For some reason I don't remember these figures in the stores when they first came out. However, I do now have an almost complete collection. This has got to be one of the coolest figure lines produced. Anyone own a Stinger or Driller figure? Check out the Thundercats figure gallery on the main site at www.action-figures.ca/thundercats.htm. I am currently adding more figures to it so keep checking back.

I just went to the value village on jefferson and they had a few in the showcase, loose and no parts, for $18.00 each. I did buy a bag of parts and some of the accessories were in there.

Sounds like Monkian's morningstar, Slythes halbred and Snowmans shield and helmet. I could use Monkians weapon. Lets do it Sunday afternoon at my house, then you can check out my collection as well. PM me and I'll get you my address.

On Ebay i just picked up a complete Jaga for CA$33.05 and complete Mongor for CA$12.50. Jaga came in last week and is in great C9 shape. I bought him from a seller in the UK and it arrived here super fast (it took a week so don't be scared to buy overseas). [Only a few more Thundercats to go (1 Berbil, Driller, Stinger, Toungeasaurus ), some weapons and some vehicles to complete my collection. I doubt if I will find Bengali's hammer and Pumyra's sling at a decent price. I may have to pick up a complete figure and trade off the incomplete ones that I have. I did get lucky last year and found Lynxo's shield in a lot of weapons I picked up on Ebay (didn't even know it was included).

I just picked up a beat up Lion-o for 1.99 at value village. If anyone has his sword or shield for trade please email me. I think that this may be the next line that I collect.

I love this line, but have decided that when I do start to recollect it, I'll be going the MOC route.
I can already feel my wallet shuddering in fear.

I used to own a Cat's Lair shell a few years ago that I picked up at a garage sale. Sadlly it wwas missing everything possible. I had to Ebay it off as it was just to sad to look at knowing I would never find the parts for it. I will get a complete or near complete one some day (hopefully cheap ata a garage sale or something). This thing is huge by the way and I am sure the shipping cost would be crazy!

Just got my Driller in the mail that I won from the UK. He looks awesome! Super fast shipping and no customs hassle either. I think I may have to bid on more items overseas!

I've been winning quite a few over sees auctions lately. It seems like they don't have as much competition some times either, which is a plus. So far my experiences have been very positive. Sure you have to pay a little more for shipping, but if it's something you are really looking for then it can be quite worth the extra expense. BTW does anyone know of any Thundercats websites that are very comprehensive and cover the whole toy line indepth?

I have all figures complete except The Mad Bubbler. What's the deal with the bubbler anyway; is it confirmed that it was released in few numbers or that it just was a prototype? Someone claimed to have sold the only 'PROTOTYPE' bubbler figure in existance on ebay to a bigtime collector. There's not alot of updated Thundercats sites around (none?) anymore. I have gathered a bunch of facts about the variants, unproduced figures and more over the years, but that bubbler still puzzles me!

I heard that a few were released in Europe but thats about it. I have never heard of one turning up though.

I just added a bunch of new pics to the Thundercats section. Thanks to Emmanuel Rodriguez for the pics for Toungue-a-saurus, Cats Lair, Mummra Tomb and Thundertank. Also added the Driller.

So I dont' see the Cats Lair up on Ebay very often. Is this playset pretty rare? Expensive?

It comes up every now and then.....loose complete usually goes for under $200. My buddy just got one off of ebay and that playset is huge!!!

It actually looks like a playset that you could play with. Unlike the poor BlackStar Ice Castle. Looks pretty fun too. I'm thinking about maybe collecting Thundercats once I'm done with my Dino Riders collection.

Oh yeah....it is very sturdy...so is the Mummra's Tomb one. Blackstar castle.......is only good if you keep it in a glass case and don't come with 15 feet of it.

Make sure you walk softly too. From the looks of it, it could break from the calmest of breezes.

i got this from south america like 2 years ago. i do have some mexican knock-offs if anyone would like to see. oh i have a stinger but the wings are broken off (super flimsy) i do have most of the wings still.

Post by 10incher on Aug 22, 2005 13:40:44 GMT -6
Are the Stinger wings similar to the wings on the big Sectaurs bugs? Stinger is one of those figures you just have to buy MOC.... if you can find one and want to pay the price

I just recalled that I have another version of Lion-O. As you all may know there are: orange hair, red hair, rounded neck and the non-light up mold. I have a maroon hair Lion-O. Does anyone have this variant? I hope it qualifies as a variant. As usual, I have most of my figures boxed but I will locate my Lion-O figures and take a comparison photo to post here. I bought this figure from a guy in Portugal from ebay. It clearly is another color than the red and orange and I don't think it got this color over time due to perhaps exposion to sunlight or what-have-you. It has minimal wear and looks taken care of in genaral. Be patient, pictures will be posted! Meanwhile, anyone else recognize this?

You could have the Thunder Wings Lion-O. One way to tell is that there isn't a hole in the back for the power ring.

No, I mentioned that version as the non-light up mold figure, but this figure is just like the "regular" with light up feature but with maroon colored hair.
