Mini Museum - Fifth Edition (TOUCH - 34 Specimens)
Mini Museum - Fifth Edition (TOUCH - 34 Specimens)
The Fifth Edition Collection begins with the stellar heart of our solar system. The core of a primitive celestial body formed in the cataclysmic heat and violent aftermath of the sun’s ignition. We'll journey from this exuberant beginning more than 4.6 billion years ago to visit with our closest neighbors in the cosmos.
Turning to Earth, we enter a world bathed in fire. Billions of years pass before the first stirrings of life, and then suddenly, it is everywhere.
We will explore it all... from armored fish in the ocean's depths to the conquest of land, and scrambling creatures covering the surface of our planet. We'll see the largest creatures ever to roam the earth as well as those who evolved to prey upon their majestic forms.
Please Note: This 34-Specimen TOUCH version features the lineup from the Fifth Edition with exclusive specimens from the early production run. In the near future, this larger collection will be replaced with a limited 29-specimen version, so if you're looking to pick up the full collection, the time is now.
SCIENCE & HISTORY YOU CAN FEEL!
TOUCH VERSION
The Touch is a special version of the Mini Museum where all of the specimens are accessible for careful study. As pictured here, the Fifth Edition Touch version comes in a classic, glass-topped riker display case.
Please Note: The Touch is not a toy and it is not intended for children. The specimens can be removed from their individual acrylic jars for careful study. We say "careful study" here because many are quite delicate.

The Mini Museum is a handcrafted, limited edition collectible. The unique specimens are artfully arranged and clearly labeled. The entire collection is encased in Lucite acrylic and designed to inspire for generations.
Please Note: The Mini Museum is a hand made product and the production process lends itself to small variations. All Mini Museums are sold "as-is" and by purchasing a Mini Museum, you acknowledge that such variations can occur. Such variations highlight the artisanal nature of the project, as each Mini Museum is made by hand and absolutely unique.
