If medieval knights had exoskeletons, they’d look like Trypoxylus dichotomus. Native to forests across East and Southeast Asia, this beetle is a six-legged tank with a signature Y-shaped horn used for wrestling rivals off logs and impressing potential mates. Males can lift up to 850 times their own body weight—meaning if you could pull that off, you’d be bench-pressing a small airplane. Revered in Japan as a childhood pet, a summer icon, and even a video game character, this beetle straddles the line between beloved and absurdly overpowered. This hard enamel pin captures its glossy armor, dramatic horn, and quiet confidence in polished metal and rich enamel—no leaf litter or sap oozing required. Specs: * Premium metal base with polished hard enamel fill * Secure clasp so your beetle doesn’t “take flight” * Size: 42 x 39mm * Won’t raid your fruit bowl… probably Perfect for insect enthusiasts, beetle battle aficionados, and anyone who appreciates the brute strength and strange beauty of the arthropod world.
