I will say, however, originally I wasn’t going to get this wave, but after handling Monkian and Cheetara I went back and placed preorders for Lion-O and Mumm-Ra. I think that hardcore ThunderCats fans will be really into these while collectors that are less invested can pass without feeling like there is a hole in their collection. But I think that’s perfectly fine, this can be a reprieve wave for some. These sets aren’t going to be for everybody. If standard colors Cheetara is more your style Entertainment Earth also has that available. The only place you really take a hit here, as well as with Monkian, is the accessory count which is pretty minimal compared to the mainline release.Ĭheetara is currently in stock at Entertainment Earth, using my affiliate link you can save 10% and get free shipping on your order which brings her price to $49.49. I actually really enjoy this figure, maybe even more than the standard Cheetara. However, having her in hand I feel like that sculpt hits different with those bright, bright colors. The head sculpt showcased in the renders used to solicit the line weren’t moving the needle for me. This is one I wasn’t entirely sold on originally. Like Monkian, Cheetara is a recolor of the normal version with two all new heads. Is that a bad thing? Absolutely not, this is a vintage toy homage so the camp is appreciated.Īs of publication Monkian is in stock at Entertainment Earth, if you follow my provided affiliate link you’ll also get 10% off and free shipping which would bring the figure down to $49.49. The toy colorway for his hair is great because it looks like he has cupcake icing dabbed on his shoulders. Nevertheless he makes a pretty nice ape person without the helmet. I’m not entirely sure if that is better or not because I haven’t really found a great way to put it on so that it looks flush. Whereas the standard Monkian had a helmet permanently attached to his head, the toy version allows you to remove it. Regardless of where he ranks, though, I was excited to take a look at this mold again. He won’t ever take number one because Slithe is the best ThunderCat. I’d consider the original Ultimates Monkian one of the top three figures in the entire line. Expect really bright colors and wacky new heads, as Super7 attempts to replicate the magic of the vintage line. Monkian and Cheetara are part of this “toy homage” wave which also includes Lion-O and Mumm-Ra. I’d say things are going well for ThunderCats collectors. We’re currently seeing the release of the sixth wave along with a gigantic ThunderTank that would be the centerpiece of any collection, and on top of that Super7 has solicited three additional waves for preorder.
