This is the best Thundercats Lair there is, by Icon Heroes.  Needs to be about 5 feet taller to be accurate for the Ultimates line. |

Pulled out my season1 DVD of Thundercats. Watched the first two episodes for the heck of it this morning.
Obviously, the big thing I remember is them without clothing before Jaga gives them clothing to protect themselves on the new planet they'd be forced to settle on. They are cat humanoid creatures, so it is a very shocking to see the likes of Cheetara nude having a convo with young Lion-O. Or the rest just standing around 'naked' on the bridge of their ship.
Both episodes basically have the format repeat. Lion-O takes on Mutants, rest of the gang act as reinforcements. In ep 1, the Cats are in their pods. In ep 2, Lion-O is off 'scouting' because he wants to avoid hard work of salvaging the wreckage. Cheetara compliments Lion-O in each episode, remarking that he's hansome having grown during his time in the pod (comes off like an older retaliative paying someone a compliment), then in episode two saying it was courageous to take on Mumm-Ra.
Mumm-Ra is defeated because he can't stand his own sight of his reflection. The mutants come off way too sluggish to defeat the cats in open combat because they are quick.
Oh and Jaga refers to the cast as 'nobles' 'even... err. Willykit and Willycat who will teach him the skills he needs. Jaga really turns into Obi Wan as the force ghost.
Episode 2 features for the first look at Mumm-Ra and his base. Some very cool visuals.
Breezy fun.

Perhaps her name should be Brisk Strolla?

I don't feel like this person tried very hard. They must have forgot what the original Cheetara looked like...  |

I'm really happy about all three of those.

I liked Mongor.
In the cartoon, he was near unstoppable. They defeated him by closing their eyes and not looking at him.
Willa is a figure that's kind of just as rare as the D&D kids, something that I thought would never be made.
Snarf is $55, lol! That little turd!
Probably should have been released in the same box with Lion-O.

In a video interview with Brian from Super7, few things he said...
"Willa's sister is happening."
"Willy-Kit and Willy-Kat will get released, but separately."
"The LJN figures are getting one more wave...for now."
"No big plans to do more LJN than that, was just a fun thing to do for the fans."
"Exclusives will all be variations of existing regular figures."
"There's still a lot we can do with Thundercats."
Ratar-O was supposed to be $65, but Brian thinks they probably messed up the price with retailers...and it's too late to change it.
The Thundertank is HUGE! Sounds like it should be shipping in November.
Also, when he was asked about Super7 making the Lunataks, he said, "That's the plan." :-)
