The Official UK Thundercats Toy Sightings Thread

The TRU at Meadowhall Retail Park is a good 15-20 min walk from the main Meadowhall centre. But it can be done by foot if you don’t mind the walk.

Damn! I didn’t go in Primark. Ah well, I might be going into Nottingham soon so will look then :wink:

Yeah I’m sure the one in Notts will have them mate.

I had no idea there was an Entertainer store in Meadowhall! Glad you mentioned it - I’ll have to go take a look :smiley:

We have tons of everything down south, but I have to admit im holding out for them to be on an offer.

Me too,

Seems America had offers after the figures were 2 months old-also I haven’t heard anything about wave 2 hitting the uk.

If anyone knows more than I do please share it :slight_smile:

The way the UK goes we could be in for a long wait for wave 2, they just don`t seem to be shifting off the shelves. A decent offer may give it the boost it needs.

Hey guys as i am browsing over your new Tcats toys,m which by the way they all look great, congrats for supporting the line, i keep thinking that i must be the only member in the forum who doesn’t have yet any fig from the Bandai line!!. I ma planning on visiting a few toy stores today but something tells i won’t find anything. Unfortunately.

Where should i ask for an upcoming release in Greece? or in South Europe generally?

If you need stuff I am happy to get you toys from the UK and ship them over dude. I don`t know what the releases have been like in Europe. My advice is to hold out for them to go on a offer then you will get more toys for your money.:liono

Hy Dom!! How u doin man!! Nice talking to you again after a while!

I really appreciate the offer, i really do my friend but i still miss the pleasure of purchasing Thundercats directly from the Toy shelves, as a kid i never had the chance of buying toys here in Greece and i can’t miss the opportunity 26 years later. so i am thinking of waiting a little bit longer, maybe till Easter.

But i am afraid that due to the financial crisis here they might never make it:mad:.

Thanks a lot

Im good thanks my friend, been busy with boring stuff and didn`t have enough time for toys:mad:

I love hunting around the shops to get stuff, I still do it with Star Wars even thiough its cheaper to buy it online. The hunt is part of the fun of collecting.

If you get stuck, the offer is there. I will let you know if we get any crazy offers :smiley:

Morrisons (or at least my local one) has the basic wave 1 4" figures at £7 each. I think thats the best price I’ve seen them at in the UK? I picked up a Panthro.

They had tons of Decayed Form Mumm-Ra and Lion-O :rolleyes:, a couple Panthro and Tygra’s, a few of the Wily Kids and NO Cheetara’s! :frowning: I thought Cheetara was packed equal to Panthro?, so I can only assume they have sold all the Cheetara’s…

I’m definately holding out on Mumm-Ra and Lion-O because at some point they will have no choice, but to discount those! :smiley:

Yeah I think thats a safe bet on Mumm Ra

I went into The Entertainer at Nottingham today and found one lonesome Cheetara, so snapped her up! The overall display was basically one of those stand alone cardboard stands, containing quite a small offering of toys overall. However they had an even amount of the other 4" ThunderCats and a TON of Mumm-Ra! :rolleyes:

Classics they had only Tygra! So Lion-O must have completely sold out :slight_smile: They had a few ThunderTanks and Deluxe Sword of Omens. The 6" modern line they had all 3 and the 4" Deluxe line they were only missing Grune (so glad I picked him up before Christmas! :slight_smile: )

So the tricky ones to find over here in the UK so far seem to be Classics 8" Lion-O, 4" Grune and 4" Cheetara. Everything else seems to be widely available.

Although I’ve never seen the Tower of Omens in a store yet! So perhaps it has a very limited release over here? Wouldn’t surprise me given the price point/value for money.

Hamleys display

I was passing by Hamleys the other day… :slight_smile:

That looks awesome man! I’d really like to see this at the JUMBO Toystores here in Greece or Toys Academy;)

I’m afraid this is almost impossible. I contacted AS Company and Giochi Preziosi in Greece and both (Bandai) importers replied that they have no plans to release the toyline in Greece.

The economic situation is disastrous. The major toy stores are filled with bootlegs and surprisingly they have no dignity as they sell them in prices of originals!

Thats what i call a display!!!

Very cool indeed!

1)MAN I LOVE your LOGO,I do still have this issue! ΓΑΜΑΕΙ ΑΠΛΑ!!!

2)This is the worst news i’ve read. I was expecting an Easter surprise with plenty of new Thundercats on the market.As i have previously said i had asked myself a few major Toystores here in Greece and they simply didn’t know.I thought they just weren’t informed of a possible release date.But you are telling me now that there is NO possibility to ever come…It looks like my dream to buy Thundercats directly, fresh from toystores,hanging on the shelves will never become a reality, i didn’t make it back in THE 80s neither this time…:mad::frowning:

Thanks for the info anyway, i really hope that there is a change of plans.

You guys need to take a trip to us over in the uk to experience buying te figures for stores.

Sorry for the bad news-god bless eBay though!

And most of the Greek ebay sellers seem to have some pretty decent moc thundercats they sell anyway.

Say that again man!! It’s this damn crisis here it’s affecting everything..I am seriously thinking of packing my things and going to live abroad. Many young people sharing this idea..
I’ll wait till easter and then i’ll probablay try internet
