Boxer mantis nymphs or adults?

[Jynxer]

I was wondering if anyone had a picture or pictures of Boxer mantids. Preferably nymphs, but adult pics would work too. I'm just trying to identify my little guy. I would post a pic of him, but our camera won't focus on him. Thanks!

I just don't know what he is! lol. He doesn't really look like those nymphs, he's kind of spiky.

Sadly, my little guy died today while molting. I think he looked alot like the Acromantis. He will be missed. RIP little guy.
