Coming to San Diego Comic Con 2012 is the Masters of the Universe Classics exclusive from Mattel known as Vykron!
Based on the three prototype action figures of He-Man created by Roger Sweet, the set includes three sets of interchangeable armor, allowing you to display Vykron as any of the He-Man Trio figures.
Join me for an advanced look at this upcoming SDCC exclusive box set!
Update: Well, the plot thickens. ToyNewsI.com has just put up an article stating that they contacted Bandai asking about the rumors surrounding the demise of the line. Bandai states that they are still the master toy license holders for ThunderCats, and that they are currently focussing on rolling out product outside of the US.
That’s not a terrible amount of info, but at least we know Bandai hasn’t lost the license…yet. I’m still very interested to see how this all plays out, as I still find it highly unusual that Bandai hasn’t released or even shown us any new ThunderCats product since late last year.
Original Post: The future of the ThunderCats has been a hot topic as of late, and it seems to be really heating up.
The general consensus about the Bandai toy line has been that it’s in trouble. Ever since Toy Fair in February, where Bandai didn’t show off anything new for the brand, most collectors got the impression that the toy line was coming to an end.

ToyGuru has been on a roll with these videos lately! I like these. I think it’s a really good way to show off the figures and their features in a way the usual press release cannot.
This time around, Scott shows off the upcoming San Diego Comic Con exclusive Dark Knight Rises Bruce Wayne to Batman figure set. This set looks pretty cool, from what we can see. I like the packaging quite a bit. That alone would make for a cool display. I’m interested to see exactly how the figure looks in hand.
He also gives us a quick glimpse of the MOTU Classics Snake Men 2-Pack and Horde Prime. If you want a closer look at Horde Prime, my video review is here.
I think I need to have a talk with Scott about his video quality. 🙂
