The figures are quite small, very similar to the Ben 10 toyline but much more articulated and very well detailed (if the identical figures make it to production). Panthro has scars throughout his massive body and the were actually textured instead of just painted.

The classic Lion-O was looking very loyal to the original design, I could easily compare this figure's picture with the MOTU Classics toyline.

I'm pretty much positive... but a little bit concerned about the classic: I'm not quite sure if it's only going to be Lion-O! :/

Thanks for all this info, it sounds very positive indeed! Seeing these, I'm actually developing a very positive feeling about this revamp, visually at least it looks as though the powers-that-be have really got a good sense of what made ThunderCats so good (and what we fans love about it)!

Take care...
