Finally a Thundercats thread

The new series has been airing since late July, every Friday evening in US. Now at episode 7. The new character designs are awesome, and the new Thundertank design is superb in the cartoon.

Unfortunately, the new toy line by Bandai is somewhat lacking (e.g. Deluxe figures like Lion-O, no articulations compared to his 4" fig, Cheetara's hip articulation differs from the others) based on reviews done by people on Youtube. Even worse, the new toy line is only for sale in US and Canada, based on feedback by major online sellers like Bigbadtoystore..

I emailed Bandai about this a few weeks back. No reply so far, which means we're not getting it, can keep on dreaming

Unless someone orders from overseas and sells here, which will result in higher prices

It's under Bandai America to be exact. Whether the show and the toy line will make it to Asia in the future, who knows..we can only remain optimistic..but if you want the toy line now, then online is the only place to get it..

Their overall designs are better imo. No more swimsuits fashion. And especially Snarf, no more annoying talking mascot

If you've not been watching it, you'd better do so ASAP.

Based on interview with the Thundercats development team, in episode 7, there were scenes showing characters from 2 different classic cartoons, namely Silverhawks and Tiger Sharks. I don't really remember much about Tiger Sharks, but I remember Silverhawks were pretty cool

OT a bit, so apologies for that. Can't wait for next episode..they've not introduced Jackalman and Slithe yet.

6" has better articulation based on the vid reviews..but 6" only for Lion-O, Mumm-ra (wing-less) and Panthro..plus, no vehicles for 6" figures.

I'd get a 6" Lion-O and 4" everyone else + vehicles if available here..

Right, no more cartoon talk here!

If the figs were available here, we'd probably see the 4" ones going for around RM40-50. If only they were available here....buy in cases

EDITED: removed pics request..

There're plans to release more next year I think..they have yet to release Mumm-ra's other henchmen, Jackalman and Slithe. Maybe they'll release the Cat's Lair playset and Storm Charger too next year.

Sorry I didn't see the 1st page, pics blocked by office network

Oh snap they have it???

Seems Bandai UK will release the toys there in December while Germany will get it next year. No news for Asia so far..and I'm not gonna wait till next year to get them..

If you get the 4" or 6" figs, please do let me us know

Where'd you get these from? Ebay? I am very jelly you now
