If there was a time machine only I had access to return to my childhood yrs when such cartoons, toys and life experiences wow I would whole heartedly love it.
December 1985 was a memorable Christmas for my brother and me. Thunder cats was the theme that year and we got 80% of those figures including vehicles.Even the female characters. The attention to design and detail was a fresh change from He-man toys. Every character was crafted perfectly. Blast from memory lane!! Thank you Michael for an amazing video!
As late as 1990 you could still buy Thundercats action figures in stores in original packaging at original prices. They are very hard to come by these days in original packaging and are very expensive if you find any
This was so good had to watch twice! Excellent work on the editing with Toon clips N the Tcats commercial break inserts during youtube ads was coolest most unique edit ever made. hahaha hahaha bad ass!
Love your history of videos. They are so well done. From showing the classic toys, the research you do, your narration voice, your humor, the video clips you include, the little crossovers here and there, just quality work!
I just found this channel was searching for bar arcades and saw your video of a bar arcade called pin up arcade bar. Really enjoyed that video . Gave me memories playing at Fun Land Arcade in the early 90s on Yonge Street in Toronto.
21:43 Boy, The tongueasourous. That boxart too. What anime was the guy who drew this watching?! Although, glad it happened to that piece of human filth.
Nice review! These were forbidden fruit as a kid, my Mom’s “nothing demonic” stance on toys extended to Thundercats via Mumra. These were extraordinary looking toy back in the 80s and hold up today. I’m impressed that the eyes still light up. Galoob: “G” is for “Quality”
Man, I am with you on the Mandora thing. One of the best characters (AND vehicles) on the show, and should have had a toy. I always wanted Chilla from the Lunataks, too. There were some badass women on Thundercats! I'm hoping Super 7 will right these wrongs, after all these years.
I so wish we got skytomb and all the lunatacks and how about the rat star? Or that robotic hachiemon? It seems the launatacks always get left out of the fun
Yeah Mandora was awesome, she was kinda like a female mix of a kid friendly version of Judge Dredd & a full human version of RoboCop. And yes, I know Judge Dredd's design was the inspiration for RoboCop's design, mostly the helmet. She should definitely have gotten her own toy too & her bike as a vehicle accessory as well! I could definitely see Mandora in her own spinoff, but make it more gritty like a story you would see in the sci-fi/fantasy magazine Heavy Metal.
Did the bad guys always unite against the Thundercats or were there some 3 way battles in some episodes where two different bad guys fought each other and the cats?
How is thunder cats related to masters of the universe or are they I always see stuff with the two together or is it just collecter that enjoys both I'm confused I always liked the but was to busy buying hemans lol
How did you type that?
@@ryanangelastro504 It's one of the custom emojis for channel members.
Hooooooooooooo!!!
These figures were almost art. Beautifully done
Editing in this video is top notch! Had me cracking up
Okay, let's add Mandora to the list of badass females of the 80's who didn't get a toy, e.g J. B McBride, Arcee and Crystal Kane just to name a few.
Haha, I loved seeing Safari Joe get his comeuppance.
That's why your toy retrospectives are the best.
The overall design of this toyline was pretty unique. The vehicles and action features made these villains stand out from the rest.
If there was a time machine only I had access to return to my childhood yrs when such cartoons, toys and life experiences wow I would whole heartedly love it.
Sucks that Mandora didn't get a figure.She was one cool space cop. Sucks that the Lunatacks were screwed too.
Let's hope Super 7 gets around to making them someday.
I remember distinctly several Luna Lasher being on the clearance shelf at the Zellers at Cloverdale Mall in Etobicoke well into the 90s
All excellent

Thanks Jason. Glad you enjoyed it.

Great video, the villians look so good, well designed characters. I really enjoyed watching this video. You're so awesome and you rock Michael.
I can't believe I just found the first video and today you upload the villains! Perfect timing!
That's my favourite cartoon my generation the thundercats love the animated series from 85,to 88, the era a classic cartoon retro.
Awesome video, Michael! I had no idea there was such a variety of Thundercats characters. That post-apocalyptic Third Earth was a rich place!
Great video Michael. The villains had a great lineup in this series 👍
The mail in mum ra was my first and last experience with mail in proofs of purchase. I’m still happy about it 35 + years later

I Love Mumra....
"Give me the might.
The right, the poowwwa.
Of MUuummuuuhhuhhrarraaaaaaa!!!!!!!!"
Borrowing Mumra's fortress to transform Prince Adam and Hotrod is pure gold, man! Only us 80's kids are that meta with toy lines we grew up with. 😂
Great video. Brings back good memories
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
"Safari Joe does it again!"
I used to have my he-man figures fight with my thundercats and villians. Nice review and nice collection
8pm here in Perth. Cup of tea. In front of the heater. Good timing Michael!
Wow this is bringing back memories of my childhood
First time seeing this video and loved it all !!!
Amazing collection 🥰🥰
Thanks!
Driller on card is currently going for $3800 on Ebay.
Awesome! Thank you for the fun video! Have a great weekend! Bahhhh! 😊🐐🤣
21:43 Boy, The tongueasourous. That boxart too. What anime was the guy who drew this watching?! Although, glad it happened to that piece of human filth.
Even as a kid I thought the Mumm-ra figure looked like Mike Tyson.
Love these episodes, another great one!
The fist pounder I had that when I was a kid and if I would had known what I know how I would still had that
Great Video!
I totally missed this video awesome stuff.
Superb vid once again Sir✊ Remember the episode "Jakalman's Rebellion " when he enlisted Molemaster & Driller? Pure Classic~ Much Obliged
Woao I had forgotten bout them. Thank u.
Excellent video!!!
Great video my friend. I loved how chunky the toy of SSlithe was. He was the real chunky monkey not Monkian!!! Love to you and Luana.
lol did the mutants get "future endeavored" as well?
Nice review! These were forbidden fruit as a kid, my Mom’s “nothing demonic” stance on toys extended to Thundercats via Mumra. These were extraordinary looking toy back in the 80s and hold up today. I’m impressed that the eyes still light up. Galoob: “G” is for “Quality”
Haha, and "Fun!"
Agree with you about Mandora. Why no figure of Willa (or Nayda) either? So many appearances
Really great! I need to watch the entire series now! 😃😃😃
😀😀😀
enjoying these "Hitory of's" as usual!
I subscribed because of the Dusty Rhodes reference. Jim Cornette is taking preorders for the first and only Midnight Express action figure boxed set.
Slithe was one of the few toys to survive my childhood, until my own kids broke him. Only Hun-Gurrr is left now.
Stinger was from the UK Thundercats comic.

Damn this guys channel is memory lane.
Love the Berzerkers
please do more the History video
Working on it. They take a long time.
@@MichaelMercy ok cool man :)
Great Video!!!!
Those toys are the cat’s a””. Quotes in case the kids are watching!
I so wish we got skytomb and all the lunatacks and how about the rat star? Or that robotic hachiemon? It seems the launatacks always get left out of the fun
Great use of clips 😂😂😂
Mandora’s voice. I think she was on MASK. Code name …..
Yeah Mandora was awesome, she was kinda like a female mix of a kid friendly version of Judge Dredd & a full human version of RoboCop.
And yes, I know Judge Dredd's design was the inspiration for RoboCop's design, mostly the helmet.

Brilliant!!

I had Grun and Mummra (mummy version) .... never had any other Thundercats
There's a 100% COMPLETE Mamutt on Ebay for 230$ plus 10$ shipping. Sounds good to me.
Where do you find all these retro toys. I had a lot of them but lacked the foresight to keep them
I don't anymore. These were all bought 10 years ago before vintage toys got expensive. They used to be old junk nobody wanted anymore.
Dammit .....i miss my childhood
would love to see your take on maxx steele, the robot line from the 80's if you have already done one plese feel free to direct me too it, thank you
I don't have any of those, sorry.
@@MichaelMercy that is completely fine sir, thank you so much for your response
Was there a Driller action figure as well?

Kojack Who Loves Ya Baby? Your Beautiful
Mumm Ra You Dare Taunt Mumm Ra?!!??!
Is it just me or does the Tongue-a-Saurus’ roar the same as rodan’s from the godzilla series?
@21:48
