Of the old school/vintage line I've only seen Tygra and he looked pretty wonky to me. Is Lion-O cool?

I'm mostly enjoying the new animated series for Thundercats; but still not 100% behind it. Loved the premiere, but so far the weekly episodes have been hit and miss.
I do like the vintage figures they've released, although I don't plan on collecting them.

I think because we all have families/poontang at home?Speaking of vintage, I highly recommend you guys check out the new Thundercats cartoon/toys. VERY 80'ish. The cartoon is awesome, light years better than the Clone Wars, and I am a SW fan.
lol, didn't realize this was mainly a work thing...
Yeah, I saw the premiere, pretty awesome. Still have to check out the rest of the series though.

Tygra I'm on the fence with. The green wrist joints look rediculous and I haven't found one with solid paint apps; they've all had a messed up left eye.
But Lion-O is pretty dope!https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3719688&postcount=269
Also if you have the space the 14" Mezco one is badass and only $5 more than Bandai's 8 inch offering.

Are you on the square?

Agreed on both counts!
If I ever see a Lion-O in the store, I'll probably pick him up.
Weird story--I visited my parents a couple months ago for vacation, and found an old poster I made in kindergarten (circa 1985) under the bed. It was a list of things like the food I like, favorite color, etc. For one of the entries I listed Thundercats as my favorite cartoon, and GI Joe as my favorite toy. For the life of me, I don't remember ever thinking of Thundercats as my favorite cartoon. In my time and age-corrupted memories, I remember liking GI Joe and Transformers way more than anything else.

If I ever found some of my old sketch books, there's a better than even chance that some of the pictures I drew copying over Flint's cardback art with a piece of paper over it are in there.

Cause you love Flint in an unnatural way.
Yeah, but I magically responded to your post before it was posted. That's pretty unnatural itself, you freaky magician, you.

I'm not sold on that... or a lot of the changes made. Something about the series is just not sitting well with me.
Same here, I have a lot of down-time at work so I check and post a lot, then I'm more likely to check on weeknights to continue any discussions. But on the weekends I'm pretty scarce unless there's an event like Spook or SDCC. Got hang with the family and kiddo.
I'm usually busy hunting my next vict. . ., er, hanging with the wife and kids on the weekend.
Yeah, that's the ticket.

I mispelled a word, and it drives me nuts. So I deleted that ish.
Open up your heart sir, it's a solid show. I am big fan of animation and I think it's one of the best action cartoons on the air right now. Trust me between my own interest in animation and my son's I see quite a bit. Family first son! And I had no idea you were a mod Jo! But I guess what I don't know could fill up the Grand Canyon (Flosi's butt, so NAM says).
Too lazy to post your profile pic.

Lion-O looks damn cool! Miles better than Tygra. I'm sure my brother will be picking some up so I'll wait to see them in hand before buying any myself.

Tygra is fine, finding one with the tampo on correctly is the hard part. Just like the vintage line paint is this line's Achilles heel.

Okay, new list and I'm down to 20. The only bad thing is there's not many left that can be picked up somewhat cheaply. I count around 5 that will run 15 or less... the others will all be 30 and up (way up for a few).
