Finally a Thundercats thread thumbup.gif

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.. sad.gif sad.gif

Yeah, too bad that the toys r only available in northern america...
Bandai should bring it into Asia, m sure that the sales will b pretty good since a lot of the young adults grew up watching those legendary cats...

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

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

Exactly, since the new Thundercats toy line is under Bandai, it is bound to come here sooner or later..
So no need for panic buying..

I've watch upto ep.5..
Love the way, they develop the characters especially Lion O...he no longer use the Thunder, Thunder Thunder, Thundercats.... HOOO!!! call to bail him out of trouble... unlike the 80's Lion O.

Love the tweeks they make on this new series....like Tygra using more of gun (instead of whip), change of Tygra's costume, and how Panthro resembles a 'sumo' wrestler.

I'm Lovin It

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 sweat.gif

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 laugh.gif

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

I think d new figures based on 2011 version r only available in 4inches n 6inches size...seen it on youtube, d 6inches one isn't bad at all biggrin.gif

But of course wud prefer d larger 8inches tall type tongue.gif
*
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.. sweat.gif sweat.gif

guys a friendly reminder

try to talk more on toys rather than more to the anime/cartoon

this thread should be more on the collectibles while the anime can be talk in anime section of the forum

thanks
*
Right, no more cartoon talk here! sweat.gif

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 sweat.gif

EDITED: removed pics request.. sweat.gif

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. hmm.gif
