The Mafia Animals（TMA）| High-end NFT collection of Japan’s top creator

What is The Mafia Animals

The Mafia Animals (TMA) is an NFT collection founded by an illustrator, Rii2 (Ritsu). As the name suggests, the theme is “Mafia-looking Animals.”

This design has a cool Italian mafia feel, with portraits of animals dressed as mafia members.

The recent NFT trend is generative art, but TMA is all about original characters full of personality. Completely original NFT art, only one of its kind in the world.

At the time of writing this, 43 characters have been introduced. In the early days, they were sold on a first-come, first-served basis. However, it is now well known as an NFT that cannot be bought even if you want to, because it is sold one by one in auction or offer styles.

Owning a TMA NFT earns you an executive title in the “TMA Family” community.

4, high rarity

Since the TMA NFT collection was created in October 2021, and as of November 2022, there are only 43 of them. Even when sold, it is not unusual for them to be priced at over $10,000 at auctions. Their originality and positioning as high-end NFTs make them rare.

TMA will sell generative NFTs as a sub-collection. Their goal is to expand the TMA worldview and create an NFT collection that attracts a large number of people. Game elements are also likely to be incorporated, which will draw even more attention in the future.
