Mojo Fun 2025

Sadly these repaints aren't really improvements. I can hardly tell a difference with the camel. I don't see these getting much interest. I hope they release something new or have a more drastic paint change.

Disappointed with Mojo considering they have given us some really lovely models in the past.

Mojo originally released a brown version of their Griffon vulture figurine, but then they replaced it with a black version. However, they have now brought back the brown version, but with some modifications. It seems like Mojo is experimenting with different color schemes and designs for their Griffon vulture figurine, perhaps in response to customer feedback or changing preferences!

In my opinion, the 2013 version looks more realistic in comparison with 2025!

I have the two first versions of this model. I find this griffon figure magnificent. My problem is that the new colors seem stylistic choices which are more oriented to a aestetic appeal than to a more realistic approach. This is a good figure of an Eurasian griffon vulture so it should follow a matching color layout.

I would say the main difference between the two first versions wasn't the colours, even if the change is obvious, it is the material used to make the legs. The first series was too soft and the law of gravity won the battle, and the vulture slumped forward as time went by.
For the colour, I think I prefer the two older versions

There's an announcement for their grizzly getting updated paint work now too.

Mojo is well known for multiple paint work updates on figures- but they've never had an official announcement of it like these. That's the part that worries me- I would think that they *have* to have at least some truly new items no? I understand there's isn't a lot of enthusiasm for the brand here but I am hoping for their success still. They had some great items once- but I agree that they seem to be a changed company in their vision for the brand.

Mojo seems to be prioritizing children with their current strategy, including repainting existing models for this market. They might also be preparing to unveil new models following these repaints.

Well, all of the companies should be focusing on children as that is their primary consumer market. And yes, that's what I am hooing they are doing is showing the repaints off first and then will move into they're new products.

I would even be happy to watch a new model with an old painting

It's not impossible, what about a Picasso bug?

...even a new model to paint at home... And if they want to make an interesting, notable (and necessary) repaint, they can work on the *flamingo.

*By the way, have these two poses been manufactured? or just the one with the straight legs?

Only the straight legged pose has been manufactured.

Thanks for the info

Naw man, are they even trying?

is it worth to replace these figurines with old ones?

I really appreciate the new painting of the eagle's feathers, but I think the talons could be painted better. If they work on improving the appearance of the talons, this figurine would be worth purchasing.

Please do no hurry, improving the talons is on the top secret Mojo roadmap probably planned for the next year

Great point

I hope that Mojo won't be limiting itself to facelifts this year.

Well, they could make a little facelift to the fennec fox since it is an excellent sculpt needing a better color.
