OK, we’re pretty much agreed that a Trial against Lynx-O would involve Lion-O having to rely on his other senses. It’s fairly self-explanatory.
What people are skirting round for Bengali would be something akin to the original Star Trek episode “Arena”, where they have to make something to survive using only the elements in their surroundings. Possibly a weapon, but not necessarily here.
Pumyra, it’s been said that she’s a sort of medic of the group, so some sort of “Trial of Healing” perhaps?
An ominous scene of Panthro at the Berbil village pulling out his nunchucks and telling Berbil Bill not to worry, Lion-O and Pumyra will be along in a while to fix you up.
It was explained as being the GHOST of Hammerhand that Mumm-Ra summoned. Maybe he was somehow able to morph the clone Panthro’s body back to his own form afterwards . . .
Ummm that’s exactly what he did. Don’t you remember? When he comes back to Mumm-Ra’s pyramid and flips out at him and breaks the clone device the clone body flashes and turns into hammerhand’s body and then vanishes, leaving a freaked out mumm-ra and a broken clone machine. Yes, I do pay attention to these things. XD
I took it as he morphed the body into hammerhand through sheer force of will. Then he teleported to where all the berserks were and scared them all. XD
Well, his crew in Thundercats Ho! were completely different. In his original appearance, Hammerhand had a normal human-looking crew. When the Berserkers appeared in season 2, they consisted of Hammerhand, Cruncher, Ram-Bam and Top-Spinner, all clearly designed with toys in mind!
A scene I’d like to revise in “The Terror of Hammerhand” from season one would be Lion-O using the Sword of Omens’ sight beyond sight near the Unicorn Keepers. He doesn’t hold it to his face as usual, but he holds it in front of the keepers. I’d have the sword slightly extend and the Eye of Thundera glow blue instead of red to give the keepers an in-depth view of Lion-O saving one of their unicorns from that tree monster. The sword did extend slightly in a few episodes.
I think that episode would have been a good chance to introduce the “not able to swim unless invisible” thing. If you remember, Tygra was absent from it with no explanation (ok, he might have been away with the kittens doing I don’t know what, since there was no Feliner yet to take them in space missions), so something like this would have been nice:
The TCs see the Eye up on the sky; Pantrho turns to Tygra and says something like “It seems to be coming from some point in the sea, you better stay here and be alert”, to which Tygra agrees due to his “weakness” (although not being able to swim wouldn’t have been a problem since they stayed in the ThunderTank, but they didn’t know it’d be that way and better safe than sorry, right?). They might even address it or not, but it’d have been a good link to SJ.
