They look awesome! I personally wish the Mirror Lion-o was outside of the main 4 figures, but am thrilled for the folks who really wanted him (Iâd have just rather had another good guy in the wave instead). Cannot wait for that Hammerhand!

Wahoo wahoo!
Was really hoping for Bengali, elated he comes with ârockerâ wrist set of hands.
I told myself I was only going to buy the core mutants and the 'cats, but that Hammerhand has presence.
Cool. Pile of lootâs going to bursting at the seams with data⌠But no actual toys yet. Which is fine. My wallet says itâs fine.

I thought we were also going to see something âspecialâ this wave like the silverhawks throne? Maybe there is more to come or maybe they changed their minds.
In any case itâs cool to finally see the reveal. I was hoping for a Lunatak, but thatâs OK. The only one Iâm not sure on buying is the red Lion-o.

Pretty basic wave, nothing too crazy here but they all look good. I am as desperate for a Vultureman as I am a Cheetara. He looks really well done. No Snowmeow yetâŚno Mandora or Wizz-Ra or anything really out of left field. I hope they can do them before the line loses steam as the main ThunderCats are done other than Kittens and Snarfs. I really hope wave 6 contains a Lunatak. I want them much more than the Berserkers.

I was really hoping for a Lunatak too, but itâs nice they started the Berserkers, and Hammerhead looks amazing. I didnât think the red Lion-O would be part of the actual wave, but he looks great, hopefully weâll get a pinless updated regular Lion-O at some point too. Vultureman & Bengali are perfect! Love all the accessories. I thought Mandora was going to be shown, as so many people were mentioning her.
Bring on the Lunataks next!

Pre-ordered Bengali, Hammerhand & Vultureman. Disappointed there isnât a cartoon character, but seeing Hammerhand this early takes the sting out for me a little bit. Both of the âcartoon onlyâ figures theyâve done so far are Mumm-ra disguises, so Iâm very eager to see more from the toon!
Bengali looks great.
Lion-O on MOTUC buck still doesnât look great and even worse compared to new figures.
Vultureman is completely put of scale.
Hammerhandâs pants and belt are completely wrong compared to the cartoon and toy.

I think they look great and pre-ordered them all.

I ordered the entire wave, even though I donât really care about Mirror Lion-O. Iâm not sure why Vultureman is so tall! Was he that tall in the cartoon.
I lost my real cat of 17 years today, so Iâm pretty sad right now. I was waiting for this reveal but didnât care due to the circumstances.

I found an image of all the mutants together from the cartoon - vultureman should be the same height as jackalman, so average height. As much as i usually wrench on super7 about accuracy, i kind of like the idea that there could be a taller mutant to put behind the others in a display. Slithe in front, jackalman and monkian middle, vultureman in the back.
Iâm gutted for you about your cat, sincerely. 17 is a good run, i hope they werenât in too much pain in the last days. It sounds somewhat cliched, but you gave them an amazing life compared to out scrounging in the wild. So many cats have it so tough, youâre some form of a cat saint for taking them in and giving them a loved life. I didnât know them, but I hope theyâre resting easy on the other side. I hope youâre doing okay with it all, too.

Iâm also on the fence about Mirror Lion-O, but I do love the variant Claw Shields⌠As for Vultureman, the promo image of him holding the Super-Power Potion made me wonder if the scale was (accidentally) inspired by that episode, when he actually was taller and more menacing. Donât get me wrong, he looks amazing, but in my mind Vultureman is much more of a goof than a threat. I almost want an annoyed alternate head and that ridiculous pen-parasol from âThe Circus Trainâ to compensate. [emoji23]
I echo Ridetofightâs condolences. Itâs never easy to say good-bye. I hope 17 years of loving memories can offer some comfort, though.
Same here. I ordered the whole wave through BBTS
Donât you mean Hammerhead?

LOL that one employee with some knowledge of Thundercats isnât doing a great job.
Would have been cool if they had also given him an LJN inspired arm.
Sorry for your loss. I lost my 14 year+ cat last year to kidney problems last year. The first few months were hardest, but even now I miss her a lot. I hope you feel better.
A new wave is no substitute for a family member, but itâs at least something positive.

Thank you.
The crotch piece below the belt on Hammerhand should be yellow, good catch. I didnât notice it at first (and obviously neither did they - hope they correct it). Attention to detail is so important at these prices to keep the line successful.

Canât recall if it was here or elsewhere, but the âsuperpower potionâ that vultureman is holding is likely the reason for the size difference. Makes sense to me.
Also, over on the fwoosh boards veebs reported wave 5 is not fully revealed yet, so sounds like we still have that big reveal coming afterall.
Where was it mentioned exactly? I canât find it.
