Super 7 threw the gauntlet down with their main display this year at SDCC. As cool as the Cat’s Lair was, there was so much other goodness and crowds that I didn’t get to photograph it all. Check out some of the highlights!
They had the Snarf wave on hand from ThunderCats and I was especially impressed with how the articulation was working on Snarf (snarf snarf) and the prototype of Hachi Man was so sharp.
One of the bigger surprises for me was the toy colors SilverHawks. I was told that the vac metal will allow for full movement which was really surprising to hear. I had skipped these figures before, but I think I might need these shiny beauties.
The Cat’s Lair is justifiably the big headline from SDCC so far and this is truly an instance where the photos just don’t convey the impressive size. It was pretty mind-blowing to see and it’s just one of the ballsiest moves I’ve seen from a toy company in recent years. It’s definitely not for everyone, but will make a stunning centerpiece for some ThunderCat collections. I especially like the way the side cliffs look with the rocky texture highlighted by a wash. I also just love the computer consoles in the command center with their perfect ’80s computer detail and readouts.
