Forgive me if this has already been posted somewhere here - I checked around a bit, but I may have overlooked it.
At any rate, if not then I found this link contained some very interesting remarks.

Yea it was posted. The comments on Panthro seem to be the most interesting.
Indeed. Can you link me to the thread? Thanks 
Angie, it’s somewhere in this thread. Feel free to create a new thread about it. It’s getting difficult to go through this thread anyways. 
Ah ok. I did check the new series thread and went back several pages but not far enough lol! Sorry about that. I should have known it would have been posted here 
Wonderful stuff in the interview. The character redesigns look interesting. Lion-O looks so young, and with blue eyes yet! Does that mean that once he’s done aging, his eyes will be a different color? That’s what happens to kittens in real life, their eyes change from blue to green as they get older.
Tygra has a pistol; now that’s progress! I couldn’t tell if Cheetara still has her power-staff. Does anybody know?
Yea, it’s clearly visible here

So Third Earth WILL be in the new series.
What are u talking about!? Tygra + pistol + army clothing + grenades = G.I Joe NOT Tygra!! I know a lot of people think he was the ‘boring’ one, but for me the BoloWhip alone was EPIC! I appreciate if they make him more exciting, and can handle that, but under no circumstances do they need to ‘make progress’ with him through additional (un-true to the original) weaponry such as that!!!
I don’t get where this Tygra was boring idea comes from?
He was one of the most dynamic characters in the show and had his fair share of the action, being central to many of the episodes! and his Bolo Whip was one of the coolest weapons! Of anyone, Cheetara had the dullest weapon…a stick!
I’m wondering if Tygra is still going to have his powers of illusion - and maybe use them more in this series!
I don’t think he was boring at all. I don’t think any of main characters were boring which is part of what always made the show awesome.
I don’t think Tygra was boring, but I think he was underused, considering his awesome powers.
