It came from the Toy Chest: I got the moves like Jaga...

 


When you think of Jaga from Thundercats, chances are that you think of the grey and blue Ghost that give Lion-O some wise advice. Rarely you think of his living version... well, guess which one Super7 made.

Leon-O: Espada del Augurio, quiero ver mas allá de lo evidente.
Jaga:Detente, Leon-O! El Ojo de Thundera no debe ser usado para fines perversos.
Leon-O: ¡Por Jaga, estás vivo, Jaga!
Snarf: *Snarf!* Oye Nefty, tienes que arreglar el lenguaje. Tu audiencia no habla Español...
Nefty: Shut up you fuck! What the hell!? I'm speaking English! Did I just made a reversed reference to Bedazzled?
Recap time? Recap time.
So Lion-O was trying to use the sword of Omens to spy on Wilykit... Jaga stops him because even if Lion-O is younger than Kit, he's in an adult body and it's creepy. Lion-O is shocked that Jaga is alive, because hehe'not blue and grey.

Articulation
:
Exactly the same articulation as past Thundercats figures, sadly, Jaga has pinless joints, which are pretty, but feel super fragile. I'm afraid of the knees breaking while posing. This issue worries me for characters like Cheetara Tygra and even Mumm-Ra the ever-living. 
4.0
Lion-O: What's wrong, Jaga?
Jaga: The portal between the living and the dead is closing and I need to cross to the side of the dead.
Lion-O: How can I help Jaga?
Snarf: I'm more worried about Jaga's hat turning into a shimmering *Snarf!* wank rag!



Paint and sculpt:
I'm not feeling the Living Jaga paintjob. It doesn't help that his paintjob is a bit sloppy. The sculpt is good though. I'm a bomb here but it's mostly because I want the spirit version. Don't get me wrong the paint job is still bad and it would have still being bad even if it has the spirit colors.
4.0
Jaga: The Sword, give it to me!
Lion-O: Sure thing, Jaga!
Snarf: Lion-O No! This smells like some *Snarf!* Mumm-Ra bullshit! *Snarf!*
Jaga and Lion-O: SHUT UP, YOU FUCK!!


Accessories:
Sword of Omens in both modes
4 gripping hands 
Magic cloth hand
Emaciated head
Helmless head
While he feels a bit bare-bones there's not much that you could have passed in with him... well there is one thing:
Sword of Omens in SIGHT BEYOND SIGHT Mode.
5.0
Lion-O: Let me help you up, Jaga...
Jaga: Thank you, Lion-O...
Thunder, Thunder, Thunder!! Thundercats Hooooooooooo!
Snarf: Let's  kill da ho!


Overall
Jaga gets a 4.33 as his final score. I honestly don't know how to feel about him. His fragility at the knees scares me. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm starting to like the cloth cape a lot more than the plastic one.
Snarf: Where did Jaga go?
Lion-O: Now we must wait for Super7 to release a Spirit of Jaga figure...
Snarf: They haven't even released me!!
Lion-O: Also, you owe me an apology since this wasn't a Mumm-Ra trick...
Snarf: That's because Super7 still hasn't released Mumm-Ra yet...
