Pounces
Second Instar
First one that got me was Bugs in Cyberspace and their Giant Rhino Cockroach breeding video. Between these and Magnificent Emerald, I need to win the lottery. 
Then ... dang it, this video got me good. (I hope linking this is allowed)
Some of the ones that really got me:
Mardi Gras Roach / mitchell's cockroach
Ellipsidion australe
Emerald cockroach (of course!)
Eushelfordia pica
Melyroidea magnifica
Paratropes mexicana
Panchlora kozaneki
Are the colors of these seriously that gorgeous?
Then ... are any of these even available in the USA?
Other, more common (and still beautiful!) ones featured:
Question Mark
Orange Domino
Green Banana
I'd been thinking about some Domino Roaches, a local reptile store sells them for a couple bucks each so they're such a steal especially considering no shipping cost. But the Green Banana actually made me consider them - watching them in the video they really seem like pretty neat little guys. Honestly, there are so many gorgeous ones out there, it's hard to settle on what I want to get next. I love the John Frost's Amber Dubia roaches though, really thinking about getting some of those (and some papaya isopods!) from Hisserdude/InvertebrateDude when it warms up some - its surprisingly cold here in TX right now, lol!
Sooooo .. anyone else thinking about their next potential order?
I'm just sorta rambling away here right now, feel free to ramble along with.
