Any word on whether this is stylized like MOTU or will it be classic like that Harding sculpt?

I have the PCS statues and would have been completely
happy with them if hey just made Panthro to (somewhat) complete the team. Bengali was nice, but no Panthro sucks.
I absolutely hate the Sideshow stylized statues.
Please make CLASSIC statues.

How so? Cheetara and Mumm-Ra were very well-received. Lion-O's reception was mixed, but ultimately it was serviceable. Thundercats are pretty niche and aren't going to sell very well--just like He-Man--when you compare it to Marvel and DC. He-Man and She-Ra were well-received, and they handed off the MOTU line, too. Why? Because 80's cartoons have a relatively small fanbase when compared to Marvel/DC characters in general. Or Star Wars.

I’ll agree on Mum-Ra. The issue is the lead character should be the center-piece for the entire line and they royally screwed that up. Enough so that it killed any further interest in the line from collectors which likely hurt sales of the other pieces. The only reason Cheetara was made was in order to help boost Lion-O. I even remember Igo showing the cardboard Cheetara as part of the Lion-O reveal video to try and garner some enthusiasm. Lion-O killed that line. There is zero point to a Thundercats line with just three of the characters IMO.

I think ThunderCats fans will be very happy with the AD on these. I have to say I have never watched an episode. eeek

I gave up my pre-order with Iron Studios for these. (I really don't like their Cheetara and she is my favorite character in the series though I love how IS did the other Thundercats)
