I have so far only Battle-Cat Man and He-Man, but I quite like them!

I’m kind of fascinated with this alternate design for He-Man, Thundarian and Eternian.

Battle C M is really cool, too, but one of his extra claws broke off, which bums me out.

I’m still resisting getting more of them and waiting for Panthor Man for now. Just too much stuff at home… but yeah, I like what I got!

Interesting sculpts, with the bigger arms… a tiny bit of CGI influence here, besides a pinch of Masterverse and of course a whole lot of Origins.

Another stand-out figure from this line is Panthro.

He turned out perfect. Headsculpt, unique tooling, paint apps (especially his chest area), and weapons.

If you are on the fence, display space be damned, I highly recommend the rest of the line!

BTW, 2025 is the ThunderCat's 40th Anniversary! 🤩

I think as a Panthro figure hes fantastic, but his MOTU gear is where he falls apart. Its like we was designed first, then they came up with better ideas when they were working on the rest and never thought to go back to Panthro.

This artwork is gorgeous AF.

I would love an Artbook dedicated to the MOTUO crossover lines.

@ornclown Origins and Masterverse have an art book but the need a second and third volume at this point.

Toy Habits serving up some hot disappointment. 

https://toyhabits.com/motu-origins-thundercats-wave-3-official-details/

They claim that Thundercats wave 3 will have collector card instead of mini comics. 

@smitty-81 Very disappointing, if so. Sounds like wave 3 really is cutting all sorts of corners. (Come to think of it, the story in Wave 2 was a real ending).

This sets a bad precedent for single carded Origins… although I guess WWEternia was just a 4-pager leaflet.

I hope this is not a sign for other Origins mini comics. I‘ll riot!

@cosmic i don't think it's a sign of things to come for all Origins mini comics I just think that the Masters of the Universe Thundercats story ended, they didn't plan for a third wave and this is just filler, until they can come up with something better.

@smitty-81 I like how you’re thinking.

I do wonder if there will be anything more after wave 3, or if that wave already IS the bonus.

F**K THAT!!!

I want, nay, NEED this line to continue!

This is legitimately the most excited I've been for a MOTU line of figures since 2008!!

If Mattel would hold off on the (ridiculous, IMO) Transformers x MOTU line and focus their efforts on TC, then I wouldn't be having so many sleepless nights...

They need to concentrate on ONE crossover line at a time... like they did with WWE, Sun-Man, and TMNT. I don't know what goes on over there at Mattel, but I would like the resources needed to be allocated to TC before TF.

@ornclown 

I would love for MOTU × Thundercats lasted as long as ToG did, same for the Transformers, and you're right one thing at a time would be ideal. 

Everything I see with Thundercats suggest that to was planned to be just two waves and wave three is a rush job, maybe, hopefully to buy time for them to get new molds made so we can get more than two bad guys in the line.

And MOTWWEU was cut short because of disagreements between Mattel, WWE and Walmart. 

BBTS just listed the latest wave for pre-order:

@ornclown I got my Panthor Man ordered (together with CC Randor). That one is a must, but I might take of his helmet, so he is not an *exact* mirror image of Battle-Cat Man 😅

I truly hope that this isn't the end of this awesome collaboration...  

Same, They NEED to make the Third Eternian Evil Warriors seen in the art on the wave one and two figures.

Yeah, I went ahead and ordered the whole wave... mostly to support this crossover. I do like the look of Panthor Man, and I too will remove his helmet... and his claws. I think I'll give him a club from my fodder bin... he looks like a club / mace kinda guy...

I completely agree with this!

For reference. 

@ornclown One of the claws of my Battle-Cat Man broke off, so I’m not going to use them henceforth I think.

Too bad Lion-O’s “gold” is so meh in the final version of this repaint,… but the Panthro repaint is kind of interesting, with a grey body instead of blue.

@cosmic Agreed. That Panthro looks pretty keen!

Paulmartstore.com has wave 3

I got my wave 3 Panthro and did some mixing in matching. He's definitely a "sidegrade" from the wave 2 figure. 

I got two so I could do this...
