Use this thread to post what you find, and where! Let your fellow collectors know what's up. Minor local discussion is ok, but try to keep it focused on the toys and finding them locally.

I guess I get to be the first to report. TRU at 14 and John-R has some of everything. Regular and deluxe small scale figures, the sword, the tiny sword and tiny gauntlet, the Thundertank, and the classic figures.

Unfortunately they only had Tigra left from the Classic figures, no Lion-O.

The 6 inch new series Mumm-Ra tempted me for some time, but I passed.

Just joined the forum myself -- Went to the TRU off Schoenherr (Lakeside Circle) day before last and did not see them, nor did I see a shelf space set for them. Went to K-Mart on Garfield today, found nothing, and same for Target on 14 & Gratiot. Looking for the 4" mainly (Ordered 6" off Amazon, and Classics off Entertainment Earth), and possibly one Tygra classic to open for display. Good luck everyone!

Did they have the 14" Mezco figure also, or just the Bandai figures? I know double posting is typically a no-no on forums, so I apologize in advance.

Finally a bit of good news -- TRU at Schoenherr and Hall (Sterling Heights) had nothing on the shelf, so I decided to ask an employee if they had any of the new Thundercats line. I guess the day before they put out some, and I didn't see any on the shelf, so I asked if he could check the Roseville store for me -- He said he'd do that AND look in the back. Found a box of 4" figures unopened! I took Lion-O, Cheetara, Tygra, and Panthro - but the rest were going on the shelf.

All they had was that box of 4" -- No Classics, 6", Mezco, Deluxe, etc., etc. - Hope this helps someone!

TRU on Gratiot and Masonic (Roseville) finally had some stuff in -- Some 4", some 6", Large Role Playing Sword, all of the smaller vehicles, and the Thundertank.

Just FYI, the Wal-mart at 14 and Van Dyke has Thundercats on the shelves, though they seem to be going through them fast.

I had seen the Classic 8" Liono at Walmart in Okemos, but that was a few weeks ago. The toysrus also had some.

I haven't been there in a while, but the Walmart at 14 and Van Dyke used to have several pegs of them.

Walmart and TRU are both major distributors, Target won't carry the line in stores until next year.

That one used to be my favorite to go to, but now I live too far away from it. They always had their shelves overflowing with hard to find toys.

The target in sterling heights (15 mile and Van Dyke) has one of both of the new 6" classics Lion-O and Mumm-Ra. I left both and forgot to check the price. The paint job looks better on this lion-o, but I still wasn't interested.

The Target at 14 and John-4 also has (had?) some of the 6 inch classics and a few deluxe and regular 4 inch figures.

So this is a couple of weeks old now - I didn't know there was a sightings thread. I picked up the Mumm-Ra Storm Charger at the Fowlerville Wal-Mart. The Howell Wal-Mart had a bunch of 8" Classic Tygra's on clearance for $8.40 - no Lion-O's.

Fowlerville had the Claudus wave at some point, only things left were the v2 Lion-O. I did see the Claudus wave at the West Lansing Wal-Mart this past weekend, they had v2 Lion-O, v2 Panthro and Mumm-Ra. Claudus was already gone. I picked him up almost two months ago at the West Lansing Wal-Mart but haven't seen him since.

Oh, also - The Charlotte Wal-Mart had no Thundercats stuff at all. Not even the little Sword of Omens. They had no peg space labeled for them either, weird!

Thanks for the info. I almost stopped at the Fowlerville Walmart on my way down I96 over the weekend. Unfortunately I had a little fender bender and never made it over there.

If anyone is seeing 4" thundercats figs on clearance, could you please list the prices? I am thinking about getting into the 4" scale because there are more characters and possibly good prices. Thanks!

Hey everyone. I have just pre-ordered a case of 4 of the modern 6" figures (1 Lion-o, 1-Cheetara, 2-Tygra's) on BBTS. I only want one Tygra and one Cheetara out of the 4 figures. If someone here is interested in the remaining Tygra and/or Lion-O and lives close to East Lansing/Lansing or Metro Detroit area (near Roseville or Sterling Heights), I would be willing to meet-up with you and sell you the figures. I will use this method of transaction only because I do not use paypal. Once I obtain the case, I will sell the Tygra for $20 and the Lion-O for $15. If you are interested, please PM me and we can work something out. The first person that PM's me will get the first opportunity at buying the figure(s). Take care.
