  1. Not meaning to criticize. To me, this line seemed very well planned out and that plan seemed to have a goal of being "complete" (granted, my knowledge of Thundercats doesn't go very deep so I don't doubt there are fans out there who may disagree on it being "complete.") I understand their reasons for not running all lines that way (don't want to over promise, need to anchor waves, need to spread out important characters, etc, etc) it just makes me happier when we get a product released like this.

  2. By the spotlight, I meant the company's spotlight, with guest appearances in other titles, merchandise and ad campaigns, not just having a book.

    Guest Appearances

    This one is significant because it's a media tie in with a popular kid's TV series, the Electric Company.

    I'm not going to list all the guest appearances, it would fill the page. According to comic vine, Hellcat appears in 866 issues.

    In 1972, Marvel made a push to cash in on the feminist movement with several female led titles. "The Cat" was front and center in that promotion. That's pretty significant.

    I guarantee there are other ads, but I'm not going to waste time looking for them.

    So again, when you say:

    Hellcat [has] never really been in the spotlight in any way

    and using your criteria for "spotlight", you are just plain wrong.

    Came across this at TRU. It's from the Dub Garage Diecast Collection. The package says it's 1:32 scale and "wide body" style, which to me gives it a bit of the deformed look like Minimate vehicles have. It seems slightly bigger than other 1:32 scale vehicles. Unfortunately like other 1:32 vehicles, the interior doesn't have enough room to fit a mate. But it might be nice to add to a street scene or something. There's also a truck and an suv in the line.
