I couldn’t believe some of the topics they dealt with like when Doyle got hooked on “brain blasters” (basically drugs) and he started stealing to pay his dealer IIRC. That episode was nominated for an award I believe. I’ve read about a M.A.S.K live action movie as well but that’s yet to materialise (another quality DIC cartoon). I think Hasbro (who bought Kenner) re-registered the trademarks. There was even a Matt Trakker GI JOE figure a few years ago and there were rumours about his character appearing in one of the movies but it’s yet to happen. 3 months! Just 1 season of 13 episodes Quote

There was a Spider-Man cartoon produced and aired alongside it. Dan Gilvezan was a good Spidey, and Frank Welker as Iceman as well. Quote
Mr_Danger Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Reasons why Peppa Pig is great: 1. Richard Ridings 2. Brian Blessed. 3. "THE FUCKING GAZELLES!" 4. "Don't panic, anyone in WE'RE HAVING A RABBIT!" 5. It keeps the busiest near two year old in the world quiet for a bit and his four sisters as well. (Although the eldest being 13 her silence is probably more a by product of her 'moods') Quote

LCJ Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Early 80s Marvel cartoons were gold. Whether it was both Spidey Cartoons, D&D or the Incredible Hulk. Quote

I can't remember what happened in a single episode, yet it is where my love of Superhero's started. I had no idea that, Iceman were such low key comicbook characters because he was with Spider-Man. Nor did I know FireStar was created just for the cartoon. She was the original Harley Quinn in that regard Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted May 18, 2019 Paid Members Posted May 18, 2019 She was. How weird is it that Bill Murray complained that Peter Venkman sounded too much like Garfield in The Real Ghostbusters then ends up as the voice of Garfield in the "live action" movies. On a Thundercats tip, does anybody remember Silverhawks? I had a video of the first few episodes, it was a Rankin/Bass production. Similar concept, same voice cast. Not a bad show I think it might have been on Live & Kicking/Going Live at one point. There was also another one called Tiger Sharks. The first episode is on YouTube. It's pretty bad. The law of diminishing returns is very much at play here. Quote

Will give it a watch later. For those unaware WCO has prettymuch everything and is a superb resource for cartoons and anime. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted May 18, 2019 Paid Members Posted May 18, 2019 I thought Silverhawks was alright from what I saw of it. Sufficiently different from Thundercats, but still a little familiar. Tigersharks just felt straight up derivative. If anybody's interested I discovered a podcast called Saturday Mourning Cartoons last year while I was sick, which covers some of these shows. It's not a bad podcast. It's on Youtube as well. https://saturdaymourningcartoons.com/ Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted May 18, 2019 Paid Members Posted May 18, 2019 I used to have a Galaxy Rangers figure. I can't remember how I ended up in it's ownership. I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Captain Planet and its all-star cast yet. Quote
LCJ Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I think Captain Planet was Ted Turner’s idea as he was concerned about climate change and wanted the younger generation to be aware of it too. I remember Whoopi Goldberg being one of the voices of one of the characters. Can’t remember any of the other actors. Quote

But i didn’t see the cartoon until years later. Similar to Bravestar in which I remember their toys and the beautifully illustrated art on them, but don’t remember the cartoon being shown here until early 90’s. Planet managed to have an amazing cast of guest stars at the time it aired. And a Much better show then that shitty James Bond Jr which I think had the same people behind it. i mean look at that. He learned the game from his Uncle James, always saving the girl. What a shit show it all was. Edited May 18, 2019 by Hannibal Scorch Quote
LCJ Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Never saw James Bond Jr. I was about 13-14 when that was on and considered myself a bit too old for it. Never saw that intro until now. That’s a pretty poor theme song. Quote
