My guess would be a female Batocera aeneonigra (Thomson) from Halmahera Island in the Moluccas. I have specimens that look similar from Bacan Island, which is just south west of Halmahera.

I may be wrong, but your bug from Halamahera could be B. aeneonigra occidentalis. My B. aeneonigra is from Bacan while my B. aeneonigra occidentalis is from Halamahera. Still.... I agree with diegolobo on the species and gender.
Btw......back when I got my pair of C. albopicta, they were indeed a prize. Nowadays, they are nice to get, but are a bit more available than twelve years ago. Gorgeous bug it is, though.
