I gave watching the new Thundercats a go when it first started. It wasn't really my cup of tea so I gave up on it after about five episodes, but from what I saw its a really well produced show. It was cleverly rebooted, and was actually fresh rather than simply being a retread of the original.

I'm not sure how well the toy sales actually are over in the UK, but its certainly not given much shelf space. Usually I just see it shoved into the corner (along with the Power Rangers Samurai stuff funnily enough) where all the toys nobody buys go. I guess it can't really keep up with the Transformers and Doctor Who stuff it usually shares a shelf with. When the show started on Cartoon Network over here my local Entertainer tried to push it, but it died down pretty quickly.

I met Matt Mercer at an anime convention last year and he seemed so psyched about how fans were loving it and that he'd had the opportunity to play Tygra, so I'm saddened to hear about the state of the show for his sake as well as the fans
