We got 2 Lion-O releases on Super7's Thundercats Ultimates: the Evil Red Lion-O has the new Pinless Body and a couple of accessories that Normal Super7 Lion-O doesn't have.
But since the main difference between both S7 Lion-O figures lies on the pinless body, how can they make us buy him again...
By making him an $85 figure.
Nefty, are you high on catnip?
No, I'm not high on anything!! I'm just saying that Super7 might screw us over with the Lion-O 3.0 figure. 
By packing him with a somewhat articulated Snarf, and adding a buttload of accessories they can up the price to $85 quite easily.
Think about it:
4 heads:
Normal
Normal with glow-in-the-dark eyes for Sight beyond sight.
Screaming Red Lion-O head
Snarling Lion-O head
8 hands:
Normal grip
Vertical hinge grip for sword aloft poses
Relaxed hands
Fists
4 Claw Shields:
Relaxed
Hip
Fist
Firing claw
3 Swords of Omens:
Dagger mode
Sword Mode
Sight Beyond Sight mode with GITD eye of Thundera
6 POA Snarf:
4 Additional claw shields in LJN Red
3 Additional Swords of Omens in LJN Red and silver.
I feel like this isn't enough to bump the price to $85... I need more!!
Secret 5th head with Crown from annointment trials:
Removable cloth cape:
Removable Annointment Belt: it should have all the other Thundercat insigniae attached in order to have a true Lord of the Thubdercats Lion-O variant... Hell, this IS how he should be marketed as:
Lord of the Thundercats Lion-O.
The idea that you can remove the Lord parts hand have a normal Lion-O is a selling point. That way you can turn the LotTC Lion-O into thr default one, while the old version wears the LotTC crown and cape.
Then later on they can release a FULLY Articulated Snarf Ultimates figure... something similar to what I suggested in my theoretical Ultimates Snarf rant.
