1986 LJN Toys Thundercats Rataro-O AFA 75 EX+/NM

A rodent rogue with grading grit and variant mystique! 🐀 The 1986 LJN Toys Thundercats Ratar-O, graded AFA 75 EX+/NM with subgrades C75/B75/F85, is a mid-tier archival example from the 14-back card wave—featuring the silver daggers variant and the elusive “without eyes” paint omission, a detail that’s sparked debate among variant hunters and production historians.

🧠 Variant Highlights

• Silver Daggers: Ratar-O’s weapons came in both silver and gold variants, with silver being the earlier and more desirable release.

• Without Eyes: Some production runs omitted the black pupils, leaving the figure with blank sockets—likely a factory paint error or early mold test. This variant is documented but not officially cataloged by LJN, making it a niche collector’s prize.

• 14-Back Card: Indicates the second wave of Thundercats figures, showcasing 14 characters on the cardback—ideal for lineup-building and packaging variant research.
