Bandai UK has posted a video on YouTube of their Augmented Reality Packaging. The video shows how you will be able to use a mobile device (so long as it has a camera) to check out a full view of a toy without taking it out of the packaging. They use Lion-O to showcase how it can work. Check it out below.
Hey there fans and readers, we’re back again with another awesome prize to give away! Once again, forum member LiarDice Films has provided us with an awesome piece of Thundercats memorabilia to offer up to the great fans of Thundercats.
We have an original, modern Thundercats: Season 1 Episode 1 – The Sword of Omens Part 1 Script, signed by King Claudus (and original Lion-O voice actor) himself, Larry Kenney. Not only that, but this script is slightly different than the episode that aired!
How do you win this awesome prize? Simple, all you need to do is take a photo of your best Thundercats “fight scene” using your own Thundercats figures (modern, vintage or mixed between the two).
For rules stop by the Thundercats Script Contest Thread to read more and post your entry. For a look at the prize, click the headline of the story.

We will have a full review and gallery soon.

Icon Heroes sent out a press release about their upcoming Cats’ Lair Statue.
Thundercats Arrive Home to the Cat’s Lair Environment Statue
Honolulu, HI, December 04, 2011 –(PR.com)– Because every hero needs a place to unwind, Icon Heroes created the museum replica of the Cat’s Lair. Made of heavy weight polyresin, this environment statue measures a massive 7.9” wide x 11” deep x 9.5” tall and weighs approximately 6 pounds. A perfect backdrop for your Thundercats station figures, this environment is detailed with towering archways, mechanical like claws, and blazing red cat eyes. The Cat’s Lair is the pivotal training ground, operations base, and sleeping quarters for the Thundercats. Sold exclusively by Action Figure Xpress and limited to only 600 pieces, this individually numbered collectors piece is a rare find.
“We were so pleased with the success of the Action Figure Xpress San Diego Comic Con exclusive Lion-O and Mumm-Ra. We hoped an iconic piece could be the focal point of the collection,” said Pat Wang, President. “With Icon Heroes’ addition of the Cat’s Lair Environment Statue, this collection brings the entire screen to life.”
