it, I received duplicates of each bug so there’s only 15 different bugs, but two of each. Super disappointing for the money I spent. It was too close Christmas when the item arrived so I didn’t have time to return it and find something different.

Grandsons love studying these creatures - very clear resin enables kids to see all the details without destroying them. Can sort them into phylum, by size or color, can look them up in bug books, great entry into biology studies.

My daughter loved these but there are duplicates of each kind. Donated the other half to my daughters elementary school for STEM

The professionally preserved thirty-piece collection of insects and other arthropod specimens in resin is an interesting item for biologists, entomologists, students and even children. The details of each arthropod are preserved and the differences between the species are clear.This collection of arthropods features two each of fifteen different species including, beetles, butterflies, scorpions, a cricket, hornet, cicada, spider, and a crab.The arthropod specimens are preserved in highly polished, transparent acrylic blocks. The edges of the acrylic blocks are beveled to give each specimen a professional look. The dimensions of the acrylic blocks are 43 mm x 27.5 mm x 19 mm, and the weight of each specimen block is approximately 28.7 grams. The box that the specimens were shipped in can be used to store and protect the easily scratched acrylic specimens.How would I use this professionally preserved collection of examples of arthropods? I have used these specimens to entertain and educate my grandchildren. Some of the grandchildren are afraid of insects, while others closely examine the specimens. They can group the arthropods by comparing their bodies, including the number of legs, wings, and body shapes. What are the differences between butterflies and moths? Common names can be used to describe the arthropods, such as, crab, scorpion, beetle or butterfly. I’ve even asked them if they could invent a game using these acrylic blocks. So, this collection does serve the purpose of educating young minds who are willing to examine such very different creatures.I rate this thirty-piece collection of preserved arthropods as a 5 out of 5 and I would recommend it to educators, biologists, entomologists, students, and even grandparents who want to educate and entertain their grandchildren.

I bought these as my daughter likes bugs and to study them… 30 sounds great but you really only get 15 as you get 2 of everything … would be better if you actually got 30 different species… sure have 2 Beatles but do differently ones so you can compare … also would be better if I knew any one else that liked bugs and I could give the other half too verse having 2 of everything

As soon as I started unpacking them my kids started swarming me asking if they could have some. 😆 The resin quality is great, minimal bubbling, no cloudiness, the animals are well preserved and beautiful. There are two of each insect/crustacean. The blocks are lightweight and sturdy, they don't fall over.
