And I gotta tell ya &#8211; I&#8217;m not a big ThunderCats fan. I know Lion-O. I know there&#8217;s Tygra, who&#8217;s not the girl, and Cheetara, who is. There&#8217;s a ghost. And they fight a mummy. That about sums it up, right? <\/p>\n<p>So why would I even be interested? Well, they are Four Horsemen sculpted, Masters of the Universe compatible figures. I feel like, at this point, I&#8217;d buy anything in that scale &#038; style. I love the Batman and still want Superman (&#038; Warlord) and a lot of the 80s properties would look great all matched up with MOTU. This could be interesting? <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"newsimages\/sdcc2015\/tcatsclassic.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p><A href=\"http:\/\/pop-critica.com\/sdcc-2015-mattypalooza-announces-mattel-has-acquired-thundercats-license-reveals-first-of-classic-series\/\" target=\"_Blank\">Pop Critica<\/a> has coverage of the panel and the booth. We don&#8217;t know a ton just yet, but we do have a ways to go get there. Lion-O will kick the line off NEXT July, that&#8217;s 2016, and be part of a subscription including the already revealed Jackalman with a powered down Mumm-Ra as the subscription exclusive. It&#8217;s likely they&#8217;ll be four more figures, probably revealed at Toy Fair next year and the subscription will go on sale around that time. <\/p>\n<p>It could be interesting times over at Mattycollector, where the new folks in charge seem to have finally realized it could be a useful outlet. Many other possible licenses were shown at the beginning of the panel as a huge &#8220;what could be&#8221;.
