Number two in my little project. *Cheetara isn't far behind*

Panthro is a mix of Bobby Lashley, Jericho, and William Regal Build-n-Brawl figures with the Panthro mouth area and ears sculpted on. The belt and straps are from transparency paper, with the spikes and piping sculpted on. I sculpted the split toe boots on him and added string as the wrappings at the top and ankles. Lastly, the nunchucks are from the ML movie Daredevil with paws sculpted on.

Panthro was my favorite as a kid!

PERFECTION! I don't know how these could be any better... unless they were on my shelf!

"And keep your foot off that blasted somo flange!" (Panhtro out-take)

I know they're probably not even on your list, but I'd love to see these guys up against some Lunataks!

I have ideas for Jackalman and Slythe so far. Monkian shouldn't be too hard, as long as I can find a good base body for him. I'm thinking an Asohka figure for Wilykit. Wilykat has me stumped though.

oohhh emmm geee. MUNDY imho these are probably the best customs I've ever seen you do. Panthro is near perfection! Who owns the copyrights to Thundercats? They really need to see how these toys could look at 1:18 scale.

Keep em coming!

Hot damn! :monocle:

Panthro was my fave as a kid as well, and this turned out better than I had imagined.

Also, I think you oucld mod an Ashoka body for both Kit and Kat. I mean, he was kind of effeminate anyway.

Any plans for Mumm-Ra?

I think the latest Toyfair had a 1 page article that they got picked up and are going into production. Not 100percent sure though. I'll recheck 2day.

Hoooooooo!

Yeah, he rocks. Loving the figure itself, but the accessories put this guy (and Tygra) way over the top.

Well done.

Post subject:  Re: Thundercats Panthro

I think you used the BnB parts really well hear. It makes him stand out as shorter but thicker than Tygra. The nunchuks and straps you made for him also look really cool.

When you get these all together you should do a LOL cat poster with them too.

Do you sculpt the heads yourself and will the Evil Mutants be far behind?

Post subject:  Re: Thundercats Panthro

Hey MUNDY I know you're very accurate with the strings on his calves and ankles but would you consider using the greenstuff to mold the strings instead? It would make it look...neater?

I know I'm probably in the minority on this one.
