i've seen it at our local Wal-Mart.

Sometimes different stores seem to have different figures. No idea why. I've seen everything but Slithe, 6" Cheetara and Tygra, and the lizard cannon.

I need a Storm Charger as well. If anyone has them in their area and would pick one up for those of us in need that would be great. Please PM me. I've seen the 6" Cheetara in my area if anyone needs help with getting her.

Your best bet for finding a Storm Charger is to look at Walmarts that just started carrying Thundercats this year. The only new thing I've seen in Walmarts that carried them last year is the 6in classics and armor of omens. Any store that got in that pallet display for Christmas probably has too many thundertanks.

The Armor of Omens is not selling well at all from what I have seen. Every store I go to that has Thundercats has a couple just sitting on the lower shelf.

Honestly I don't know who it was at Bandai that thought it was a good idea to make this into a figure. It only got screen time for what, like 10 seconds?

I would have bought it if it wasn't a vastly oversized brick.

Personally, I like the Armor of Omens, however I wish it would have been smaller. In the show, the Armor of Omens wasn't that much bigger than Lion-O. It could have been 8-10 inches tall and been in more scale.

I think, like the GI Joe 30th Skystiker, it's a cool toy that is just too much than the average parent is willing to spend for their kids. That's why the Thundertank and Tower of Omens are still collecting dust.

And BTW- there are a few random Storm Chargers here in Indianapolis I might be willing to pick up and ship to some people. But, realize the shipping charges add to the overall cost.

I just have a feeling most of Wave 2 is somewhat rare. I don't know if they plan to release more or if what's out there is it.

to bad the storm charger doesnt do anything for me, otherwise I'd have one of those!

I also have the Armor of Omens. Not my favorite, but higher on the list then the Storm Charger or Tower of Omens.

Found 2 of them tonight along with Claudus and the Tiger Flyer. Hate to be an ass but I haven't bought it yet. Payday isn't until Friday. Don't wanna say where in case some fellow local fans go grab it before I do.

Yeah, my Wal-Mart here in Indianapolis had the last Storm Charger on clearance for $23.96 so I picked it up too. It's on Ebay now. Hopefully a collector/fan can find it that way. But people can't find it in some places and in other places they are literally collecting dust! Amazing!

They've really made some strange choices. Tygus? Armor of Omens? The Tower of Omens? None of these have factored very heavily into the plot. Before Journey to the Tower of Omens aired, I thought they might make a temporary headquarters there since they decided to give us a playset.

Jaga and the Berbils have had more screen time then the things I just mentioned, and I bet Berbils would be more popular with kids then Tygus... There have also been a pile of cool characters who were the focus of an entire episode, who would've made for great figures.
