New Thundercats Toys from Bandai!

[guyver1]

Ok so I went to TRU and I bought a few of the 8" classics. Lion-O looks really good. Tgyra classics is ok but not that great looking. I really thought I would like the new 6" figures but upon looking at them against the 4" figures --- The 4" figures really do look alot better. The 6" figures just looked kind of cheap and Lion-O's head looked really fake wheras the 4" Lion-O head looked like the cartoon and more realistic. Also, the black peg joints stick out bad on the 6" figs. Mumm-ra 6" just looks bad. The thundertank is awesome so I think I will stick with 4" plus they are half the price.

which TRU?

I called my local TRU today and they said that they were sold out... They are starting to pop up on eBay, but alot of them are at double what they are at retail. I just hope they show up at the stores soon. I really like the look of the 4" figures. It would be cool if future waves had Jaga and Claudius.

I can't wait for these to hit here in Toronto Canada, i'm going to blow some cash on the 4'' line and get that deluxe Sword of Omens.

Hit up TRU, and pretty much all sold out minus the figure-vehicle packs and the Mezco Lion-O. Really want the classics figures.

Picked up the Mezco Lion-O and 6" 2011 Lion-O the other day in Charolette. The Mezco one is great, especially for the price, but the 6 inch Lion-O is definitely getting returned. Too many issues w/ it. The black pegs look awful in person and the double-jointed elbows don't help.

Meanwhile today I picked up the 4" version and a Classic Lion-O (finally! ). Seems Tygra was doing his invisibility thing though.
I was tempted to get Cheetara and a couple other four-inchers but I haven't watched enough of the show and honestly the vintage stuff is where my loyalties lie.

Enough BSing here's some pics!

Went and made a Wallpaper with the Classics Lion-o. Might do a bigger version or different poses later.

Outdoor pics FTW every time!!!

My buddy has these coming to his comic shop so I will of course buy from him but the wait is killing me!

Outdoor pics FTW every time!!!

Can't argue with that!

A couple more I copied over from my flickr. I love that the short SoO can be fit into the Clawshield and that they can be worn on the hip.

Quick pics of mine!!
They are not MOTUC by any means, but cool nonetheless!!
My only gripes, are the random color joints, and the weapons feel quite cheap...
SDCC Lion-O's swords are miles ahead of these flimsy ones...
bummer...
I hope eventually Cheetara's staff or Panthros nun-chucks are less bendy...

..... i think Lion-o needs some viagra.


Can anyone with the 6 inch new series line post pictures with some MOTUC figures?

Bandai Lion-O with Icon Heroes Mumm-Ra...
they look cool together!!

And with He-Man

Posted it a couple of pages ago...

 

[lerath666]

no, that's the 8 inch version, from the classic series.

I mean the six inch figure from the new cartoon.
With a MOTUC figure.

I think they will match up better scale-wise.

Yeah, I'd say they'd fit.

The wrist and ankle pegs really irk me as well. I was afraid of that when I heard Bandai got the liscense. I guess its better than black but only by a little. At least they don't have the peg showing through on either side of the shoulder.

I'm with you on the weapons as well. Lion-O sword started to warp just being outside yesterday. They're minor nits but Bandai needs to come a little better if the Classics are aimed toward colectors.

Mine came from a Toysrus in a town an hour away (my Daughter picked them up for me), my closest Toysrus is sold out. I don't know about any other retailers and it's probably too early to tell, but I hope this is a good enough sign to Bandai to make more characters.
