Good to know you’re Thundercat savvy. That could have been embarrassing:)

Nice toys, if youve got a spare $800 for an 8inch toy! I was always under the impression these were from the LJN Rough Riders series. But im no ‘toy expert’.
Quote from TCL forum 2008:
This fist-pounder rough riders toy was an unproduced toy that was featured in the LJN Spring 1987 Toy Dealer catalog. There is also a rough riders toy for the thundertank and the feliner. The tag paragraph selling the toy are as follows;
ROUGH RIDER ASST.
The adventure continues…with ThunderCats Rough Riders vehicles. Two Good Vehicles - The Feliner with automatic flapping wings and the Thundertank featuring powerful pounding claws. There’s also an Evil Mutant Vehicle, the Fistpounder, with earth-shaking mechanical fists. Each vehicle has super high-traction tires and power to spare
The estimate on the items is $600-$800. This means, if someone bids $600 the item will sell. HH reserves are based on the lowest portion of the estimate.
While shown in the toy catalog, these items were not released to the market. They did, however, get very far along in their development.
Also Wayne, you may want to refresh your web browser and clear your cache… as this description was changed. STOMPERs were manufactured by Schaper toys. While there was some initial confusion from the client ( who also worked on the Stomper line)… it was quickly sorted out.
I would also like to remind folks that there are no hammer charged or bidder charges on these auctions… something that is pretty much standard in the industry. While some members may have found the estimates higher than they would have expected… it actually balances out the fees that would have been otherwise incurred.
