The Lion O statue is based on the ThunderCats comic cover by Ed Mcguiness. And it's a freaking dead on match guys!

My personal opinion... The pcs Lion O is a perfect 10+!

And I almost broke ribs laughing when the mezco sculpt was compared to it!
Joe Biden? Is that you? Didn't your mother ever tell you that being rude, arrogant and self-important will get you nowhere. Please show a little respect for the opinions of others; art is subjective and there's no reason to get all rude and haughty when other collectors' opinion differs from yours..

I happily own Lion-O and he's a strong 7.5/8. I love the pose and don't mind the fabric.

For me, if it had a slightly more 80's cartoon feel to it, it would have been a 8.5/9.

I give it a 9. Something you don't really get if you're just looking at pictures, no matter how many, you don't realize it has a good presence to it. As a kid who grew up liking Thundercats, there is no better Thundercats high end collectible imo.

About a 7 for the exclusive. It's a shame the base is not up to the job with all that polystone on top. The base is front heavy.

That Mezco version is ok I guess. But I'm beginning to think a Japanese company needs to do statues of the Thundercats. They would be PVC but the cartoon was animated in Japan. Maybe they would be able to capture the style of the original cartoon in statue form.
