Game: ThunderCat Hangman

thezaxfactor · January 27, 2021, 7:25pm

Yes! I remember putting the little chairs onto turntables so that the characters could swivel around in back.

All my LEGOs are packed away at my parents’, including a Tank that I know I never took apart. I wonder if any of the characters I assembled are still intact—it would be fun to see how my childhood brain mapped cartoon to LEGO, given all the constraints of LEGO character designs. I definitely remember giving Lion-O brown hair for lack of red, haha.

Somewhere I have a screenshot of a Feliner I built and then replicated in the LEGO Creator software in the late 90s. Let me see if I can find it…

ETA: Found it! Apparently I photoshopped Panthro, Lynxo and Snarf into it, and added a little clipart ThunderTank, hahaha. So weird.

That’s cool! I never took pictures of my Thundercats Lego creations, but I did also make and photograph my own Lego versions of the vehicles and characters from another of my favourite cartoons of the 80s, Visionaries: Knights Of The Magical Light (or just Visionaries for short, we covered it in ROCKS a few years ago). Check them out - and if you look up image of the show itself, you can compare!

Let’s do a lightening round!

Be quick!

Any E’s?

Btw - Blackwing, did you name yourself on here after the character from King Arthur And The Knights Of Justice?

(nah, I never actually watched that series. I was more thinking Nightwing, from Batman.)

I think we can definitely say you got that right Zax! Not sure if Blackwing is on hiatus again, do we need to wait for his confirmation or do we proceed with you setting the next puzzle?

thezaxfactor · January 30, 2021, 1:56pm

I was waiting for that confirmation, yeah, but I suppose you’re right… Here’s a new puzzle, and may Blackwing forgive me!

What about the N’s?

Blackwing · January 31, 2021, 2:03am

I’m so sorry. It went like this.

blackwing sees his hangman has been solved
“Yay, he got it!”
Closes laptop and waits for next hangman puzzle from zaxfactor

Either way, Confirmed congrats Zax!

thezaxfactor · January 31, 2021, 2:46am

Ha! No worries. Somewhere along the line this game developed its own weird etiquette. Can you believe this thread is almost ten years old?!

Anyway, two Ns!

Your place is there, not here in the astral world.

thezaxfactor · January 31, 2021, 10:17pm

Yes! Jaga to Lion-O after he showed up with no escape plan.

You’re up, Liam!
