These are pretty nice looking. My only complaint (although minor) is the block-like nature of the torsos make Cheetara and Wilykit appear somewhat masculine. I havent invested in the line yet, but overall I like how they are coming along.

I'm not the Minimate expert on the forum... that would be IndyCat... but I don't think they have ever molded torsos to be more feminine. That's just the look. They do draw a shapely curve to the females though. Cheetara's is very noticeably painted on.

I have the first two sets and can't wait until these are available! I'm loving the line and it looks like we're going to get a very nice variety after all! Exciting to have new ThunderCats figures coming out that have so much detail put into them.

I like Berbil Bill. The others don't appeal to me at all. I've never been fond of the Minimates style of figures. I did own a few of the Marvel ones yeeears ago to try them out but I find them ugly. Still it's nice to see classic ThunderCats getting figures in some form still.

I might just have to pick that set up when it's released. I can't resist the berbil, they are too cute even in this form.

I can't wait to add this set so that I can have the original Cats.

I hope this line extends till after the 4th set. I hope they have a 5th set with Lynx-O, Pumyra, Bengali, with a little Snarfer and a 4th character. And maybe a 6th set with the Lunataks.

Darn, I guess I will have to get the other two if I get this. I keep trying to not buy but I keep finding new stuff.

Any word on when and where these are going to be released?

I'd bet money on them being SDCC exclusives this year.

You'd be wrong. They already said they are slated for April I believe and are to be an online exclusive.
