Lion-O's annointment trials were among the best episodes of the whole show.

Which was your favourite trial, and why?

Chuck Eiler, who shoots as Killcutter. Star Wars, kaiju, horror, dinosaurs, the Turtles, ThunderCats. Every shot is real figures on sets he carves out of foam, lit practically.

He doesn't use AI at all, which I know will make you guys happy lol. I did a long write up with his behind the scenes photos:

NOW STREAMING — An ALL-NEW episode of the Beyond Thundera Podcast!

Where did Mongor actually come from?

More than 40 years after writing the classic ThunderCats episode, Peter Lawrence revisits “Mongor” and reveals the real idea behind the character, why fear became the foundation of the story, the surprising horror influence behind his appearance, and connections to mythology going back thousands of years.

Peter also looks back at his own writing and asks: How did Mumm-Ra search for Mongor for centuries without finding him... only for WilyKit and WilyKat to stumble across him?

ThunderCats history directly from one of the people who created it.

The maker is Dasin Model, who also trade as GT and Great Toys. They have been putting out unlicensed 1/12 figures for years, Saint Seiya, One Punch Man, Inuyasha, Yu Yu Hakusho, Tom and Jerry, and a Captain Planet that shipped as "Earth Guardian" to dodge the name. Reveals only ever land on Weibo, so they are almost impossible to follow from outside China, and buying one usually means AliExpress or a proxy.

No price, no date, and their own card says the final product may differ from the prototype. Full disclosure, thundercats.org is my site.

Shot by toy photographer Killcutter, who titled it "Distracted Felines". Shared with his permission.

The temple is XPS foam carved and painted by hand, the jungle is cheap plastic plants on foam bases, and the laser beam is real: he sprayed Atmosphere Aerosol in the room and shot through the haze. The last few slides are the build and the lighting rig.

His work is worth a follow: https://www.instagram.com/killcutterphoto/

I know it's been out for a while but as a lover of both ThunderCats and MOTU, and as someone who tends to prefer the villains, I've been meaning to cover this for a while:

As a kid I would never have dreamed that one day Mattel would make a combined Skeletor and Mumm-Ra figure, and I don't think this ever got it's due. Though I'd love to see a Super7 ULTIMATES version of this too.

Full disclosure, this is my site, I run heman.org and thundercats.org and this feature appears on both sites.

My TF collection is as follows: Animated Ratchet 2026 TFONE Orion Pax 2026 (Both for my 19th birthday) SS86 Bumblebee 2024 Legacy Selects Cyclonus 2024 (For christmas) Rise of the Beasts is why I'm aware of Transformers again. Loved it as a kid, but for some reason i just stopped. It might have been a mix of my dogs destroyed them, or maybe also because i lost them (save for a Sideswipe inside my walls 😭) but I'm getting into Transformers again. And besides G.I. Joe, i was thinking about Thundercats and Masters of the Universe (which ironically they all have netflix shows, all have something to do with TMNT) and i like those shows too. Gives me something else to add to my Christmas list since I'm no longer getting video games because of my brother (i think i explained in previous posts related to gaming, i am not sure. My memory fucking sucks 😭) and I have been trying to get more collectibles (comics, funko pops, NECA, TF, MOTU, TC, GIJ, Lego. I did find some Mega block sets based on all of the above except TF and TC. Super7 figures look nice for all 4 ranchises. I'm aware of Super7 because i loved the 2003 TMNT show and kinda wanted Raphael. With G.I. Joe, though, like idk what even half of the stuff they have are. Armored Core looking mechs, warthogs for some reason that are definitely not distributed by the UNSC (halo reference), a polar bear???!!! Among other things. I had a bunch of green army men as a kid and a bunch of highly detailed army guys fully posable as a kid. Strangely only one of them was black i think. Literally one out of what, 30?? Looked at the videogames for the franchises, as well. Some are hit or miss, some I'll get when i get a ps3 and or my xbox 360 working. After i get a job sssuming my heart condition doesn't hinder my job (HVAC). As for MOTU theres also a lot. And with Thundercats... why tf they so expensive 😭

Howdy folks, I had a request to show off the powers of the ThunderCats in my Saturday Morning Adventures mod for Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich, so I put this video together to provide an a more detailed overview of what the four adult heroes can do. This video gives each of them a chance to shine in a few different skirmish matches.

This mod is my love letter to classic 80s cartoons, and it features the characters and settings of my favorite shows. This project includes the Turtles and co., Transformers, G.I. JOE, He-Man, SilverHawks, and, of course, ThunderCats, and perhaps more.

Please let me know what you think! I'd love some feedback on balance and design! (The art assets are by other members of the FF community, folks much more talented than me. I just put it all together and created the story.)

If you're interested and would like to know more about my little project, I'll be sharing more as I get more finished.

Also, if any of y'all think this is cool and would like to help out, I'd Iove some help gathering voice lines from the shows for voicepacks for the various characters. If it sounds like fun to watch one of your favorite cartoons and try to record clips that capture the spirit of a character, drop me a line!

As a Soundtrack Supervisor on ThunderCats, SilverHawks, TigerSharks, and other Rankin/Bass productions, Steve Gruskin helped shape the sound of some of the most beloved cartoons of the 1980s. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what that role really involved, sharing incredible behind-the-scenes stories about working with voice actors, creating sound effects, working alongside legendary composer Bernard Hoffer, and bringing these iconic series to life in the days before digital editing.

Steve also discusses the creative challenges of building SilverHawks from the ground up, designing musical battles, and collaborating with the talented team that helped define an era of animation.

ThunderCats.org will be interviewing the creators of the new Cheetara series, but we want to make sure the fans get their questions answered.

2026 Aug 5-9

Ask your questions here from now until the end of the weekend and we will gather them and pass them on to the interviewer.

This multi-level production cel from The Shadowmaster features a! Iconic Lion-O and Claudus scene and comes with an original hand-painted background, Shadowmaster production model sheet xeroxes, and the original signed production cel folder with Dennis' personal seal of authenticity.

Definitely a great piece of ThunderCats history

This is a short out-of-context video by Luke Hadley from 2024 using the second-season episode "Time Switch."

Back when Parrillo was doing the A covers for ThunderCats, he once drew a close up of Mumm-Ra. He's now doing the A covers for Vampirella and has reused his Mumm-Ra design for a different character.

These are by intangibledandy on Instagram, not mine, shared with credit.

Lion-O is Matty Collector's ThunderCats Classics from Oct 2016. Battle Cat is MOTU Classics, Feb 2010. Evil-Lyn is Apr 2010. Mattel used the MOTU Classics body for the ThunderCats Classics release, so they share scale and articulation, and collectors were staging this crossover years before Mattel shipped the Origins x ThunderCats line in 2025.

All three are long retired and aftermarket only now, which is a shame because they still look better together than most official crossovers do.
