| It is time to present the last Mojo Fun 2012 release. This is a figure particularly important to me! The Iberian lynx is a magnificent feline that lived in all Iberian peninsula and today are less than 300 individuals left in the wild. Less than half of the members of this forum! Something to think about! The most endangered cat species of the world is being reintroduced in Portugal, with the remarkable work of the Institute for Nature Conservation and Biodiversity and other Organisations. There's a conservation program trying to prevent that this beautiful animal desapears completly from the wild and that it turns not only in a sad memory for next generations, our children! :) It's a pleasure to know that Mojo Fun will publish in their catalogue the work developed for these Institutions and that the brand, altough very young, is studying a way to give a little contribution to help this noble work. These brands are perfect educational tools for children and I'm really glad seeing a brand that can see more than finantial results! I hope 2012 Mojo catalogue would represent a good example for other brands! I want to say thanks to all members that participated in the review of this figure as well to Mojo Fun that gave us the chance of seeing such a beautiful species! In the last stage the brand had also the input of some conservationists and you can see the result! in www.icnb.pt you can find more information about the Portuguese Institute, how to support it and also information about the species. Iberian lynx, Number 387064, Woodland series, size Medium, January 2012 You can see more pictures and detailed information later in Mojo Fun Facebook A big thanks to Mr. James to be brave enough to put in Mojo range such an unknown species and make my personal dream true!!! |

| It's GORGEOUS. This will have to be a Lynx in Sheep's Clothing, because i am definitely getting one! Crocobert, you sly fox, talking about wishing for an Iberian Lynx knowing this beautiful, fantastic, amazing creature was waiting for us! This might be the best animal figure ever! it has everything: accuracy, action, character, and beauty! i believe that all children will love this figure and want it. Mr. James! I want my Mojo Lynx! _________________ carolynn

| Thank you very much! One little disease could destroy all efforts of saving those magnificient bunny-killers. It was even more a problem to save the last specimens as it doesn't seem to be easy to work across the spanish/portugese frontier i guess? The most unusual cat species of europe. Brilliant model although i don't like the spots. |

| Brilliant figurine, a real must-have!!! I hope it will contribute somehow to the lynx preservation program you mentioned, Roger.
So, should we remove this species from our 2013 wish-lists voting? _________________ Owners of miniature zoos on shelves, unite! My collector's blog

| I think head cold be tad bit bigger, but generally I love his sculpt It looks really good when compared to photos of real Iberian lynxes. Paintjob could be better, though. Another item on my ever-growing wishlist _________________ ~Magda (formerly Mangalarga) Blog | Facebook |

| Mojo will make my day again I like very much this lynx It remember me what I love in the PAPO lynx. I know PAPO lynx is a bit off but I like the way it is moving, like a... Lynx This one is walking like a lynx and is absolutely not off I was waiting it for a long time now. Now I need to find a good place where I can buy this one and a lot of MOJO in 2012 |

| @ Silvia: I'm really glad you like the lynx, I'm sure that the previously called Spanish lynx is as important for you than it is for me. @ Andreas: ...a new species for you??? ...also for me! @ Carolynn: I'm asking for an Iberian lynx even before you starting here as a member! It was my number 1 choice for Mojo 2012. @PeJe: You are right, no rabbits, no lynxes! The spots are based in a kind of coat common in Doñana population, it's absolutly impossible to make better in mas production in such a small figure! @ Skigle: Mojo is relatively easy to find in USA so I hope you will find it. @Kiril: Yes, those who voted in the Iberian lynx to 2013 should change their vote. About media related to the species I'll post it for all people here. The Iberian lynx will have a special place in STS and also in Mojo FB! @Susanne: I know how special this cat is for you, he has a little siamese genes in it, don't you think? @Magda: I know what you mean, we already discussed here a lot about the little heads of lynxes! But you'll see it is a good size for an adulte. About the painting is the best possible as I replied to PeJe, I hope next year to see some talented repaintings featuring the pattern from Sierra Morena! @Kiki: Yes, you're right, Papo and Mojo lynxes are very lynxish! Not only catish! I agree, I also need to find a way to buy Mojo! @Miguel: You're welcome, you are the Iberian lynx of our forum, be careful trying to make a family with Mojo lynx since it is a male! @Harriet: Another Mojo figure with a little Harriet touch! @Robert: European Fauna, European fauna, I know someone dreaming with honey badgers and servals, but there are also wonderful animals in our continent! I am a wonderful animal! @Joan: Mojo thinks that it is their best figure and they have all in their hands. Now it is time to collectors see them in real life and make their judgement. |
