![]() The toy colorway for his hair is great because it looks like he has cupcake icing dabbed on his shoulders. Nevertheless he makes a pretty nice ape person without the helmet. ![]() I’m not entirely sure if that is better or not because I haven’t really found a great way to put it on so that it looks flush. Whereas the standard Monkian had a helmet permanently attached to his head, the toy version allows you to remove it. Regardless of where he ranks, though, I was excited to take a look at this mold again. He won’t ever take number one because Slithe is the best ThunderCat. I’d consider the original Ultimates Monkian one of the top three figures in the entire line. Expect really bright colors and wacky new heads, as Super7 attempts to replicate the magic of the vintage line. Monkian and Cheetara are part of this “toy homage” wave which also includes Lion-O and Mumm-Ra. I’d say things are going well for ThunderCats collectors. We’re currently seeing the release of the sixth wave along with a gigantic ThunderTank that would be the centerpiece of any collection, and on top of that Super7 has solicited three additional waves for preorder. The run hasn’t always been perfect, but I think it’s reasonable to say that no modern day company has given the ThunderCats property a more fair shake than Super7.
