Mattel Classics Club Third Earth Thundercats Pumyra Action Figure

At the 2015 San Diego Comic Convention (SDCC) Mattel surprised everyone by anouncing that they picked up the ThunderCats license and a series of figures, based on the classic cartoon, was being planned! The figures came to fans in late 2016 in a subscription called Club Third Earth!

Pumyra was one of the three refugees that escaped the destruction of Thundera with the assistance of a Berbil spacecraft, and she ended up on an island with fellow refugees Bengali and Lynx-O. After being rescued from the Berserkers and proving herself in battle, she was made a full-fledged ThunderCat. She lives at the Tower of Omens with Lynx-O, Bengali and Snarfer. It was alluded to in the series that Pumyra was a healer on Old Thundera. She is known for her ability to leap great distances and heights. She most often flies in one of the side pods of the Thunderstrike. She was left to guard Cat's Lair when the other ThunderCats returned to New Thundera.

Pumyra was the fourth ThunderCats action figure produced by Mattel Toys as part of their "Classics" line. The figure was based on the original 1980s cartoon version of the Pumyra. The figures stood 6 inches tall and had multiple points of articulation as well as having a number of accessories.

Features

Poseable limbs, head and torso: The figure has 13 points of articulation (neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, hip, knees, ankles). The articulation allows the figure to be posed in a number of action stances.

Accessories

1. Interchangeable hands: The figure came with a pair of extra hands that could be swapped. Some of the hands had closed grips to allow the included weapons and accessories to fit into them.

2. Cat's Tail Whipcord (open version): The figure came with the weapon that was used by Pumyra in the cartoon. It was made of brown plastic with the tips painted white.

3. Cat's Tail Whipcord (tied version): The second version of the whipcord had a peg and hole and could be snapped around the figure's waist. It was also made of brown plastic.

4. Totem of Dera: The figure came with the Totem of Dera, one of the items included in the Treasure of Thundera. The accessory had a golden brown handle holding a blue crystal.

5. Boomerang: The figure also came with a four pronged boomerang. Made of silver plastic, the Boomerang had a bright red circle in the center.

Packaging

Pumyra came packaged in a window box with a clear plastic front. The window box itself comes packaged inside an black shipper box with the Eye of Thundera logo printed on it in grey.

Notes of Interest

• When Mattel first unveiled the unpainted Pumyra prototype, fans were not happy with the face of the figure. Mattel then corrected this and revealed a modified Pumyra prototype shortly.
• One of the accessories included with the figure was the Totem of Dera. However, in the cartoon, the artifact only appears in one episode and it is Snarfer who uses it in that story. Pumyra did not even appear in the episode.
• Another accessory also included with the figure was a Boomerang which never appeared in the cartoon series.
• The Pumyra figure was taller than the Mattel Lion-O figure even though in the cartoon he is taller than her.
