Dude!! I am so there. I've got just about the whole original set. Minus Lion-O for some reason. I'm not sure I ever got him. Panthro was the original P-I-M-P!! Im definately going to get that one.

I was looking at the T-Shirts at Target today and what do I see? A Thundecats T-Shirt! Needless to say I picked it up and am proudly wearing it right now. Could this be a sign of a upcoming onslaught of Thundercats merchandise? I hope so!

THUNDERCATS, THUNDERCATS, THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

If this does get off the ground, what would your preffered scale be? Mine would be around 5-6, compatible with the 80's figures. Sculpted by the Four Horsemen. That's be sweet. Hopefully the line won't be saturated with endless variations of Lion-O and Mumm-Ra and bomb like MOTU.

More TCats news at Ain't It Cool:

Quote
WB animation is remaking the Thundercats as an animated TV series.
The animation style is whimsical, Americanized-anime, along the lines of Teen Titans.
The setting is modern-day Earth, in a major city (possibly LA)
The Thundercats are all teenagers.
Their leader is Snarf (!) who is now a mystic with a "third" eye.
Each of the Thundercats has a weapon with an "Eye of Thunderra" and transformative powers (not just Lion-O)
When they aren't fighting evil, the Thundercats play together as a rock band. That's not a typo, or a joke. They are rockin' cats in their present form.
Mum-Ra now has wings.
And I bet he laughs a bit more than he used to =P
Developing...


Thundercats as a rock band?? Anime-ish animation?? Thundercats in LA?? WTF??

I'll probably get some of the inevitable figures just out of my loyalty to Lion-O, but I'll have to see if the new cartoon will be any good.

At least I'll still have my TCats DVD sets to watch I suppose...

Wow, that sounds pretty terrible.

I could handle pretty much everything else, but the rock band thing is just too strange.

Agreed.  That's the part of the rumor mix that really had me saying "what?".  The rock band thing is just a little too out there, not to mention some of the other aspects.  I really hope that this isn't true.  I miss the days when I was first in college, and Cartoon Network used to replay the old Thundercats cartoon sometimes - I believe in their "Toonami" lineup or something.  The DVDs are just too pricey, but it would be fun to see some of those episodes again.

Lion-O looks, well, odd...



Don't quite know what to make of it. At least it retains some of the original design, I suppose...

Sounds like the Thundercats could be making a comeback.  A new animated series has been announced (2011), could a toy line be far behind?
