Call me crazy, but I'm a little worried about the art direction of these guys. The 80's Thundercats were just cooler looking. Well, that's my opinion anyway. I'm sure it's way too early to say anything negative about the show seeing as it isn't out yet. I mean, I had doubts about the new Transformers Prime cartoon and (again this is just my opinion) the cartoon totally rocks. The same goes for the Masters of the Universe cartoon that came out a few years back. I really liked that one too. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
