Today we’ve got two updates from Diamond Select Toys via the Art Asylum site. First up, we’ve got a new Thundercats Minimates box set arriving this Fall. And if you need a fix for Thundercats now, I also came across some deals at ActionFigureXpress.
Featuring “new” ThunderCats Bengali, Lynx-O, Pumyra and Ratar-O, as well as a non-poseable minifigure of the Berbil named Ro-Bear Bert, this box set is available to all comic shops and specialty store retailers through Diamond Comic Distributors’ Previews catalog. Now available for pre-order, the set will ship in the fall.
The three new ThunderCats in this set – blacksmith Bengali, healer Pumyra and wise, sightless Lynx-O – were introduced in the five-part 1985 movie ThunderCats Ho! as three Thunderans who came to Third Earth in the wake of Thundera’s destruction. Ro-Bear Bert was on of the two Berbils who saved the trio from the doomed planet, and Ratar-O was the Mutant commander who sought to capture them for the evil Mumm-Ra.

AFX is one of the online retailers where you can pre-order the Thundercats Ho! box set, and they also have two pretty good deals right now.
- AFX Exclusive ThunderCats Cats Lair Statue and Minimates w/ FREE Ma-Mutt Figure by Icon Heroes – $99 (normally $141.99)
- ThunderCats Minimates Series 2 and 3 Box Sets by Icon Heroes – $33.59 (normally $41.99)
AFX is home to the ThunderCats Cats Lair, which normally goes for $99 on its own, so the first deal is like getting the two Minimates box sets for free. And the second deal is for the Minimates on their own – but you only get Ma-Mutt if you go for the big deal.
Happy shopping!
