Your customs just get better and better! I love the likeness to the cartoon you have going on and I’d hope we get something similiar from official movie toys :slight_smile:

My only critism is I don’t like the noticable joints you seem to get on action figure these days. I know folks like many points of articulation, but sometimes they are so evident, they make the figure look ugly in some cases.

What a great-looking Panthro figure, rateeg!:smiley:

I do agree with blackie up to a point about the articulated joints, but I think it’s partially due to how the figures are lit for their pictures. When the light’s a little too unforgiving, it doesn’t show them at their best. And I don’t think rateeg had much choice when it came to the joints; they had to be big enough and movable enough so the Panthro figure could posed realistically. Some things just can’t be helped. :frowning:

DUDE, that is freakin’ awesome! :jaw:

Dude! These are killer! Can’t wait for Mumm-Ra! You’re Panthro looks older (and therefore wiser) than the original.

thanks folks!
about the awkardness of the appearance of the joints, i guess that’s the toy sculpter’s fault. though we give them big credits for having so much articulations for poseability.
poseable customs for me is much more better than buying the pre-posed figures cause they are just limited to just one or several poses only.

You’re welcome, rateeg. Do you have any more customized T-Cat figures to show us? :slight_smile:

So far the three Thundercats you have produced are amazing! Way better then the original LJN figures by far! Now Im VERY desperate to see more..especially Lion-O..the reason being because Ive always been on the lookout for a custom Lion-O whos hair is sculpted just right, since you seem to capture the essence of thier animated counterparts so well I think your Lion-O will be great. By the way, next time you post another custom how about having a pic with all the ones youve done so far side by side ^____^

I have to agree with everyone!!! This is somethign that i would like to buy in a store someday.

Do you cast your own figs or modify existing ones?
