New 6" Classic toy line from Mattel!

One of the nicest piece of Thundercats art work I have seen. :liono

Yes, that’s true. That other piece of artwork with the ThunderCats (sans WilyKit) in one spot and Cat’s Lair and Mumm-Ra (in Ever-Living mode) looming over them is equally memorable. :3

@Mark M

Cat’s Lair would be awesome as it is a very iconicpiece. Mumm-Ra’s Crypt and Castle Plundar are still long shots. I think we will get the Thundertank and some of the smaller one pilot vehicle and beasts before Cat’s Lair even become a possibility.

I wonder if even the New Thundera Cat’s Lair is on Mattel’s list?

I highly doubt it

I do hope we get the Thundertank AND the Fist Pounder too! But it would’ve been super awesome to get the Feliner and the Thunderstrike. And at least that glider that Chilla flew with.

The Ice Runner. That’s the name of Chilla’s vehicle. :3

I used to have that image on a T-shirt.

Due to the costs etc I honestly can’t see may of the large vehicles like the Feliner being done. Realistically, even the Thundertank is asking a lot. A Classics scale Thundertank would be awesome but as long as it was like the cartoon and not just an update of the old toy which was drastically undersized. If we get a Classics Thundertank it would need to have two seats in the front and a big section in the back to hold at a couple of figures along with the laser gun.
MOTUC has not had any vehicles near that size or scale. Just updates of a couple one seat vehicles. I suppose it could be argued that the Battle-Ram seats two… but none of the larger vehicles from MOTU have been updated. In fact I don’t even recall the vintage MOTU line having any large vehiles that carried more than 1 figure like Thundercats had with the Thundertank and the Fistpounder.
I recall they tried doing a Ecto-1 in scale with their movie figures but it didn’t reach its sub limit. Frankly though Mattel’s Ghostbuster line was awful in my opinion. Aside from being very over priced the face sculpts were awful. Thankfully the upcoming DST Ghostbusters look vastly superior in every way. Hopefully they can do an in scale Ecto-1 for their figures.

@Daremonger

Sweet!

I was about four or five then. Even when I out grew it I still kept it for many years. Sadly I don’t have it any more. But I do own three Thundercats T-shirts now.

I really think Mattel is going to release the Thundertanks just because is the main vehicle (Character) that made almost every episode ever listed in the Thunderacts cartoon so I say Yes this would be made without a shadow of a doubt.

The ThunderTank is my most favorite ThunderCat vehicle. ^-^

@adssse

Haha, see the Lunataks are one of my definite wants from the new line. They were a huge part of the latter half of the series.

Yes. The Lunataks are the best.

[Daremonger]

@Ocean Doot

Yes. The Lunataks are the best.

More could’ve been done with the Lunataks, I’ll admit, but they were still entertaining nevertheless.

[Ocean_Doot]

Is there a Lunataks appreciation thread? If not, I’ll start one.

Go for it!

[Sebastiaan]

@Daremonger

Go for it!

Oh yea, I agree! I just love the way they entered the cartoon. Even though I only saw it about 7 or 8 years ago for the first time, it still impressed me very much.

LOL, if you start one I don’t think I will be posting on it much. Chilla was pretty cool, I liked her…but not the rest.

@Ocean Doot

Yes. The Lunataks are the best.

Yes, I liked it a lot but I want to see a continuity in the action figure release… Remember Lunataks came at the end of season 1 so I want to see their figures after the Mutants and core Thundercats release.
