That's like me buying a car but not being able to afford gas or insurance unless the government kicks it in for me. Then I probably shouldn't buy the car at all.

We need to stop treating Super7 like they are some tiny kickstarter. If they want to be that, then start doing this shit as Haslab-style things.

Super7 is in the middle. They're not kickstarting stuff but they obviously aren't very big at all.

I think you're missing the point of this wouldn't exist otherwise. Nobody cares about this character, I literally have zero recollection of her and I've read others say the same. That's the price basically for them not to lose money on making the figure; and they think this figure at this price is better than no figure at all.

I'm fine with paying for stuff I'd never not normally get.

That's one reason he collects MotU Revelations because he's getting good figures and able to build up a nice collection of heroes and villains and have some fun collecting and playing with them without breaking the bank. And I know this one is a character he'd love to have if he could afford thundercats. He made a custom one of her years ago for his original vintage Cats.

Also is that just a render or something? I thought all the Thundercats figures have visible pin joints as they're based on the aging MotU Classics bucks and I don't see that on space cop lady here.

The Mirror Lion-O is pinless, they don't really rely 100% on that old style for the basis of their figures anymore. Most Ultimates don't go off of that now.
