Whatever the production costs on boxing him are, I am sure EM have made profit on it. If they haven't, they probably make up costs with other figurines they have produced to cover it.<br /><br /><br />Surely showing the extra lengths they are willing to go to, to make sure we get an undamaged figurine should be applauded.LAWayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10799064595287606916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-40846627306146839692012-08-01T08:45:03.430+01:002012-08-01T08:45:03.430+01:00Hats off to EM if they pull off delivery in one pi...Hats off to EM if they pull off delivery in one piece.<br /><br />I cant stand Mojo, in the same way I cant stand MODOK, Arnim Zola and Strong Guy. Just too freaky looking for my tastes.<br /><br />I'm going to wait until EM announce the final special before deciding on Mojo. If the last ones Strong Guy I wont have a 100% collection regardless so may as well skip this monstrosity too. Fingers crossed its Rocket/Groot or Skurge.TheTooNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345634712290905707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-80920634346236480932012-08-01T07:29:12.611+01:002012-08-01T07:29:12.611+01:00Lots of people have been on here in the past criti...Lots of people have been on here in the past criticising EM for poor character choices that have resulted in the downfall of the collection, looking at Blake's photo I can only agree.<br /><br />Look at all the extra lengths EM have had to go to to package Mojo. Huge polystyrene box and what looks like a cardboard box to put it in.<br /><br />Somebody somewhere should have stepped in and said it was too expensive, and for Mojo?

As soon as it was confirmed the CMFC was done, I asked for him, Brother Voodoo, Phyla-Vell, Smythe and Jimmy Woo.<br /><br />My fingers are crosses SO hard for Groot and Rocket...

Some I love, some I have forgotten & some I admittedly was unfamiliar with but I hope you have a way that I can still see it after this blog ends. <br /><br />I think you did a good job showing how Lockjaw could be done as a figure. I notice you use Bowen busts for the top half of some figures & Bowen whole statues like Mystique for a few as well.<br /><br />I like how you have The Unicorn in his more modern costume. He would have made a fine figure.<br /><br />You have The Melter in his original costume. How about doing his costume when he was in the second Masters of Evil with Klaw, Radioactive Man & Whirlwind. I really regret not having Whirlwind & The Melter as figures.<br /><br />You have Molten Man with flames but that look only occurred when he was burning up. Usually he is just all golden.tinodragon14https://www.blogger.com/profile/17439998267379440488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-6885405235232388562012-08-01T04:22:42.412+01:002012-08-01T04:22:42.412+01:00Have to admit from Blake's pics of the mojo fi...Have to admit from Blake's pics of the mojo figure that it does look like the silly, creepy creature in the comic books. Those fans of this character have to be pleased with Dan & the gang's work & it only makes me hope SKURGE will be a special but also makes me wonder how great other figures I liked would have looked in the special category like DRAGONMAN & Titanium Man as well as Archangel, Destroyer, Lockjaw, etc.tinodragon14https://www.blogger.com/profile/17439998267379440488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-90273145638921677152012-08-01T02:44:53.093+01:002012-08-01T02:44:53.093+01:00Blake I used to enjoy looking at your virtual gall...Blake I used to enjoy looking at your virtual gallery,now I hate it!

The character's representation is perfect, like he's come out of the comic book pages. And the production technique is at the highest standard, like a mini version of a Bowen piece. The packaging is also top quality, as the figurine comes in a polystyrene package inside <br />a strong cardboard box. <br /><br />Here you can see the<br /><a href="http://virtual-cmfc-a-z-gallery.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">MOJO PICTURES</a><br /><br />An awesome figurine, a fantastic addition to the CMFC, imo.BLAKENEWMAN2002https://www.blogger.com/profile/06824404277463421677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-15557117136070965122012-07-31T21:24:58.557+01:002012-07-31T21:24:58.557+01:00My dream 10 would be:

I recall Dan mentioning back when we were first informed that there wasn't going to be another extension,that he was almost sure that we would be getting one,so most likely characters were already being considered for said extension.

Sure is a shame we didn't get Jackal so that all of the characters in the intro mag would have been done (I don't really care for or count Aunt May).<br /><br />Can't wait to see whom EM picks as the next special. (I like saying next and not final) If it's Skurge or The Destroyer I'll throw myself a little party. If it's Archangel or Lockjaw I'll be pretty pleased. If it's Strong Guy,I might manage a grin,and if it's Groot.....I'll probably cry.Thor8https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531778820407023091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-66426479499379510972012-07-31T20:14:02.459+01:002012-07-31T20:14:02.459+01:00With Dan letting slip that Jackal was going to be ...With Dan letting slip that Jackal was going to be 201, surely there must have been talks about YOUR dream extensions in the office.<br /><br />We see many dream lists from the fans, but would be great to know what we could have ended up seeing if you had your way.LAWayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10799064595287606916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-86983649747405697932012-07-31T19:32:58.198+01:002012-07-31T19:32:58.198+01:00OOft!
