Thunder……Thunder……Thundercats….HOOOOOO!
We are excited to bring your our latest update for LJN’s Thundercats line! Since the values of certain items can fluctuate greatly over time, The Toy Collectors Guide prides itself in keeping up with the most current market trends and any shifts that may affect the various secondary market values. There are many factors that drive those trends and shifts which include, an item’s time period, scarcity, consumer demand and overall condition. The good news for Thundercats’ collectors is there’s always a big demand for items from this line, as LJN created some truly iconic toys.
The original Thundercats line has always remained popular, but the newer animated series that ran from 2011 to 2012 and another in 2020 on the Cartoon Network, certainly revived the franchise and introduced the team to a entirely new generation. Whether you like these new series or not, they certainly reached plenty of new fans, and brought lots of new toys to stores again, with the most popular being the Thundercats Ultimates and ReAction lines by Super 7. In addition, a new live action Thundercats movie has been in the works for quite some time, so fingers crossed.
Since the original LJN Thundercats line has never been re-released, unlike many other popular toy lines, so the only way to get those original toys of our favorite “Third Earth” residents is buying the originals from the 1980’s. This is great news for collectors of the original Thundercats line, as fans and collectors are always trying to acquire the original toys of their childhood. Many of the original Thundercats toys have shown steady movement (especially Series 3 items from 1987) as carded and boxed items are getting harder and harder to find. Loose versions of the original figures and accessories are also showing solid upward movement. Overall, the LJN Thundercats line continues to see very nice growth and will only increase with time.
