Picked up 4'' tigra and panthro today. Almost grabbed the tank too. Might grab the tank later this week or next. Now all I need to do is find the twins, cheetara, and the deluxe 4'' mummra.

Also just moments ago discovered that tigra and lion-o have ball jointed heads. Might have to get another lion-o as custom fodder. =D

nitewing73 08-07-2011 01:40 PM

Picked up the 4-inch Lion-O and Tygra today.

raiden225005 08-07-2011 03:36 PM

So can anybody confirm if the 4inch panthro's legs can actually move separately. One of the youtube reviews I saw seemed like something broke when the guy got the legs to move apart. Seems like a weird design choice to me.

I saw a review where someone was able to move them separately, but he was afraid that he may have broke the figure. To be on the safe side, I wouldn't try it.

Can't wait to get my hands on the new Figures.
 
You guys that have gotten you figures already count yourselves lucky. Georgia usually has a lag of new figures no matter if its Transformers or any of the popular figures. I have found comfort with finding some of my original figures to keep my yernings for the new toys at bay. Ours should be in with a week or two according to the Kmart folks.

dj7000 08-07-2011 11:07 PM

yea, im sick of this,lol. I'll wait a few weeks and scour my local area stores. It amazes me stores miles away from each other get one set and the other stores get zippo. ugh!

dolf334 08-07-2011 11:11 PM

Patience is getting thin. I hate being a collector sometimes. I am about 1 week away from biting the bullet and paying higher prices online.

Went to Toys R Us in Salem, Oregon this morning and they had almost everything in stock! They had at least one of everything and multiple of most. I got as much as my budget could afford. Here are pics:

Thunderra Prime 08-08-2011 02:41 PM

Found just about everything at the Olympia, WA TRU this morning. I picked up the 4" main cast except for Mumm-Ra and Lion-O's ThunderRacer. I wanted to buy more, but I'm trying to budget. Sad thing is that except for Lion-O, Tygra, and Mumm-Ra, everything is one per case.

Yeah, the one per case part really sucks. I wanted to get a 4" Cheetara for myself and one for my daughter, but they only had one. Guess my collection will have to wait. My daughter has been so excited about getting a Cheetara toy... the first one will have to go to her =o)

That's very nice of you to do that for your daughter. I'm sure you'll find another soon enough.

I am still trying to find most of the figures, myself. But if I find an extra 4" Cheetara, I will pick one up for ya. :D

IndyCat 08-08-2011 03:17 PM

went to the TRU in Castleton.

Had a few things left. I only got the Tygra Classic. I was wanting to get the regular sword and claw shield.....but WOW are they small!! I think I'll pass on those. I used the TRU facebook 20% off coupon and got tygra for $17.11 after tax. not bad. They retail for $19.99

Thought I'd post pictures of my haul =o) I got two of the 4" Lion-O figures because my daughter wanted one =o) I'm sure I'll find a Cheetara eventually. K-Mart should be getting them in anytime and I'm sure TRU will get more in stock =o)

If you go to the toys r us Facebook page and "like" them you get a 20% off coupon on a s ingle item. If you take in the reciept with the coupon they should be able to apply it and refund some money.

propazoid 08-09-2011 08:36 AM

I found everything except the Deluxe Grune.

I have some extra 4" & 6" figures if anyone is looking to trade.

ssjgoku72000 08-09-2011 11:35 AM

Ugh...Kinda getting tired of waiting. My Local Kamrt has the section all setup, even with the Price Tags, but it's been like that for a week. Meanwhile My local TRU has like 5000 Kung Zhu's taking up all the shelf space, and they are putting other new toys out, Including the 14" Lion-O....BUT THAT'S IT.....

I wonder if your K-Mart got a shipment in and then sold out... I can't imagine them putting pegs and price tags out and not putting stock out. Maybe though... it is K-Mart... I don't know what your K-Mart is like, but ours looks like Goodwill. lol. I'd just keep calling TRU every day. That's what I did. Maybe ask what days they get shipments. I went in to my TRU and they were able to look up in the computer when they were getting the 4" and 6" toys in stock. ThunderCats have their own category in their inventory system.

IndyCat 08-09-2011 11:52 AM

Has anyone see the Classics anywhere else other then Toys R Us?

ssjgoku72000 08-09-2011 11:54 AM

Na, they either didn't get them or just haven't put them out. I was there the day before the pegs came out, and probably the day they did come out. My Kmart is in the middle of their reset. They put out new Ben 10 and the $80 Ultimate Optimus prime from DOTM. But Like you's, ours is Like Goodwill. the only times the shelf's are well stocked is Chirstmas.

No they aren't. They are listed in Target computers, and at a cheaper price.

Yea, My mistake, Just double-checked. There was an old article that said they may be exclusives. But then they Switched to Just the SDCC one being a TRU exclusive.

Thankfully, they went with other retailers as well. $20 is a bit much for them.

Well that's the problem with the modern day TRU. Back in the 80's you went there and they had toys other stores didn't even have shelf space to carry, and they were the same price as everywhere else. Now most stores have brought the clothing side (Kids R Us) into the existing TRU stores, so now there are less hard to find toys at higher than average prices. It kinda sucks.....

propazoid 08-09-2011 02:33 PM

How's this for bizarre...

Two different Toys R Us's in NY have this set up...

Went by TRU in Dublin yesterday and they had the Thundertank and 1 Mummra basic and some deluxe figures.

1973 bug 08-09-2011 07:45 PM

I found all the figures at a toys t us in Delaware. I only need the classic lion o

I have a extra cheetara. Is any one in need ?

EverLiving 08-09-2011 08:16 PM

I count myself very lucky. I can now say I've seen everything out in a few different Chicago Kmarts & TRUs. As much as I just want to buy it all, and eventually I will, I want to draw out the fun as much as possible and am just buying an item or two as I find them.

Lody 08-09-2011 08:39 PM

Has anyone found these at Toys R Us and if so, in what section did you find them?

The aisle with the Marvel Universe? The aisle with Transformers/Star Wars

or the aisle with Bakugan

Anyone else get the Thundertank and the roof keeps flopping off cause the pegs dont fit right at all? Kinda disapointed in the toy. Shit paint job too.

I was thinking that too..but after the kids kept playing with it and they just pop it back on. Then I realized it's a kids toy and probably meant to come off.

Im probably gunna bring mine back, I mean its SO loose that it falls off if you roll it! Plus the paint is REALLY bad on mine, the front teeth were done over with a silver paint pen. You can really see the pen strokes too! Weird!

This weekend, they have a $5 off purchases of $25 or more due to the grand opening, Im gonna snag a couple there. Otherwise Im waiting to see if the Lacey target (which I work at) will even get them. I dont know if target picked them up,but we just finished the toy setup for christmas.

User897 08-10-2011 04:30 AM

Target was closed so I don't know for sure if they have the toys. I did go to Walmart, and they didn't have a single Thundercats toy, nor did they have any shelf space set for them. I looked at the pallets, and nothing. Are they even going to carry this line? Do they even know it exists? Did they not get the memo?

I'll be really surprised if Walmart doesn't stock them...eventually. They've been listed on Bandai's site as a place to find them since day one. Though I do have to admit, it does feel weird that the only sightings so far have been from TRU and K-Mart.

Wow! I'd expect better of Bandai! if the tank is that bad it makes me not want to get it at all. Maybe because it is the first run. Sometimes the first waves of stuff has issues that need to be addressed. Maybe we should write into Bandai and tell them we want toys that don't fall apart and look nice! I want the Snarf but I don't want to pay 30 bucks for a toy that isn't going to stay together.

IndyCat 08-10-2011 10:27 AM

looks like tru.com took the classics off the site. :(

Covenant 08-10-2011 11:28 AM

I ordered them from TRU.com last week and they finally shipped this morning. I tried to cancel the order because I got sick of waiting but they told me it was too late. None of the TRUs in Paramus or Totowa have any figures on the shelves as of last night. I checked 2 targets and they have nothing either. Guess I'll just wait for the UPS package.

Damn you right near me lol, I coulda let ya know lol! Dont waste your time at Kmart in Paramus either, not only are they beyond confused there, they keep saying "we will not carry that line"...... really? Cause im pretty sure you are lol.

Dont get me wrong, the tank is ALOT of fun, mine just maybe defective. Im going to bring it back for sure, but im going to try a quick mod to fix it, this way if I break it I wont feel terrible, ill just go get a new one ;) I'll keep you guys posted, maybe you could fix yours!

propazoid 08-10-2011 02:10 PM

Finally opened my 4" figures & tank. I still need to open up the 6" figures.

I have to say, I LOVE the 4" line the best so far!

Walmart will have them. I've already heard reports of people seeing them in Walmart. I think Walmart is going to have them for cheaper than TRU and Target if I remember correctly.

I don't think any place around me is getting anything in until next week though, but I ordered the Classic figures on TRU.com last Friday and are getting them tomorrow! Very excited.

Huh. If you know which TRUs those are, do you think you could tell me? I wanna know if it's near me or not D:

Because I got Lion-O online but I'll probably find it easier to get the rest in person.

dolf334 08-10-2011 03:56 PM

Found a complete set of 4" figures today. I plan on keeping them MOC. They are hanging on my cubicle wall right now. They look nice. I found them at a TRU that had a huge end cap.

squawkbot 08-10-2011 07:56 PM

Gah nothing locally. Ordered from TRU online, but got there too late to snatch up the 4" basic figures. Guess I'll keep trolling. 1 per case....damn
