The Tygra case is finally hitting discounters as we all expected. I found one Tygra yesterday at Marshalls along with the 6 inch Lion-o and Cheetara. I guess someone else got the other Tygra or it's still in the stockroom or lying around the store somewhere since these places are typically a mess.
They had: 6" Tygra, Liono, Cheetara @ 5.99 4" figures @ 3.99 Thundertank @ 12.99 So don't feed the scalpers, because they're out there folks. Check your Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Ross, etc. asap. |

But here is a picture of it at Marshalls. And one after purchase showing the pricetags, which they are putting on the sides, and the receipt. And also here is a picture of the Tygra and Cheetara I got at the first Marshalls yesterday for $5.99. I don't understand the hostility to what is really good news for everyone. If you still can't handle it, I would suggest staying away from any Marshalls so that you are not disappointed. Last edited by glane21; 07-22-2012 at 04:25 PM.. |

I didn't deny they could be at retail. I merely said they may not be found in large quantity. Therefore still rare. Who knows though. Not me.

Hey if you find a Claudus fell free to pick me one up. I'd rather pay a little over the normal retail than the 30 that they seem to hover. Here we have gi joes and random dc stuff

I do not collect 6inch figures, but I figured someone would want this before the scalpers gobbled him up, and sure enough my buddy wanted it.

The fact that BBTS doesn't seem to have any trouble getting cases containing 2 of them points to them not being that rare.

LOL! The eBay price is already collapsing:
ThunderCats 6" Tygra Gun Action Figure Bandai | eBay I'm sure Starsapphire is proud about all the boardmembers and ebayers he/she managed to screw beforehand though. |

The 4 inch figures that they had at Marshalls for $3.99 were all from the first wave, unfortunately. And they only had the Thundertank, no Stormchargers.

Went to every Marshalls, TJ MAX, and Ross store in my county yesterday and found no 6" figures at all. My area sucks for toy collecting...used to be able to find stuff all the time...really depressing knowing that people all over the place are able to find these figures.

It's not the first time I've seen price disparities amongst Maxx/Marshall's stores. Usually they're consistent, but on occasion I've seen items I just found in one store for 2-5$ less.

I've already got two 6" Tygras but decided to go by my local Marshalls to see what they had. I'd definitely pick up more at a cheap price
Anyways there were no 6" anything but they did have 4 Thundertanks in very beat up boxes for $12 (too much for the condition of the boxes) and one lonely 4" Mummy Mummra for $3.00 lol I'm gonna be checking back every once in a while though in hopes of finding something good. |

It's worth a shot but I wouldn't go in with high expectations. What your seeing at TJ Maxx and Marshalls is all the wave 2 stock Bandai shipped to the distribution centers that never made it to the big 3 (TRU, WalMart, Target) because those stores cancelled or stopped their orders for more. So now all those cases which have been sitting there for months are making their way to the liquidation stores.
Is there a Slythe among them? I'd hope so but I'd say the chances are very slim as the cases containing him I believe never made it to the distribution centers. Only select retailers like BBTS got those cases once in a blue moon cause they are an actual retailer ordering from Bandai. But hey, the "hunt" is one of the most exciting parts of collecting right? Hopefully someone finds one. |

Nice to see everyone jumping on the bandwagon and trying to cash in. capitalism is great! Now with the influx of Tygra's, hopefully all the eBay sellers can get top dollar! lol.

Went to Marshalls today to scope it out. Saw Thundercats merch (tower of omens, thundertank (both $12.99), lion-o classic 8" for $7.99 and lion-o 6" modern). Saw no Tygra or any other figs. Encouraging but also kinda a bummer.

TJ Maxx doesn't seem to be getting anything Thundercats related (yet). I went to two TJ Maxx's and two Marshalls today. Both Marshalls had Thundercats stuff (Wave 1) while TJ Maxx had nothing.
I'm hoping if the wave 1 stuff is there, they'll get some wave 2 soon, but I already have everything minus the deluxe Slythe so anything else I find would just be for my desk at work. Edit: I forgot to mention I also stopped by a super WalMart I had never been to and there were about 20 Mummy Mummras, nothing else. Someone either at WB or Bandai really fudged up when they produced a million mummy Mummras in anticipation of it being the best selling toy of the century.

I now have all of the modern Thundercats both in 4" and 6" after my auction win for a 2-pack of 6" Tygra and Cheetara ($28 for both -- it would have been $18 but there was some last minute bidding, drat ). I'm jealous of those that could find them in stores, but all-in-all i'm happy.
