Hooray for our UK friends!

 

I just hope we get all the figures but this is great news that Bandai are still producing the figures and I think the value of 6 inch Tygras etc will be sold for $10 soon if we in the UK can buy them!!!

This was the news I was waiting for just to confirm that Bandai are still interested in the Thundercats Licence

 

It is also good news in general because it shows they still care about the line.

 

First i thought they were referring to a New Wave(3)!! but it's just for the EU release of Wave 2...

 

Should still be happy, better they do this then cancel it all.

 

Who knows if and when a new set of ThunderCats toys for America will come?

 

OUTSTANDING!!!!! August is earlier than we were expecting! Hooyah!!!

This is fantastic news!!! And just goes to show that just because there aren't any announcements for a while, doesn't mean there won't be one!!!

Oh come on, don't start all this again! Give it time!!! They haven't even released all of this wave yet!

In time I'm betting there will be another release out of the blue about a wave 3!

 

I also got this today when I asked when wave 2 will be released in the uk-it may even be earlier than August



Dear Luke
Thank you for your enquiry

The next wave of figures will be launched in the UK this July/August.

Kind regards
Bandai UK Ltd

 

Ask them when the next WAVE will be introduced! (don't actually do it, but it would be nice to know)

 

It would be nice, but on past form I'm sure they'll let us know in their own sweet time.

 

Good news indeed! Btw, I love the UK Tcats commercials!

I don't know what exactly this means, but someone asked Bandai UK if we are getting the 6" Tygra and 6" Cheetara in July/August and their reply was "Yes, collectors figures aswell, does that mean the Classics or the Modern versions?

Not only that, on the Bandai UK site, Panthro is number three in their top 5 products!!!

 

Panthro is awesome, so I guess that's expected :

 

Even as a toy Panthro kicks arse! I bet the figure just walked up and punched whatever toy WAS number three and took it's place! Toy Panthro's gonna work its way up to number 1! :

Okay, just been back on the site and Panthro's already kicked his way up to number 2!!!!!!

Not only that, Bandai's most popular toys this week has Panthro at 2, Grune and Cheetara at 5 and 6, and the rest are Ben 10 and Power Rangers, and they keep churning those franchise's toys out, so if that's not promising I don't know what is!!!!!!!!

That's awesome! Glad to see the toys are selling well.

 

Yeah, I saw the UK TV ad on the Disney XD channel last night during X-Men! :D

I actually wooped. Very nice, and encouraging.

I actually saw a commercial for the toys a few days back here in the US. I was shocked.

 

I haven't seen an ad yet, but that may be my fault as I tend to ignore the TV when the ads are on.

It looks like things are going well though!!
