Finally, some real and fantastic news. Fans of Mezco’s 14″ Mega Scale Thundercats look to be in for a real treat. MTV Geek got a behind the scenes look at the making of the Mega Scale Mumm-Ra, and with it comes a first look at PANTHRO! Not only that, but we get a fleeting glimpse at, what appears to be, a Mega Scale Mumm-Ra Mummy! Mumm-Ra is scheduled for release in May, with Panthro coming later this year.
We’ve mirrored the pics, click the headline of the story to check them out.
MTVGeek just posted an article with some cool making of photos
MTV Geek Exclusive: Panthro and Mumm-Ra Join Mezco Toyz’ ThunderCats Line!
also getting Mumm-Ra (decrepped form) as an SDCC exclusive.
As for the $40 for Mumm-Ra. A little disappointed since I paid $24.99 at TRU and the SDCC version was $40.
I guess the cloth cape and bandages makes it more expensive?
Totally pumped about these!
Was that Mumm-Ra's mummy form? I kinda thought it was Jaga. It was kinda hard to tell lol
Anyone having problems with the link now? Perhaps they shared it too soon?
Blast it! I was already gonna buy the TMNT Classics,and the Transformers combaticons, now I'm gonna want to get this too.
Working again...GREAT PICS!
If I get only one of these Mezco mega-scale figures, it'll be that glorious looking Panthro. I imagine he should cost the same as Lion-O did, aka twenty-five bucks at TRU. I might even get him with my birthday money this year.
Mumm-Ra is looking good, but since I doubt I'll get Lion-O, I'll probably skip him too. I like that they've got a mummy version in the works, and even though I doubt I would get it, I was hoping they would keep SDCC exclusives to being repaints/retools.
It should be interesting to see who they do for next year. Would be great if they kept making one hero and one villain per year, but it wouldn't surprise me if next year's two were Cheetara and Tygra.
These mezzo figures are SO awesome, the only bad thing about them is they take up so much shelf space!!! Otherwise they are amazing!
Thanks for posting the link. Panthro looks fantastic.
Yeah I'm really loving that Panthro. I need to get some of these figures. They'd be great for displaying. They look almost like statues.
Can't wait to see what Cheetara will look like.
If anyone is interested the sculptor for these figures is on Deviantart and he posted a bigger version of one of the images on his gallery today.
