Thunder, Thunder, ThunderCats — The Junior Cats of the Team! ⚡🐱
Before there was a full Thundera generation of Cats, there were two mischievous young companions who tagged along on the ThunderCats' greatest adventures. This 1985 LJN Telepix Toys ThunderCats WilyKit & WilyKat 4-Inch Action Figure Pair brings the youngest members of the team to your vintage collection — a genuine piece of mid-'80s Saturday morning cartoon history.
WilyKit and WilyKat are the young ThunderCat companions who served as sidekick figures to two of the team's core adult heroes — WilyKit originally packaged as a companion figure with Cheetara, and WilyKat originally packaged as a companion figure with Tygra. These PVC figures didn't feature the Battle-Matic arm action of their adult counterparts, but they were an essential part of completing the full ThunderCats roster and remain beloved by fans of the original animated series for their spunky, resourceful personalities and their signature hoverboard escapades.
The ThunderCats toy line only lasted three years from 1985 to 1987, but it remains one of the most fondly remembered toy brands of that era — with LJN producing figures directly tied to the beloved animated series that captivated a generation of kids. Nearly 40 years later, complete examples of the line — especially the smaller companion figures like WilyKit and WilyKat — have become genuinely difficult to track down.
Condition — Please Read:
These figures are vintage from 1985 and have been removed from their packaging and played with. Honestly, the paint has worn off in several significant spots on both figures — this is well-loved vintage vinyl with genuine wear, not a display-quality pair. They are in decent overall shape but may be good candidates for restoration if you're into that side of the hobby. Please review the listing photos carefully for a complete and honest look at the condition of both figures before purchasing, and feel free to reach out with any questions.
Whether you're a ThunderCats collector filling out your original 1985-87 LJN lineup, a restoration hobbyist looking for a fun vintage repaint project, or simply a longtime fan who remembers WilyKit and WilyKat from the animated series and wants them back in your collection — this pair is ready to join the fight against the Mutants of Plun-Darr, wear and all.
