I haven't gotten enough for those, but I feel the same way with the cicadas shell. I'm lucky I even found one. I had to finally go on a Nook island and destroy the entire island minus for a few trees on the mainland. And even 'terraforming' it that way so that I guaranteed nothing else but cicadas would spawn on the trees it still took like almost 2 hours to find one.I think I am just gonna to buy the models for the coelacanth and golden stag on here.
These are incredibly rare creatures, so I don’t want to push my luck with them. The golden stag won’t be out until July anyway. I rather just sell everything after donating them to the museum.
Besides, I do want to get all of the host and visitor and achievements eventually, so I’m just gonna take advantage of that by getting some help with the models and other things.
Maybe others have better luck with rng for the shells, but I've only seen one whole shell since my time of playing in 2020 lol. And I had to actively destroy an island for that to happen.
