    Are the 4" versions $7 too? I thought they were on clearance for $4? Or have the 6" figures come down in price?
    Uncle Pete is also carrying TC playsets. Saw Thundertank and Omens today, i think that they were about $20-$30 each. I only had a quick look on the way home.

    The winged version is not available here in the 4" line. You're right about the price.

    I paid $5 for wilykat since he's not available here.

    Wanted to complete the set and get Grune and winged Mumm-ra on evil-bay.

    That's right, it's just the one with the robe available here along with the larger version.

    I must admit. A lot fo cartoons I loved as a child, did not age well. Not neccessarily animation being a problem. Its more like the episodes themselves. Thundercats aged ok... I guess. Visionaries aged pretty badly as did Dino Riders, M.A.S.K., Silverhawks and a few more. But in the end, if you grew up with these series, I think you buy them more for the nostalgia and the 'Oh god, I can't believe I loved this as a child' factor.

    Yep, i totally agree. I tried to watch M A S K the other week and had to turn it off. All the action scenes were bad and the dialog is terrible.
    Loved that show though!!

    Ditto. Bought the box set & it was pure arse.
    Same with He Man & Voltron. I couldnt watch more than 2-3 episodes, it was a case of lather, rinse & repeat.
    Surprisingly, i enjoyed G.I Joe.

    Yes, it is hard to see why I loved those shows. Animation quality was inconsistent, plots were overly simple ... but then again, I think as a kid I only yearned to see good triumph over evil in the space of 30 minutes and so perhaps the cartoons were good enough in this sense.

    I still think Galaxy Rangers was one of the more interesting cartoons, but it could not escape the problem of inconsistent animation quality.
