I hope all you vinyl Figure and comic book fans out there like what me and the folks at Mondo have put together for you. It was a blast to work on." – James Groman"
"James Groman is a big part of the reason I decided I wanted to make toys. Madballs were my absolute favorite toys when I growing up. When I heard that there was a chance to work with James I was instantly on board. After getting to work with James, I can't say enough about his talent, generosity and overall great attitude. I feel very lucky to now be able to call one of my heroes my friend. Also, If you don't know James insane work in the Soft Vinyl/Sofubi world do yourself a favor and do a deep dive. Mind blowing stuff" – Mike Bonnano, Creative Director Toys and Collectibles."
