Does Super 7 think they are Bandai and this line is part of the Figuarts one?

Out of all of the 80s toy line revivals, I have never seen any fanbase get fucked over as much as the Thundercats one. Is it any wonder why I stopped being one?
Some of this is true. If this line ends, which I don't think it will, the I think it will be the end of companies trying to do Thundercats. However, the Loyal Subjects stuff apparently did well.

As people said, PowerCon is this weekend, so hopefully they show off future figures, new molds. Give clarity on the future of the line. That is all I would have wanted at launch in addition to these even if it means waiting for these to come and go first.

If they didn't have access to Mattel's stuff, the Four Horsemen redid their original work to the T here, they are from a distance the same. Jaga / Grune would be in the same boat, whichever way it is.

That being said, I personally think they should be pushed farther down the road. Tygra, Cheetara, Slithe, Ever Living Mumm Ra. Get them out and then I'll consider going deeper roster. Until they are out I don't trust this line will ever complete the core. Nothing against Super 7, just TCPTSD (Thundercats Collector PTSD).
Well said. Its good they started this way. I have read some comments that people sold their old stuff off, so this gives them a chance to buy new stuff, and if you missed out u can get into it now. The new accessories are really nice and the new darker hair on Lion-O looks good. There was a suggestion made that the original line didn't sell well, and that is why it ended, but Mattel seemed to be moving away from doing 80s to lines a few yrs ago. I don't know. I'm just really really happy we are getting some figures. Transformers, MOTU, TMNT seems to have survived the 80s but not Thundercats. Its hard to believe that this line will fail, because if it does where do they go. There have to be at least enough fans to allow Super7 to do make to order stuff, because that is what they do. I think there was a Jaga done, Pumyra was done and there was another character that was shown off last year i think. I'm sorry I don't know my Thundercats as well as I should or as well as my Transformers.
