ThunderCats at New York Toy Fair!

where’s kit and kat? did i miss them?

Trying to get all the ThunderCats News onto one page HERE:

Sadly it seems you can only see them on a blurred picture on the back of lion-o’s card and one kit flying round the tower.

Back of the card of lion-o’s card was tygra,panthro,mummra,slythe,wilykit,wilycat and cheetara

We’d definately be grateful of any pics you can provide to us for the site :slight_smile: Thank you!

Yeah they just look like mock ups of what they envisage the figures of those to look like. It’s just to give the toy retail industry a rough idea of what the packaging will consist of. I bet it’s all subject to change slightly before the final release.

I’ll be at Toy Fair tomorrow. I’d be happy to let you use my photos as exclusive site photos.

Please more photos!!

Thank you very much for the coverage, you are doing a fabulous work!!

I AM IN LOVE with Lion-o Classic!!

Boy, he does look awesome

Okay, time for my $0.02 on the figures that interest me.

4" Lion-O looks better and better. Definite Grab along with Mumm-Ra (mummy).

4" Mumm-Ra (TEL) Not really wowing me. The wings could use some work and I hate those holes in his chest. It looks like you’d pull a rip cord thru there. Maybe that’s how his wings flap. His hips look wider in this version.

6" Lion-O. Gotta grab him. I love the retracted claw for the sword.

6" Mumm-Ra (TEL) Much better here. I hope he comes with non-feature wings or a cape. I geeked out over the joined king cobras. Way to kick it up a notch! I also like what they did with the bandages and I hope they paint the sculpted bandages above his bracelet for the final release. His claw shield is wicked and I love that his sword is Omens like. My favorite new toy so far and I can see myself playing with him the most. Lion-O second.

Hey guys, if you were able to provide us with photos that we could feature to accompany a story on the front page of this site that would be amazing! :thumbsup: I’d dearly love to be able to feature images of these new figures on the site but it would be bad “netiquette” to just swipe them from these other sites, if you guys were able to help that would be awesome! :slight_smile:

Feel free to e-mail any pics to Neil or myself (at least I’m assuming that this would be OK with you, Neil?) at our ThunderCats Lair addresses, and again, thank you guys so much for these kind offers! :thumbsup:

EDIT: Oh yes, and if you guys are able to send over any pics, please let us know how you’d like to be credited for them (e.g., by your forum username, real name, etc., etc.) and we’ll make sure that you get proper credit for providing them! Again (I’ll say it again for good measure) thanks so much! :slight_smile:

Take care… :slight_smile:

Figures.com has lots of pics of the Mezo Lion-O.

In close up he is even better than i expected him to be…
:thumbsup::liono

I KNEW THE EURO TOYFAIR WAS JUST A TEASER!! THAT MEZCO LION-O LOOKS AMAZING!!! CORRECT COLORS, EYES, HEIGHT, HAIR, EVERYTHING IS PERFECT!!! :thumbsup:

I really like the style & the sculpt is great…but that pose is horrible.
It looks so unnatural. If they wanted to do the sword up they should have at least had him looking up at it.

aw man im so gonna be broke, but worth it.

still can’t get over how much S-s-slithe looks like an orc from WoW or something. I’m hoping that maybe that’s just a helmet he wears in the show and perhaps we see him without it. The detail on that fig is pretty good though for a 4"

Thundercats was up against some stiff competition today from Mattel (MOTUC, Ghostbusters) and others I’m sure, but (and I’m honestly surprised I’m saying this) I think they took home the show today with this reveal!!

I might re-consider some BBTS pre-orders as I can see these possibly being tough to come by at first unless Bandai floods the shelves with them. Either way whatever I don’t get from BBTS I’ll be hounding retailers in my area night and day till the truck comes and I can sweep in and get the goods

Mezco Lion-O looks AMAZING!! :eek: Of all the ThunderCats products I’ve seen displayed at NYTF, that’s the one that’s got me most excited - I guess I’m an old-school fan first and foremost, but I just think the sculpt looks beautiful! :slight_smile:

I’ve no idea how I can afford him or where the hell I’d display him, but I may have to get one!! :slight_smile:

Take care… :slight_smile:

WOW Orcs don’t look like that.

I think the new Slithe looks kinda froggy.

MTV News got the full scoop on the “ThunderCats” toys from Bandai Marketing Director Brehan Maul this weekend.

See link for video interview.

Mr Maul is clearly nervous ..

WOW! Seeing it all in action looked amazing.
I’m so hyped for this line! Tomorrow I’ll see it all in person :slight_smile:

-Robb

He did a good job explaining everything though! Based on his appearance, he looks very young – like he grew up with ThunderCats…which is a very good thing!

So the line is launching in August…which is my birthday! I’m gonna have an awesome birthday! :slight_smile:

that’s why I had “or something” at the end of the sentence

Also, frogs don’t have tails.
