Thundercats? Girly? He-Man? No appeal? Blasphemy! Hehe, Thundercats kicked ass , as did Hong Kong Phooey. Damn, they really don't make kid's tv like they used to...... Teletubbies? Whassat all about? (Ok, that's preschool, and I have to admit that Arthur kicks ass (hey, I'm just a big kid at heart ) and Sabrina, while not *really* being a kiddie show is helluva good, although the Salem puppet is about as poor as you could get without using a sheet of cardboard with the text "black cat" written on it )
Interesting He-Man Fact My Boss Told Me Earlier: Mattel starts a production of action figures all based on the Conan the Barbarian film. Not even being released at the time the figures don't turn out much like Conan and Co at all. They make the He-Man cartoon to sell the figures. Now that may not be deadly accurate, but I reckon it's about right. Anyone know any more on that?
I don't know of that exactly, although it sounds right, somehow.... I know that the cartoons stemmed from action figures, so I suppose that extension makes sense (it ain't the least believeable thing I've heard today, put it that way )
Blasphemy!!!!! I still watch Thundercats every weekday EDIT : LOL! Dr. Nick I hadn't read your's when I posted this...just goes to show how horrible that statement was
What happened was.... The film (Conan) got pitched and sounded like a bit of a kids deal (well think about it, it would really) and Mattel got in on the action figure deal. Then the film gets made, Mattel sees it and goes 'HOLY CRAP! We cant sell kids toys off the back of this!' So not to waste there huge invetsment, they make a few tweaks to the lineup, start their own series, and Bobs your uncle out comes He-Man.
Bradford, the first is Centurions (easy ) but the second I always forget the name of. Always. Although I have an action figure somewhere of the Snake Hologram'd guy. That show used to scare me for some reason MASK was great, my mate has most of the toys
omg i remember that top one .... got any more pics ... i am sure i had some figures of that The second one rings a bell but I can't quite recall what it was
visionaries!!!! magical power we fight, visionaries!!!!!!! that one roxorz my boxorz!!! and your forgetting ghost busters, swampthing, attack of the killer tomatoes, toxic crusaders, captain planet (ok, so that was a bit pants)! and in no way was thundercats a girliey cartoon! sword of omens, give me sight beyond sight! ok, name this cartoon: "hes the greatest, hes fantastic, whenever there is danger hell be there."
Yeah baby Dangermouse baaaaaaaaaaaby Damn, that was soooo cool. Penfold was THE GUY Anyone remember Captain Planet? "Captain Planet/ He's a hero/ Gonna take pollution down to zero" Claaaaaseeeeek
