European Figures general faults...

Collecting LJN ThunderCats Toys

Now since ìm up to my ears with TC myself latley I´ve come noticing the Fig´s they sold round here in Germany tend to look alot different then the ones from USA or UK which makes me wonder whether or not the european production was either sloppy or faulty.
Example :

grune from germany lacks the red color on his legs. See :

And it´s not worn of over the years I own this grune since my youth and the dude´s been that way since I´ve bought him.

Pumyras weapon :

Colored like Tygra´s Whip.

Another one would be Jackalman (a shame I don´t have pic´s of it nomore) but I can asure 100% Jackalman was sold without his shouldstrap round here. Sure, that makes a great and definetly seldom variant (if still moc) but, how come those fig´s seem to differ that much from US or Uk productions ? Or is it a general problem with european productions in this toyline ?

Your definately right :wink: A lot of the Euro released Thundercats have quirky differences to either paint applications or weapons.

Infact I have a MOC German Tygra with a completely different whip and his face painted differently. The MOC’s are definately cool to collect!

The Pumyra variation would be a very cool one to find MOC!

Grune may be missing his red pants, but I like it. It actually makes the figure look better, more uniform. It’s interesting how the Europeans can tweak an idea, and in the case of the Grune figure, it worked. :slight_smile:

The Panthro made for the UK has considerably lighter nun-chucks in color as opposed to its American counterpart. Panthro’s paint applications are great but the weapons look a bit anemic. :panthrohappy: Their Bengali sure is prettier than ours. :bengali:
