Good job WHV UK!!!
AWESOME!!! That’s gotta be one of the coolest things ever. I can just imagine going out for a drive in the evening and seeing the huge thundercats sign on a wall like that. It would just make my day!
Wow… that is such a great piece of marketing.. kudos to WHV UK ![]()
THAT is awesome!! (Hopes WB can learn something from this)
I don’t get it…what exactly is goin on in those pics, are they real?
Oh, what a great idea! I love it! And no, Bengali, nobody actually shone the Cat Signal on the walls of Parliament; it’s a marketing-ploy photo by UK DVD. But what if somebody really did do that? Hah, imagine the publicity it would get! Not to mention rattle a few members of the House of Lords and the House of Commons! ![]()
Well if not the Parliament, they could actually display the signal over the power station ![]()
And a very realistic one! Could of had me fooled >.<
It’s a power station? I wondered what that first building was. I thought those were four smoke stacks. ![]()

By the way…I believe this really DID happen…it’s not a mock photo. ![]()
On the site frontpage, Manny mentioned that it’s currently a defunct Battersea Power Station.
I did believe the same, but then wondered after catspat mentioned they probably couldn’t do so to the Parliament building. I hope we see some more photos, probably from different angles.
After some searching I found that many sites are stating the press release photos as facts, I hope they did really happen.

Now looks like WHV UK are doing more than just displaying the signal ![]()

Now that’s just 31 flavors of cool whether its real or not!!! I wish they’d done something like that over here!
The girls even looked great as Cheetara!
Here is the original source of those Cheetara photos.

WHV UK has confirmed with ThunderCats Lair that those are REAL photos.
This photo (below) was sent to us directly from WHV. If you notice on this particular photo, the stack pipes say “Season 2 Volume1 DVD Out Now.”
My correspondent within WHV UK told me they weren’t allowed to do it for very long, but that the photos are very much real. ![]()
Coolest.
Promo.
Ever.
:cheetaraveryhappy: :tygra:
Damnit! Why does WB America suck so much ass!?
These guys over at WHV UK have really done a great job promoting the Thundercats DVD’s. Kudos to them.
And the girls dressed up as Cheetara are great! (Wish they’d do some “personal” promoting of those DVD’s for me). ![]()
They should definitely have done something similar here in the U.S. It’s just cool to see that somebody actually comes up with good promotion tricks once in a while. Too bad we didn’t get to see these over here.
Then they really did shine the Cat Signal on the wall of the Parliament building? Wow, when these guys promote a product, they really promote it! :jaw:
Oh, and I just read the “ThunderCats on the Loose in Westminster” article. Hilarious! And the comments it gets are hysterical! It makes me so happy that Lion-O and Company have the fanbase that they do in England and elsewhere in Europe. The Cats deserve as widespead a fandom as they can get. :cheetaraveryhappy:
