'WTF' moments in Thundercats eps.

Cartoons ThunderCats (1985)
101

“Sideswipe” is truly one o’ the sillier ThunderCats episodes.

102

Jaga told the TCs in “Exodus” that while they din’t have need for clothes in Thudnera, they might need them in their new home, and then gave them their clothes. But Jaga was actually wearing clothes, and hi did when young (as we could see both him and Grune wearing clothes in “Ghost Warrior”). Also, Claudus, Jagara, Lynx-O, Pumyra and Bengali, as well as the Royal Guards, all of them wore clothes in Thundera. And the refugees they found in season 4 too.

The belt and armour etc I thought gave Jaga more interesting looks and better looking for going into battle with his old enemy.

Suppose our heroes are all just a bunch of nudists?

Briefly you can see Panthro wearing underwear in Lion-O’s dream sequence from “ThunderCats, Ho!” Part 1.

106

But all the Thundercats have a line on their leg suggesting they are wearing something. Panthro, Cheetara, Kit, Kat and Lion-O.
Also the Royal Guards are wearing clothes.

107

Yes…briefly. Tee hee. :wink:

I was responding to Tygra_Rules who was pointing out that only the main Thundercats have been shown as very under-dressed in the pilot and that every other instance of Thunderians has shown that they normally wear clothing.

I agree. I was just saying that I find it odd they were drawn with the line to suggest underwear etc.
But yes all other Thundarians are shown with clothes.

There was that glowing, sparkling red fabric Jaga had that he gave to the other ThunderCats in “Exodus,” which materialized into the clothes they always wear. Where did that fabric come from exactly?

The same place Superman got the fabric shield thing he throws in Superman 2. :wink:

Now that’s a WTF moment. xD

Three other WTF? moments for me:
[ol]
[li]Sometimes TCs keep their weapons with them all the time, even while sleeping, while others they are kept in a special room (“The Problem with Thunderkittens”, “Mycrits”). That was a stupid idea IMO, having the weapons in a special room. Suppose there were a night attack, the TCs should have gone all their way from their bedrooms to that room to get their weapons. Also, they usually take them everywhere, but in some eps (“The Problem with Thunderkittens”), Panthro, Cheetara and Tygra left their weapons in Third Earth rather than taking them to their space trip. You can say they wouldn’t need them up there, but you never know. [/li]
[li]Cheetara having more than one suit in “Dimension Doom”. Also, the TCs sleeping with their clothes on (even boots) (“Garden of Delights”, “Dream Master”, etc.).[/li][li]Tygra noticing (and stating) he was turning visible again in “Fireballs from Castle Plun-Darr”. I mean, how did he know he was turning visible? Even when invisible, he should be able to see himself, right? It’s not like he turned invisible to himself as well. [/li][/ol]

All very good highlights.

I always thought Lynxo’s Brail Board was a real WTF. It just seems odd how it would even work.

I know what you’re saying, and to an extent I agree. My guess is, the Braille board worked as a tactile version of a monitor.

I always thought it was kinda funny in “The Mumm-Ra Berbil” when Lion-O looks in Cheetara’s closet and there’s just multiples of her leotard and boots in it.

Me, too. xD

It IS “The Mumm-Ra Berbil” where this happens.

That was the episode! I thought it was “Dimension Doom”, but you’re right.
