Battle Cat Man for the win.
MoTU and Thundercats go together like milk and cookies. These figures look amazing! I like with Lion-O and Cheetara is that the MoTU assets appear to be mostly removable, so if one was so inclined, you could take the MoTU armor off and you’d be left with an awesome “Mattel Origins"-style Thundercats figure to display. Which is a dream come true for a girl like me as I am a HUGE fan of both franchises and no company (so far) as really given the ‘cats the retro rerelease treatment like so many other toylines have been getting these past few years, from our favorite MoTU to Hasbro’s rerelease of the Kenner Real Ghostbusters figures and all of the various TMNT rereleases that Playmates have been putting out this past while.
It’s good to see TC getting some rep and big-ups to Mattel for being the ones to do it!
