Here are some pics of my Classic Thundercats Collection. Since the pictures were taken I have also managed to get vultureman, Grune and Panthro. I happened to find this lot on Craigslist for a rediculously cheap price. all figuires are practically mint and 100% complete.

The Comic Show is nice if they get good dealers to show up. I think your sons would like it. It sucks that comic carnival closed down in greenwood and 38th st. I mostly hit up half price books for deals. They had .50 back issues and trades for half off.

there is an awesome store on the southside called Comic Book University
but yeah too bad those other stores closed up. This store was on the far westide that closed as well. I got in there only 1 time before they closed. I think they just do online sales now. I occasionally see them advertising on craigslist. AP collectibles Last edited by IndyCat; 08-04-2011 at 10:29 AM.. |

That looks nice. Are those APEX cases or custom? I really want to see what the classics line will look like. |

Have you checked out the Emporium across the street? They had some vintage TC figs there. Most didn't have accessories though. Its in the booth at the back right of the store. Also the Southside flea market by that Kmart has a couple of toy booths.

For now, I collect the 2011 line. I'm just really getting into Thundercats now. I was only a baby when the Original Series first aired. However, I end up getting my brother's figures when I was like 4 or 5. I may try to get some of the '80's line somewhere down the road, but I will definitely be getting the Classics Lion-O and Tygra made by Bandai.

Yeah, same here as with Hyper Jaguar. I was born in the 90's so I only got to watch ThunderCats when CN showed reruns. For now though I'm focusing on the 4'' line, starting out slowly. But other than that I collect very diverse lines, like right now I'm into the Bandai SH Figuarts line. It's draining my wallet but damn they are impressive.

too bad you werent old enough for the originals! fyi: you can rent them on netflix if you have a subscrition, DVD only though. but they have them all.
for me I did watch the original shows, so they are more nolstalgic...the new show however is cool, but my generation didnt really get very much of the whole japanese animation thing. pretty much when power rangers became popular, I was old enough to be getting out of the cartoons and such. |

IndyCat, I live in Indianapolis too! We should coordinate on where the toys are at and who has what in stock, especially when Wave 2 comes out.
Do you know anywhere around that has some orginal series toys for sale? The only place I know is the vintage toy store in Kokomo. The plainfield Walmart carries Thundercats. The only place I know of that has a few vintage thunder cats is the southside fleamarket at County Line and 135. they only have a few are really beat up. no weapons or anything. I have to rely on ebay for the vintage stuff. I havent been to kokomo toys, but from what I can tell on their website and ebay page, they are pretty expensive. |
