Hey guys, I'm trying to assemble as many pics as possible of 1980s ThunderCats toys on display on toy shelves back in the day... Can you help me add to this gallery?

Well Supernaturals was a bit like Visionaries because of their holograms. But technically Infaceables would be a bit more like Visionaries as they kind of changed into animals. They had a vacuum suction gimmick which turned the characters' face more animalistic. I never had any of the figures but I had one of the vehicles, the Horrible Hammer.

Interesting the "Infaceables" never had an animated series! Wasn't that the whole purpose of a toy line in the 80's.

BTW, this is a neat thread! I rarely remember anything from the 80's being born in 85 I just have pictures showing I played with ThunderCats and SilverHawks. But when the TMNT came around I remember them like it was yesterday.

Oh! I remember my mom told me a story that I threw my Lion-O figure out of the window while she was driving and I got a spanking for that lol

Also at Disney world (my older brother and mother) tell me this story all the time, I was in a stroller and I took a handful of Disney character figurines then put them in my fanny pack! We walk out the store and she looked down at me playing with those toys, she tore me up! But I still have those figurines to this day lol

Thanks for sharing... :thumbsup:

I think Infaceables used parts of Blackstar figures....in Greece, the Infaceables were released as Blackstar second wave....

This is nothing new but you can do a screen capture at 1:25. It's a pan shot with the sword of omens and the thundertanks/fist pounder. It's frim FAO Schwartz
