MOTU Origins ThunderCats Wave 3 Official Details

The MOTU Origins ThunderCats crossover line just keeps getting more interesting, and after uncovering the official details for Panthor-Man, we’ve now dug up the scoop on Panthro version 2 and Lion-O version 2 from the upcoming Wave 3 assortment! What’s especially intriguing this time around are the subtle but telling differences between these figures and their first releases and clues tucked away in the listings point to some new design tweaks that collectors will be eager to compare side by side. Another big change comes in the pack-ins, as this wave will not include a minicomic, breaking from tradition. Instead, each figure will come with a collectible card, shifting the experience a bit but still giving fans something extra to hold onto and display. Typically, the collectible cards come with deluxe figures, like Skell-Ra, so it will be interesting to see what they look like. With Panthor-Man already making noise, Panthro v2 and Lion-O v2 round out this wave with updates that will have both MOTU and ThunderCats fans ready to sharpen their claws and dig into the details.

Wave 3 Figure Assortment Details

One of the biggest changes for MOTU Origins ThunderCats Wave 3 is the swap from minicomics to collectible cards, giving fans a fresh pack-in to look forward to with each figure. These cards add a different layer of collectability to the line, while still offering that extra bonus outside of the figure itself. What’s also worth calling out is the official description for both Lion-O and Panthro version 2, which specifically notes that they come “in colors that pay homage to the original ThunderCats TV series.” This verbiage makes it clear that the updates are more than just a minor repaint—they’re deliberate nods to the classic cartoon, which will definitely resonate with fans who grew up watching the show and want their figures to align even closer with the animation they remember.
