I can get any of the wave 2 four inch figs

But have not see a storm Charger

Balgus82 04-01-2012 01:15 PM

i've seen it at our local Wal-Mart.

Sometimes different stores seem to have different figures. No idea why. I've seen everything but Slithe, 6" Cheetara and Tygra, and the lizard cannon.

I saw the Storm Charger at every Walmart I've been to since Dec. It is the only thing Thundercats that has been showing up everywhere for once.

I can confirm it is out there. Saw one in South West Florida about 2 weeks ago @ Wal Mart.

Neither have I.

glane21 04-01-2012 10:24 PM

I need a Storm Charger as well. If anyone has them in their area and would pick one up for those of us in need that would be great. Please PM me. I've seen the 6" Cheetara in my area if anyone needs help with getting her.

RichardC 04-02-2012 12:14 AM

Indeed need one myself I can get my hands on any wave2

Storm charger
 
Your best bet for finding a Storm Charger is to look at Walmarts that just started carrying Thundercats this year. The only new thing I've seen in Walmarts that carried them last year is the 6in classics and armor of omens. Any store that got in that pallet display for Christmas probably has too many thundertanks.

RichardC 04-02-2012 05:28 PM

If anyone can get an extra will gladly take it off your hands please

NateHups 04-02-2012 09:18 PM

Ordered mine on eBay today since I live in Canada and we only got the first 2 classics and the first 3 6 inch figs.

nomad16 04-03-2012 06:06 PM

seen it in stores.

daytimeninja 04-08-2012 04:28 PM

Only have seen 1 in stores.

Ruination04 04-08-2012 09:20 PM

I did see one at a local Wal-Mart I never really visit that much. That was a over a month ago. Haven't seen one since.

Pravus Prime 04-08-2012 11:12 PM

I've never seen it and I've got Armor of Omens at my local stores that are literally gathering dust on the shelf.

The Armor of Omens is not selling well at all from what I have seen. Every store I go to that has Thundercats has a couple just sitting on the lower shelf.

Honestly I don't know who it was at Bandai that thought it was a good idea to make this into a figure. It only got screen time for what, like 10 seconds?

Tracer 04-09-2012 11:16 AM

I would have bought it if it wasn't a vastly oversized brick.

krazycp 04-09-2012 12:42 PM

Personally, I like the Armor of Omens, however I wish it would have been smaller. In the show, the Armor of Omens wasn't that much bigger than Lion-O. It could have been 8-10 inches tall and been in more scale.

I think, like the GI Joe 30th Skystiker, it's a cool toy that is just too much than the average parent is willing to spend for their kids. That's why the Thundertank and Tower of Omens are still collecting dust.

And BTW- there are a few random Storm Chargers here in Indianapolis I might be willing to pick up and ship to some people. But, realize the shipping charges add to the overall cost.

I just have a feeling most of Wave 2 is somewhat rare. I don't know if they plan to release more or if what's out there is it.

to bad the storm charger doesnt do anything for me, otherwise I'd have one of those!

I also have the Armor of Omens. Not my favorite, but higher on the list then the Storm Charger or Tower of Omens.

RichardC 04-09-2012 07:55 PM

I got a stormcharger off ebay but still dont know about slithe yet

Ruination04 04-15-2012 10:16 PM

Found 2 of them tonight along with Claudus and the Tiger Flyer. Hate to be an ass but I haven't bought it yet. Payday isn't until Friday. Don't wanna say where in case some fellow local fans go grab it before I do.

Damn dude, I still cant even find one :(

grune7 04-23-2012 06:10 PM

I just found that the local walmart that has the stormcharger has clearanced them for $23.96 so i picked it up

krazycp 04-23-2012 06:25 PM

Yeah, my Wal-Mart here in Indianapolis had the last Storm Charger on clearance for $23.96 so I picked it up too. It's on Ebay now. Hopefully a collector/fan can find it that way. But people can't find it in some places and in other places they are literally collecting dust! Amazing!

Tracer 04-23-2012 06:51 PM

Why not offer it up to the people looking for it on here?

They've really made some strange choices. Tygus? Armor of Omens? The Tower of Omens? None of these have factored very heavily into the plot. Before Journey to the Tower of Omens aired, I thought they might make a temporary headquarters there since they decided to give us a playset.

Jaga and the Berbils have had more screen time then the things I just mentioned, and I bet Berbils would be more popular with kids then Tygus... There have also been a pile of cool characters who were the focus of an entire episode, who would've made for great figures.

damn,....clearance. I would have bought it.

Kregermeister 04-24-2012 11:12 AM

Yeah I still dont get the point of Tygus. Sure the figure is cool and I love the flyer, but whats the point without Leo?
