'''Mingy Jongo''' is a | '''Mingy Jongo''', subtitled "Crafty Shaman Impersonator", is the cyborg counterpart of [[Mumbo Jumbo]] and a character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series. Mingy Jongo is similar to [[Minjo]]s in that both are villains who resemble another character. The word "mingy" means to be mean and stingy. | ||

===''Banjo-Tooie''=== | ===''Banjo-Tooie''=== | ||
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' | In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Mingy Jongo appears as the boss of [[Cloud Cuckooland]]. In that world, there are two [[Mumbo Skull]]s; one is blue and one is red. The skull that Mingy Jongo and Mumbo Jumbo are each found in are randomized for each playthrough. The two Mumbo Skulls can be distinguished in that Mumbo's one has a Minjo, while Mingy's one has a [[Jinjo]] and does not have lit torches. Mingy Jongo is always found sleeping at first, unlike Mumbo, who is only asleep when [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] first encounter him near the start of the game. Lastly, when Banjo and Kazooie enter Mingy's skull prior to defeating him, no on-screen text of the location name is displayed. However, if Banjo and Kazooie re-enter Mingy's skull after defeating him, the text "Mumbo's Skull" is briefly displayed, despite the location being a replica. | ||
The boss fight starts as soon as Banjo approaches what appears to be a sleeping Mumbo Jumbo. As Mumbo wakes up, he says he has a surprise for Banjo (referring to him by name rather than "bear" like the real Mumbo Jumbo does). Banjo goes close to the fake Mumbo Jumbo, only to be blasted away, taking away one [[Honeycomb]]. The fake Mumbo's eyes turn bright red, and he introduces himself as Mingy Jongo. He seals off the stairs so that Banjo and Kazooie cannot escape. Because the battle takes place on the upper floor of Mingy Jongo's skull, it is the smallest battle arena of the game. | The boss fight starts as soon as Banjo approaches what appears to be a sleeping Mumbo Jumbo.

During the battle, Mingy Jongo attacks by creating a series of fast-paced energy bolts from his zap stick. If the bolts get close to Banjo, they can home in on him. The more damage Mingy Jongo takes, the more his robotic form is revealed. After four hits, Mingy Jongo starts to teleport away from Banjo during his attacks. Every so often, both abilities short out, and Mingy Jongo tries to recharge, giving Banjo and Kazooie a chance to strike him. | During the battle, Mingy Jongo attacks by creating a series of fast-paced energy bolts from his zap stick.

In ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', although Mingy Jongo himself does not physically make an appearance, an item called [[Mumbo's Head]] closely resembles his own head. | |||

If the duo are defeated without Mingy waking up, Mumbo's talk icon is used for the quote, "Do you want to play again?", likely because Mumbo's head icon was programmed to play first during the fight. | ||
