Thundercats, Ho!



I said in my post the other day how much I really wanted one, and then as if the planets all aligned, I got one!

Thunder!

Thundercats!


Ho!!!


LJN's Sword Of Omens is beastly awesome! One of my all time favorite wish list toys. Tracking this thing down has been quite the challenge. Especially in working condition.


As you can see, I even purchased a sword stand to display it on. Both items cost me less than $100.00 combined. You can barely find the sword for under that price - Let alone in working condition with a good "cats" logo on it. This one has its flaws, but hey, it's a toy that was designed to get banged up. It's not going to be pristine unless it's mint in the package.

It's such a simplistic toy when you get down to it, but it's so freaking cool at the same time!



I've added this to my Thundercats Order of Battle post for "quick" reference in the future.

Thundercats - Sword of Omens (LJN)

Equally as fun as wielding Kenner's Han Solo Blaster was LJN's Sword of Omens - The legendary weapon of the Thundercats. With its battery operated light up feature, and overall great design, kids could spend hours whipping this thing back and forth!

Sadly, I never had one as a child to do so, but it has always been a number one on my "must get" list. Unfortunately, at $250.00 to $300.00 for a loose / working one, it's also one of those, "maybe later" items.


As I was typing this post up, I actually got lost for a few minutes, just staring at the picture here. This thing is plastic beauty from tip to handle. The packaging is perfect, and seriously, can I gush over the actual sword any more than I have?

This one is definitely on my list to get prior to the end of the year.
