The Story

Add the reptilian menace of Plun-Darr to your vintage ThunderCats collection with this original 1985 S-S-Slithe figure from LJN. As the cunning leader of the Mutants and chief antagonist to Lion-O and his team, Slithe brought slithering villainy to Saturday morning screens and toy boxes across the 1980s. This carded example preserves the iconic LJN packaging artwork that made ThunderCats one of the defining action figure lines of the era.

The figure remains securely affixed to its original backing card, showcasing the bold character art and ThunderCats branding that captivated young collectors nearly four decades ago. While this example shows honest wear consistent with its age and a CC-5 Fair grade—including card creasing, bubble scuffing, and edge wear—it retains the nostalgic appeal that makes vintage LJN ThunderCats figures highly sought after by fans of 1980s pop culture and animation history.

Whether you're completing your Mutants roster, building a comprehensive ThunderCats display, or seeking an affordable entry point into this beloved vintage line, S-S-Slithe represents an essential character from one of the most memorable toy franchises of the Reagan era. The figure's articulation and sculpt capture the distinctive reptilian design that made the character instantly recognizable to fans of the animated series.

The Grade, Explained

Every graded piece is our honest in-house call — not third-party slabbed. Here's exactly where this one lands, and why.

  1. CC-10 Pristine
  2. CC-9 Near Mint
  3. CC-8 Excellent
  4. CC-7 Very Good
  5. CC-6 Good
  6. CC-5 Fair
  7. CC-4 Poor / Display Only

This piece: CC-5 — Fair

Heavy wear. Multiple creases, significant corner damage, possible small tears. Bubble may be partially detached, cracked, or heavily yellowed. Still carded but shows its age hard.

Condition notes:
Bottom right section of card is creased. Previous price sticker is present in top right corner of card. Several crease marks are present on, most noticeably the back. Top edge of card is slightly bent back. Plastic bubble has several scuff/scratch marks.

The Stuff You’re Probably Wondering Before You Smash ‘Buy Now’

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How Fast Do We Ship?

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.

How Do We Pack Orders?

Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.

Are You Actually Collectors Too?

Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎

What's Your Return Policy?

30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.

Pre-Orders: How They Work

Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.

Still Stumped? Let’s Talk.

We’re real collectors who actually answer — no bots, no scripts, no hold music. Shoot us a message and we’ll get back faster than you can refresh your tracking number.
