Hopefully, it'll be like the 2003 (?) Masters of the Universe show.

Thunder, thunder THUNDER!

I'm a happy guy. Now we just need some awesome action figures instead of those 6 inch statues

I loved ThunderCats back in the day. Not so keen on the recent revival attempts (DC Comics & endless rumors of a movie or possible new series).

2002... since you passive-aggressively asked. But, yes, that would kick ass.

Short-lived with a fanbase so cranky about it not reflecting what they wanted they began telling better stories with the short-lived MOTU comic push filled with Adam/Teela 'shipping and a storyline borrowed from the unmade second season of The New Adventures of He-Man? (evil Man-At-Arms)

Kidding, kidding, it was a brillant series, and it led to an all too brief MOTU renascense in the UK...Mattel REALLY dropped the ball on that series. I honestly think the second biggest marketing blip next to MOTU was Hasbro's ****** handling of M.A.S.K's bastard cousin A.T.O.M

Surprised Cartoon Network is getting this. Every other 80's show being remade is on The Hub. *lol*

There was a time where I would have gone Why? but after the 4kids TMNT series, the JL and JLU and some of the newer Transformers series I am kinda looking forward to it.

I think a movie could work and if the new show is successful it will happen, studios are going to want to cash in on the 80s show into movies like they did with superheroes.

The new action figures are going to be made by Bandai, no official announcement but the guy who leaked the information on the new Thundercats /Young Justice/Green Lantern shows which all have been confirmed as real so the Bandai thing should be true. Apparently Mattel and Hasbro both passed on the toyline since its too different to what they currently sell. This also means the new toyline is likely to be 3 3/4s which is good news to me.
Liked thundercats as a kid when i watched re-runs in the 90s, glad to see a new show, hopefully its good.


It really is a renaissance in kids/action programing, everyone is wanting to cash in on that market at the moment. Nick/Disney/CN and the new kid in block "the hub" all have great line ups of shows.
