I waited 4 weeks for this to arrive, and promised Meegs I would post a picture of it....he is adorable and in perfect condition,  wrapped so carefully by the seller.
I am still jumping for joy, I have wanted one of these for ages!
 :rah:

Any more information about the maker or date made would be very much appreciated. :angel:

He´s a funny one, nice find!  :thup: Adding Ronneby to the title might be helpful to attract Inca´s attention.

BTW did he cut the hedge in the background? I´d call him Edward then...  ;D

Hello m,  :hi:
He is a magnificent 9" long and just over 4" high at the tip of his 'antenneae'. I have fallen in love with him!  ;)

Thanks Rosie,
He is one magnificent large caterpillar.
Lucky he didn't emerge from his cocoon of packaging after 4 weeks and fly away  :thud:
I do like his positioning and the way he's moving along looking about for his next meal or victim!
Thank-you for posting him.

Cheers
Meegs

Thank you pl79 and Meegs  :kissy:
Where are you Rose? Is this as good as your 'Secret'?
I am waiting for you to find an animated caterpillar for me....you seem to be able to add animations....I can't! :cry:
Hello Mod, has the title re-jig worked, it seems to have reverted to the original?? Can you check for me please?
