SWAT Kats: Revolution

Kickstarter campaign from the creators to get the show up and running again

Cool, Just posted that on twitter, I hope they get funded. :)

How on earth do they expect to get funding for a cartoon series? It says right there they need $200,000 just to produce a single 22 minute episode. Insane.

Let's hope it gets funded. Maybe it won't be "to violent" this time, lol.

hype

$200, 000 for an episode is not that bad, If I remember correctly W.i.t.c.h cost at least $600, 000 an episode.

I loved this cartoon as a kid... never could find any of the action figures, though. :tsad:

Razor and T-Bone were badasses.

This series should have been revived by CN years ago, but I doubt a kickstarter will save it.

Throwing money at this. I want some of those production pieces!!

Well if the rumors are true we can always blame Ted Turner that series was canceled after like 2 seasons. I would love for this series to return.

So first we had Sega going on Kickstarter and now we have Times Warner on KS? A little unprofessional that they have a low quality SK intro video with the boomerang logo on it...they couldn't even be assed to get clean footage? ugh. Don't get me wrong I'll totally watch this but this rubs me the wrong way.

Funnily enough I was thinking about Swat Katz a few days ago, I gave up on a revival years ago, the time was right a few years ago but I'm not sure anymore. This Kickstarter doesn't really offer anything except stuff for hardcore fans. I mean backers can't even see let alone own the episodes they helped fund? Talk about B.S.

It's clear that this was made to gauge interest in the series and be able to get funded for a full season. Kind of a weird way to gauge interest since the people funding it won't be the target audience the network wants..It's already halfway to get "funded" for the series bible..I do think we'll get to the 5 episode mini-series stretch goal just for the fact that this appeals so much to the furry community, I doubt many other shows would be able to get funded like this though.

I loved this show too. Hope it comes back.

Awesome show but I dont see this happening at all and even if it does I got a feeling it wont be in the way fans are going to want it to be. I'll support it but I'm not getting my hopes up.

1st day put it at 30k. Unless it picks up steam with some online news sites, I dunno if they're going to hit any of those stretch goals.

Loved this show since i was 12 when it came out on TBS and a revival would be badass.

I'm sure T-Bone and Razor would look more cooler than before and Callie Briggs would be more hubba hubba than ever.

I can picture Brad Douriff as the voice of T-Bone.

I was 20 years old when the show debut back in 1993. :)

Fun fact: Barry Gordon, Donatello's VA from the original cartoon, voiced Razor in this show. He used the same exact voice as Donatello too.

Then they should totally get most of the original voice actors who are still alive.

Lol yeah this is so funny I watched a couple of episodes last night for nostalgia sake and I heard Donatello and looked at my tv and put two and two together :lol:

They reached there goal! it's now at $67,355

They reached it yesterday I believe. It done well so far, but I am afraid its going to lose steam. It would be great if Netflix would pick this up :D

I loved this show as a kid. Swat Kats was one of the many shows I'd talk about to the kids at school...only for them to have no idea what I was talking about. Over twenty years later and I still have yet to meet someone in person who has heard of this show.

The Kickstarter ended with $141,500. It was even able to hit one of it's stretch goals of "2 minute animation teaser".

Not bad for a kid's show no one remembers.

Swat Kats used to rerun on Cartoon Network all the time in the early to mid 90's, so many people saw it back then.

I'm surprised this didn't get more money, I never thought the nostalgia crowd was going to be able to pull it off with such lackluster rewards but I was sure the furry community was gonna have a field day with this one.

Damn right, i happen to be a furry myself since i laid eyes on Cleo from Heathcliff and Cheetara on thundercats at age 4 and also a brony as well since 2011, i'm in a lot of fandoms.

Don't forget our beloved TMNT shows is popular with the furry fandom too.

Even non-furries would find Callie Briggs, Ann gora or Felina Feral hot.

Yes i always noticed Razor was voiced by Donetello.
