Wishing EVERYONE a HAPPY, HEALTHY & PROSPEROUS Chinese New Year 2013!!!


恭祝大家在2013蛇年内: 新年快乐! 万事如意! 心想事成! 和睦相处! 身体健康! 大笃无限! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif




Ushering into the SNAKE YEAR 2013, which if i'm not wrong, this actually marks the 5th Anniversary in Lowyat since the SG FS Circle formed up in Feb 2009!

The Earliest SG Pioneers being Edwin and Yuda, having met each other with their respective buddy tagged along at a very coincidental occasion in Macritchie Reservoir, hunting FS! The SG FS Circle then began to expand steadily with the most number of active members(an inexhaustive list of key kakis...) joining in the year 2009 as well. Years 2010 and 2011 were also good exciting years having ardent FS hunters like Randy, Ricky, Jason, Rudy and etc joining in. Year 2012 onwards, we saw a sharp decrease in FS activities as well as new memberships.

However, by year 2012 we have Utility47 and Mojo2011, the two ever full-time FS spectators cum commentators whom are already indispensable to the forum. Randy has also been the main poster since 2012. You guys definitely did a great job by keeping the forum alive with your selfless devotion. On hindsight, it could also be a nostalgic idea to revive the former forum(our part1 forum) when i joined in Sep 2009. Where we could easily see interactive postings made by 7-10 DIFFERENT kakis talking and answering to each other in just one SINGLE page! With Viper as the all-time FS match analyst since then. I simply relished the vibes of the forum then. By the way, Mindstorm where are you now? Currently too busy with other commitments? This forum is never complete without your presence.

Nevertheless Lowyat is the place that has truly enabled us to relive our FS Dreams after a decades-long hiatus from FS since childhood. We have found out so much more about FS that we will never know without. Such as getting to know what a FS subadult really is, measuring FS on the grid for documentary purposes, videoing the fights and posting them in youtube to share to the world, relishing the fun of naming our beloved FS and etc etc. Most importantly, all of us got to acquaint with various nice and interesting people through Lowyat. Best of all, we all have got acquainted with friends/buddies(locally and internationally) that would likely follow us throughout our lives. Hence, thanks to Lowyat and all the Fellow Brothers here.. smile.gif



Hi Dreamchaser!
Yes i think it is very true, our FS world here is a very small one. Never did i expect Vinson(Owner of Hulk), better known as JinFa for me, is actually my long lost primary school buddy!! Am really happy to reunite with him and get acquainted with you as well. Anyway.. since Hulk is brought up, i shall take the time to introduce what i have known about Hulk.

As a matter of fact, Hulk the much forgotten Legendary SG T.Bha Male actually fulfilled the 3 most desirable qualities which most FS hunters are always looking for:


First of all, what SIZE was he actually?

Let us first take a look at this fight video between Jong's Batman and Edwin's Transformer(TFM).

Fighting Spiders: TFM vs Batman (Batman wins)

As what Jong had told me, Batman was probably an entry level ML sized T.Bha Male. Judging at the size difference between these two Superb Fighters,
TFM as what most people would have guessed, is easily a Big ML or even entry level L sized T.Bha Male.

And now let's take a look at this screen shot between Vinson's Hulk(bottom) and TFM(top).

Attached Image

Hulk opening up his ultra-long forearms real wide that almost embraced TFM within. To me, he is already a XL sized T.Bha Male.

The actual fight video:

Fighting Spiders: Hulk vs Transformer (Hulk Wins)

Luckily there are also some rare grid photos taken of him.
As there are other notable giants such as Terminator and Robocop were unfortunately not taken on the grid at all during that period.
Hulk was actually caught after them.

Attached Image
Looking at the first grid, Hulk seemingly measured 7.5mm(or more) should his body be straightened on the grid(understand he was not fully laid flat on the grid). Having said that, his abdomen at that time of photography was also apparently not very well-fed. Could have easily added 0.5mm to the overall length should he be fed fully.

Attached Image
Looking at the second grid, Hulk really owns a pair of Long, Thick and Hairy forearms!



Now, let's talk about the COLORATION of FS. Certainly one of the key quality we are always looking for.
But what color actually appeal to you the most? Is it Blue also?

Yes Hulk is a Pure Bluish T.Bha Male, better known as Lampow. Not those of green-blue iridescent hue; meaning the coloration could be blue at one angle
and green at another. Hulk is that kind who will appear bluish at any angle. Here are two Hulk photos taken by Edwin if i'm not wrong.

Attached Image Attached Image

To be frank, there aren't many Huge True Lampow T.Bha Males(with ultra-long arms) around since the beginning of our SG FS Circle. The only other ones i can think of are TFM and General of Buaya. Somehow, for some reasons they are always elusive and certainly a highly sought-after breed. At least for myself. HK may have the Biggest T.Bha Male sizes todate, but apparently there aren't Lampows like Hulk down there. Even there are, they are even more elusive. Haha!



Lastly, how well did he FIGHT? Though not as formidable as TFM who actually won him thrice out of the four matches they engaged in, Hulk is definitely no ice-cream fighter as well. Having said that, he did prevail over Terminator, the presumably LARGEST Ever SG T.Bha Male at one awkward occasion for the latter. Terminator probably lost his usual fighting form that night. But Hulk definitely deserved much credit for this victory as Terminator was surely one FS BOSS who beat the hell out of all his other opponents during the Era he reigned supreme. In addition, majority of his opponents were powerful players!

The actual fight video:

Terminator vs Hulk

Additional stuff: The All-time Classic SG T.Bha Match of Terminator versus Robocop!

Fighting Spiders: Terminator vs Robocop (Terminator wins)

So that would be roughly everything i have known of Hulk, an all-time classic for me and i believe to some others as well.



Last but not least, i would like to take the opportunity to share my FS Blog(still very much undeveloped). Currently, has only done with our "HK T.Sub Hunting Adventure 2012" but will slowly add in any relevant FS topic. Anyone, including all the forum readers who don't post at all(understand that Lowyat FS forum is one
of the FS forum around having the Highest FS Viewership!) who is keen to know more about the T.Sub Males and our HK T.Sub Hunting Adventure 2012, please do take a look at your leisure. It was truly a fruitful HK trip for us and we believe that the contents blogged would also offer a whole new perspective on the T.Sub Males. Like many other former active kakis who have either become partially involved or semi-retired or even fully retired from this forum, myself is no difference. Having found a new direction in FS, i will now concentrate on my FS Blog and continue to share any interesting stuff about FS there, at my own pace...

Yes hamkahchan, i also think they are the same species.. as for Deadman's case maybe is due to that he is fighting another species, i think T.Cam Males will more likely response to the same species. Also a T.Cam female should help in boosting his confidence..


Btw here's a shot of the T.Cam female, i like their golden hue man.

Yeah you are right! That's the LC worm, the LC means 莲子。Can feed with oats and bread too. Low maintenance, a perfect food for FS.

Yes, 面包虫 is known as Meal Worms.. the size is too big for FSes, unless you are using the just-born ones but very troublesome..
LC worms size is perfect, just nice for FSes.. if you ever come down SG, will pass you some. You can breed yourself easily..

Hi hamkahchan, i do share your sentiments and thanks for the kind words for Tempest. He is one of my favourite T.Bha male for sure, didn't lose to any other FS if i'm not wrong. A pity i didnt keep him long enough, only for roughly a month's time which is far too short! Hey you are really excellent to have kept your Ex-First King for 5 months!!?? A record that most of us here couldn't even get close to, lol.. thumbup.gif

Yes, Tempest did not lose any fight, even against a few of the H spiders.

Something to check with you, Bro Ura.  Am I right that Baba and Bobo are the same batch as Tempest and Apeno?

And yes, you should have kept Tempest a bit longer so as to challenge Baba and Bobo too.
*
Baba and Bobo were caught in Mar 2012, whereas Tempest and Apeno were caught in Dec 2011.
Too far apart to get them to challenge, a FS's prime only last very very short.
Can't really know if it is a decently fair match to fight 2 males of different periods.


Time really flies, a year's time has passed in a blink of eye and now it is almost time for HK kakis to enjoy their annual T.Sub Males season.. rclxms.gif

Thanks for the info, Ura.  Pardon me if my memory fail.  Uncle Kim found Apeno at the spot near to where you found Tempest.  And Uncle Kim made another trip to HK in March?

From your own trips to HK, is T-Sub more abundant than T-Bha?  HK kakis never interested in T-Bha? Could the T-sub and T-Bha seasons be different?
*
Yes, they were caught at the same area bearing some insignificant almost-flattened lily plant patches.
Mar, Uncle Kim went again, but that time i couldn't join him. T.Bha is really in abundance, not really for T.Sub.
I only realized this on my previous trip in 2012. HK kakis majority play T.Sub, T.Bha not so much but still there're T.Bha fans there.
Definitely different seasonal periods, as for T.Bha season, you can try Mar to May 2014, should be good.. thumbup.gif


Fyi: HK T.Bha fans do like our SG/Msia T.Bha Males very much.. biggrin.gif

T.Sub Male face is not white, slightly hairy though. Generally black face.

Here's a pic of it:

That T.Sub Male is extremely rare to get. Probably only produced 1-2 in a year's time.
He is Enigma, caught by our Golden Hands Yuda, the former Spider King in this forum.


I have written the T.Sub hunting adventure in a blog, pls take a look too:

Can't remember.  Was Enigma bought back to SG? Is it the largest T-sub to date? Have HK kakis caught a bigger T-sub?
Something to ask too - in catching T-sub, do you guys see T-bha too?

Do you know this guy, Ura? http://www.youtube.com/user/9319533/videos . It seems that he has a "big" T-sub spider farm.
*
Yes it was brought back to SG in Oct 2012. Certainly Largest ever T.Sub Male brought back to SG.
But in HK, 10mm T.Sub Males were caught before in 2011 and earlier. Yet to see a 11mm T.Sub Male though.. drool.gif
That time we went for T.Sub so there weren't any T.Bha adults around, all still young.

That youtube guy i don't know him personally, but Xarms knows him. He is very professional in his setup and videoing the clips.

Is daylight effect, they are not totally black but just not as white as T.Bha.

A gallant FS fight that you have(May video).What were the names of the two FSs? Hope that the FS(lost one leg) survived.

Mojo

Hi Mojo2011, these two FSs were just caught randomly and fought against. Released on the day itself too.
Yes that injured FS should have survived as he regained his consciousness after a while before releasing.. smile.gif

Yes he is also Heidern, they didn't formally fight before but Tempest will beat him easily.
The closest opponent ever is H12 vs Tempest.
