I've collected S7 stuff a long time. They get a lot of top tier retro licenses I really like. My warning is manage your expectations.
They still charge boutique prices even though they are no longer a tiny boutique company selling very limited made to order figures. When retail giants like amazon and Target along with all the large online e-tailers like BBTS and Entertainment carry your stuff you are no longer a boutique company. Their prices are much higher than comparable companies like NECA would charge. Their bare bones $35 DX Thundercats figures are the same price as NECA's Dungeons and Dragons figures loaded with accessories and premium paint.
They also have less than stellar quality control. My DX Lion-O had reversed biceps. Fixable with boil and pop but still annoying. My retro MOTU style Conan had two left feet. The first wave of their retro 5 1/2 inch MOTU figures had issues with their hips breaking. My Hordak broke and She-Ra didn't come with her Sword of protection. I'm seeing reviews of the new 5 1/2 inch retro Thundercats with some pretty bad paint issues and fragile weapons.
I'm sure they will look very nice and have beautiful packaging. Just don't expect these to be toys and larger figures like Karza will be very expensive.

I heard they are going to be Reaction +, like the new Reaction 3.75" GI Joe figures they just solicited. So potentially much more articluated than the standard Reaction figures, and with O-Ring construction as mentioned above.

I have heard through the grapevine (or, I guess, the Memberberries) that these will be 0-Ring. Seeing as the latest Silverhawks figures are metallic, I have at least some optimism for the project.Leave a comment:

Intriguing--though the ReAction treatment is so much less than the original toys.Leave a comment:

Super7 to make Micronuats
I wonder if these will be Reaction style figures.
