Thundercats - General Discussion (and some Silverhawks too, whynot)

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

Right? It's actually going to be built around a studio apartment in Soho.

Destination: Unknown?

Holy moly

 

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

Hot damn, that might just be big enough to actually do it!

 

[Steevy Maximus]

Hope you hardcore TCats fans been saving your pennies…

'Tis glorious, but I don't think I'll be participating in this one. The bummer is, I'm worried Hasbro will watch something like this to see if big playsets are worth crowdfunding, and it's not completely apples to apples. I like Thundercats, but they are not a property I would spend this much on. If we got a Death Star playset, Mt St Hilary Autobot base playset, or even an all new GI Joe HQ - I'd be far more likely to spring for it.

$650 +$100 shipping. Brian Flynn says there will be payment plans.

 

[Caldwin]

It looks nice and all. But if I have to do a payment plan for a toy, it's time to rethink priorities.

First images from Super7’s SDCC booth. Notable for me are the toy-deco Silverhawks figures, which feature a toy deco Buzzsaw and Vac Metal Steelhart and Quicksilver.

... well jive.

They are going to get us on double dips before we even get Copper Kid, aren't they?

 

[Platypus Prime]

I'm not in the market for a giant cat's lair any more than a $1500 Grimlock (though at risk of hypocritcal I do have Snake Mountain on order...) but I love how the side panels when open both make external scenery AND expand the interior. That's very well done!

Super7 SilverHawks Interview- What’s up with the Vac-Metal?​

 

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

 

[Platypus Prime]

I know there's been decades of toy tech advancement, so I hope the vac metal doesn't just erode like my originals. I had two Silverhawks, Bluegrass and Quicksilver, and both just had the chrome fall off, and when the flesh paint also flaked, they got weird looking.

 

[Confuzor]

Cat's Lair fully funded with the early bird Key of Thundera locked in!

 

[Dake]

That's wild that it's funded already - it took the Thundertank way longer.

I'm guessing people want the Lair more than the tank, as its more iconic in appearance, much like the Spinx is in our world!

 

[Confuzor]

I dont believe the Tank had a posted number it needed to meet or a countdown to show how close we were to "making it".
