ThunderCats Classics by Mattel

[JonWes]

I'm bummed the animated look is overtaking these figures so much, to be honest. I would have preferred more of a MOTUC approach as they originally envisioned where it was more of a blend of animation, toy, and extra detail. They still look amazing, but I liked the other direction better.

she looks the same to me? only shorter?

I'm not going to nitpick these guys unless they look like crap... All the protos look amazing to me! Particularly Jackalman!! Cannot wait to see a 4H Ssslithe!!!

Did you guys see Matty made some changes to Pumyra? Mattel Thundercats Pumyra Update - The Toyark - News
I wish they would make the effort to make sure Lion-O was more screen accurate.

Bandai came pretty close IMO with the glove and colors

 

[Animal Mother.]

I think due to the fact that it's going to be harder to do part reuse in this line with such diverse looking characters (safari Joe, Hachiman, etc), so imo there will be more bang for the buck in this line that there was in MOTUC.

The Bandai on looks horrible. It's the worst part of the figure. Mezco did the best version.

I agree the sculpt is better on the Mezco but the claw shield is supposed to be reflective

 

[Jedi_Knight]

Well yes and no. In the cartoon it does reflect but it also appears at times to be fur.

Anyone else have problem with Matty's website.

 

[Black Knight]

I did it
Actually 1st subscription I bought to date .... All figures just look amazing to me ... I don't want to miss out on the Cat core group ... And so interested in seeing what they do with the Lunatacs .

I think that is a common statement for most people at least once.


I really hope they show off something unexpected at SDCC. Mad Bubbler or Red Eye would be really cool.

I hope they address if they have SilverHawks and TigerSharks rights and how expansive the line can go (Dogs of War characters? New show characters?)

I subscribed It's going to be a long wait till December!
ThunderCats played a big part in childhood. I loved watching the cartoon! I only had a few figures; Lion-O, Snarf, Wily-Kit, Wily-Kat & Mumm-Ra the Ever Living.
In 1994 I was able to buy a lot more on clearance, but I sold most of them again a few years later out of frustration because I had no way to obtain Cheetara...
In 2009 I got back into ThunderCats collecting. I have a near complete collection of the LJN action figures.
If the Mattel ThunderCats will last long enough to remake all of the classic LJN's; I might sell my LJN's in favor of these new ones because I love the details and articulation.

Color-wise is a bit tricky... I've seen art and episodes with different shades of blue-purple for the outfit, and I am happy with the current color.

Why's this Mumra an exclusive? Will there be a repaint for the regular edition or something?

 

[jankatana]

As a total noob to the line, i have to say these figurss would fly off the shelves in the UK if they stocked at HMV or Forbiddenplanet, the subscription idea is very weird to say the least. Id consider it personally but its already sold out? The only option would be a pricey secondary market, what a way to make collecting very difficult. Sorry for my ignorance on this subject, but it could all be done so much easier. Crazy Mattel!

 

[Zodach]

With the exception of Mumm-Ra (mummy form) every figure will be available for sale on Matty Collector to non-subscribers. The only difference is that the figures will be priced at $30 each instead of the subscriber price of $25 each.

 

[jankatana]

Thank you Zodach, i didnt know that, much appreciated

 

[Kuzeh]

So Mattel just said that 2017 will be a 6 figure sub plus the exclusive figure... It'll take a while to complete this line methinks...

 

[Dollmanron]

A lot easier on the wallet though.
