Possible New Toys (Spoilers)

[krazycp]

After seeing New Alliances, I have a good feeling we will be getting a Thundertank add-on. If they are smart, then it will attach to the existing Thundertank and we won't have to buy a totally new one. Also, if it comes with a Berbil that fits in the cockpit I would be very, very happy.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if we see a new lizard ship/tank. Obviously, it will be a scaled down version, but around Thundertank/Storm Charger size.

And finally, no surprise here, Addicus and Kaynar.

Would definitely be interesting to see them make an upgraded Thundertank. I personally would prefer to be able to buy the tank and the upgrade in one package. I doubt they would be able to make an add-on that would fit onto the already existing tank. I imagine that if they were to make the upgrade, the tank would need some modifications so it could attach. Either way, a Robear Berbil Bill would be an absolute must.

The lizard hover tank/platform thing would be interesting. I don't think they would really need to downsize it to make it the size of the Thundertank/StormCharger.

As for Addicus and Kaynar, I still haven't bought any of the modern figures, but these two would be hard for me to pass up. Most especially if they and Slithe got the 6" scale treatment.

Edit:Re-watching the episode, I'm not so sure that making the addition for the Thundertank is something Bandai should do. As large as it is, it'd be cool to see, but I can't see something that large selling well. Thundercats doesn't have the pull that Star Wars does.

Maybe if Bandai were to create a small-scaled line of vehicles and buildings. Kinda like the Halo Micro-Ops stuff McFarlane is releasing later this year, or Hasbro's Titanium line.

Also, looking at the lizard platform thing again, some downsizing would be needed, but overall it wouldn't be hard to do. I'd like to see it just because it would give them an excuse to make a different lizard warrior figure.

Addicus and Kaynar were cool. I'd buy them in 4" and 6" forms.

How is this a spoiler as opposed to pure speculation?

The spoiler part of this is stuff from the recent episode. There's bound to be some on here who haven't seen it.

Although he wasnt in the episode, I am still hoping for a Jaga...

[Dr Kain]

Only care if they are in the 6inch scale.

same

[Pizza Man Z]

Yeah, I like the 4 inch moderns, but really like the 6 inch scale, and after my shipment come in this week, I will have all the 6 inch figures made to date. We need Kaynar and Addicus in 6 inch SCALE BANDAI

[adssse]

I have been sticking with the 4" and classics. I also like the 6", but since money can sometimes be a bit tight I have to limit myself.

[Dr Kain]

I'm the opposite. I've decided to only buy the 6inch line because the proportions and articulation is terrible in the 4inchers. They might have more figures, and the vehicles, but I do not think they are worth their price point. As for the vehicles, GI Joe proved to me vehicles do you no good when things are being displayed, so not having those are no big loss.

Yeah, like most of us outside the U!

[IndyCat]

I could care less about a lizard transport. I wish they would make a lizard army building pack.

Of course Atticus and Kaynar are must buys in all scales.

If they don't produce berbils they are nuts.

We also need Mumm-Ra's pyramid tomb playset.

Thundertank add on would be ideal. But that thing just looks fat.

Berbil house/village playset? They have been in enough episodes they deserve something.

All one has to do is visit the main page here and they will see that there are two characters that very closely resemble Monkian and Jackalman that debuted on the show and have been showcased there for several weeks. Again, I would hardly call it a spoiler.

I didn't say that they were the spoiler, just that the thread in general can contain spoilers. If I was going to be specific, I would mention the upgrade to the Thundertank. Which was something none of us knew about till we saw the episode for the first time.
