I just saw this on reddit, and I remember there being a thread asking about this a few weeks ago... yes the firefly model lights up! I wonder if there are any other special models (other than the grand models)? Flick truly prefers bug models haha

Crud, now I need to store three of these for two weeks, which is more than likely the next time I see Flick. My Great Purple Emperor model will arrive tomorrow.

Also, why can't Flick be like Celeste where we can visit them once a day, regardless of location, and get a model made?

At least fireflies are so common you could prob just wait until he comes again to catch them haha

I agree, like we can buy art from redd on other islands, why cant we requests models from cj and flick too :mad:

That would be a huge QoL improvement for sure, it makes a ton of sense considering the length of time between visits.
 
this is AWESOME! gotta spam spam spam fireflies now!!!!

(some dino fossils mouth moves when you interact with it. the fake ancient statue have glowing eyes at night and hovers when touched.)
 
I wish the model was in flight mode though.

It looks like it's doing that stiff bug thing when there's danger afoot and they are "thinking" what to do.
 
I found the actual fireflies in NL to be much brighter.

They are very dim in NH, and the model looks better than the actual firefly. :)

I was hoping when you put them down they wouldn't be in a cage.
 
I guess I'm going to have to collect them now.
 
I'm glad it lights up! I need to catch a bunch now, Flick needs to be prepared for all the fireflies.
 
ahhh i am so glad!!! i was the one that made the thread asking a week ago and i appreciate this a bunch, haha. thanks!!! time to gather my bright buggies!!!!
 
great, now i gotta catch a bunch of fireflies and wait for flick to finally grace me with his presence lmaoo
 
Time to go catch some fireflies now and hoard them until Flick decides it's time to show up 😂
 
I'm glad to have come across this thread, thanks for spreading awareness! I came across one of these firefly models at a friend group swap meet and decided to take it in exchange for something else. I noticed some yellow but didn't look particularly closely. Good to know, and I'm happy that I have one now.

Flick does indeed prefer the bug models. I've noticed the smaller the bug, the more detailed their model, and they're the ones I tend to prefer. The flea, fly, and mosquito all have really cool models, though I don't have any of them yet so I don't know (and kind of doubt) that they have any unique features like this, other than being far more detailed than they look normally.
 
Thats good to know. I'll be hassling Flick to craft truckloads of them
 
Woahhh now I know what model I'll be getting once Flick visits my island again lol
 
Oh I need this.
I was a bit underwhelmed by the actual firefly out on display.
I was hoping it would be in a pretty jar of sorts and I could use it around my Island. This is still very cool though.

Now I want a football fish model, just to see if it does too.
Apparently, it doesn't according to the comments on the Reddit thread.
 
Lovely detail! I could use a few in place of garden lanterns. 👀

@Lattecakes where do you usually hoard your catches?
I honestly just place them around my island randomly LOL. So right now they are all over the place haha. I don't mind though since my island isn't 5 stars or fully furnished yet XD
 
I read a couple weeks ago on Reddit that it doesn't light up and I was disappointed.
Good to know now that these light up! :)
