clemsonskulls Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I have got a number of Vinctifers, but this is the most interesting one that I have. There are a few problems with it (the tails of each vinctifer are certainly not the original tails), but the specimen was so unique that I thought it was worth acquiring.
