The Mojo Tasmanian Devil measures: 1.5" T x 2.7" L.
This Mojo Tasmanian Devil was first released by Mojo in 2023 and is a small marsupial model with a BIG bite. This figure is in the defensive pose, mouth open wide firmly planted on its four adorable little paws. With its mouth open, the teeth are clearly visible. A small figure with a good overall design, the mouth is painted well, but the rest of the paint job is sometimes sloppy. Overall an accurate and acceptable little devil model.
Tasmanian devils are carnivorous marsupials native to the island of Tasmania in Australia. They are the largest living carnivorous marsupials, reaching a size similar to a small dog.
Tasmanian devils have a stocky and muscular build, with a round head, powerful jaws, and sharp teeth. They are known for their aggressive and ferocious nature, which is reflected in their name. They emit loud and eerie screeches, growls, and snarls, especially when feeding or feeling threatened.
Tasmanian devils are scavengers and opportunistic hunters, feeding on a variety of food sources including small mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, and carrion. They have strong jaws and teeth capable of crushing bones, allowing them to consume the entire carcass of their prey.
In recent years, Tasmanian devils have faced a severe threat due to a contagious and deadly disease called devil facial tumor disease (DFTD). This disease has caused a significant decline in their population and poses a major conservation challenge.
