Thundercats Ultimates Wave 5 ? Bengali, Vultureman, Hammerhand, Mirror Lion-O

That Lion-O feels more like it should be a convention exclusive than taking a space in the main line.

Where are Kit and Kat.

Another winning lineup. I actually don't care for the Mirror Lion-O, but ecstatic to be getting Vultureman and Bengali. Hammerhand looks really good, too! I had that figure as a kid.

There was supposed to be some sort of vehicle or accessory as well in this wave (similar to Mon*Star's chair). No word on that?

If that is the case, then I hope Bengali's forge isn't it.

I'll take that Vultureman, thanks.

Who is Mirror Lion-O? An evil version ala Anti He-Man?

Any talk of a Cat's Lair?

Nevermind, I just red the description about Mirror Lion-O.

Sadly Bengali and Vultureman will be my last two Thundercats Classics/Ultimates purchases. Basically these two complete the LJN collection I had as a kid and anything after this would be just FOMO/Completionism which is a road I don't need to travel down in regards to my collection.

Still need Wilykit, Wildcat, Safari Joe, Mongol, Taska Warrior, Ratar-O, Berbil Bill and Sanrf of course.

Like a lot of others I'm done with this line as of this wave getting the core cast and the "new" cats completed. But that Hammerhand does look really really cool and I'm seriously tempted to grab him

Kids and Snarf. I do have the Mattel kids tho. I'm sticking with the early core heroes and villains only for a final display.

Also Hachiman, Captain Shiner, the rest of the Berserkers (Cruncher, Ram-Bam, and Top Spinner), and if they go this deep, maybe the Ram-Pagers too (Driller, Stinger, and the infamous unproduced Mad Bubbler).

I'm still curious when and how they plan to offer Snarf and the 3 Berbills. Ideally one of each should have been included with the previous figures just like how Ma-Mutt was included with the transformed Mumm-Ra. So what is Super 7 waiting on? Snarf especially is a key character that should have already been offered with Lion-O. Maybe if they do a young Lion-O figure, Snarf can be included with him.

i'll keep going with this line as long as super7 is making them.

btw the original design for mirror lion-o shouldve had blue hair

Same here. 2 of my favorites are here so I am quite excited. I want quite a few more.

I feel the same way.
I wonder if regular Lion-O along with the other Cats will get rereleased with pinless...
If this was at $20 a figure I would have gotten the mirror Lion-O to custom regular Lion-O with pinless but alas.

Vultureman, Bengali and Hammerhand are all awesome additions!
I'm looking forward to continue collecting the line but will cherrypick out new variants at $55 a figure... thus far that leaves out the mirror Lion-O, and Pumm-Ra.
For the sake of the line these type of characters should most definitely be convention exclusives imho...

I dunno why but i like the red lion o. For some reason it just looks better.

Jay on his TNI youtube video mentioned that originally a 5th figure with a VEHICLE was rumored to be included with this wave but got pulled. Anyone know who and what that was supposed to be?

Man, Super 7 just really needs to stop releasing images of prototypes or 3D models and friggin just put the actual products out there. Tygra has been delayed by almost 2 years now, what is up with that ?!! If they have the time to work on new products maybe they should focus on delivering the goods. There's no excuse, not even Covid or the delays in factories etc, not when other companies like McFarlane Toys and even Mafex (!) have managed to release their products worldwide.

Its simply unacceptable at this point. The preorder means I am paying good money, that I wont be able to use short-term, for a product that will come 2 years later !! All the meanwhile, who knows what can happen to you or anyone.....
/end rant

You could always preorder them through big bad toystore or entertainment earth, you dont necessarily have to preorder directly from s7.

But yeah, pretty much agree with your rant but I'm already past the point of caring anyway lol.

I saw somebody say before on another site that Super7 makes their Thundercats at another factory than the TMNT stuff, which is why they keep pumping them out but Thundercats keep getting delayed forever. And they don't have access to scans from some previous figures hence the no shows of WilyKit and WilyCat.

I dunno. I'm starting to get more and more tired of Super7's Ultimates, especially after that waxy skinned disgrace that was April and my Bebop and Rocksteady unable to actually fit their accessories in their friggin hands.

I never got their She-Ra (couldn't afford the secondary markup for it) so I'm not sure if April was only a one off issue, or their female figures just suck. The fact that Pumiyra keeps being pushed back and Cheetara flat out was nixed until sometime next year due to "quality control" issues is scaring me off a bit. Especially with pulling the trigger on Lady Jaye and Baroness.

I preordered the first Silverhawks wave from their website but for the next one I was so annoyed at their "behavior" that I preordered through a local shop (they required a small 10% deposit). I ve forgotten when I preordered Tygra...... Honestly, I wouldnt care much either but at some point, us customers have to just speak up when enough is enough. And all I keep hearing from their interviews at the Fwoosh channel is excuses, while they NEVER reply to any FB comments.
Really bad attitute towards customers....

:/

Damn.... I ve never heard of those QC issues. Man, I m telling you if Tygra ends up having even the slightest problem, after two years into realization, I am sending it back to them and requesting a friggin refund !

The new Lion-O inherited the Mattel figure issues again (abs gaps and shorter height because the compacted center pieces), the translation at the digital sculpt should've been from the 4H resin prototype with better proportions and not from the atrophied Mattel figure.

Fix it please Super7!
