ThunderCats burst onto the scene back in 1985 and was a hit animated series that blended sci-fi, fantasy, and superheroes to create a legendary and unforgettable adventure. The story follows the heroic ThunderCats, who are feline-like humanoid aliens that are fleeing their destroyed home planet, Thundera. They find themselves crash-landing on a strange new world called Third Earth. Leading the team is Lion-O, the young Lord of the ThunderCats, who also wields the mystical, legendary Sword of Omens. Similar to Masters of the Universe's He-Man, this mystical weapon grants him strength, insight, and the iconic battle cry: "ThunderCats, Ho!" Alongside the show, the original ThunderCats toy line by LJN became a massive hit in the mid-'80s.

This popular 80s franchise featured detailed action figures of the main characters, vehicles, and even playsets like the Cat's Lair, which Super7 has brought back to life with more detail, larger figures, and even throwback recolors. Lion-O is now back for Super7's new, cheaper Deluxe line, which cuts back on the accessories and gives the ThunderCats fans. Releasing exclusively at Target is the newest ThunderCats ULTIMATES! Lion-O (Toy Recolor), which includes just a shield and sword. These figures come in simple card back packaging, which is elegant, and pre-orders are already live for this simplified rerelease for $35 and an October 2026 release.
