When children grow up, they all need hero's and something to look forward to. When I was a young lad, I would look forward to watching the Thundercats on TV everyday after school. The Thundercats were and still are my favorite cartoon of all time. They could very well be my favorite TV show period. The show was the greatest thing going. It had action, adventure, twists, turns, and always had my attention. Within the past few years I have been trying to bring them back in my life, and the lives of my friends. I have been rebuilding my collection of the figures, movies, comic books, posters, clothes, etc. My collection is nearly complete. I have only a few more things to obtain.

The show was based on a group of individuals, who obviously call themselves The Thundercats. They come from a planet called "Thundera." Through the forces of evil their planet is destroyed, and the Thundercats are forced to leave their home planet in search of a new one. They find a liviable planet called "Third Earth." Upon their arrival at the planet they encounter many evils which may or may not be detailed for you later. Shall I begin with giving you a short description of the main Cats? Yes, I think I should. Well here we go! There are 6 main "Good-Guys" in the show.

They are as follows:

Wiley Cat & Wiley Kit: These two are the mischevious of the Thundercats. Pretty much all they do is get in the way and cause problems for the Thudnercats. They ride around on these things called hover-boards and search for danger. They try so hard to be part of the group, but they always seem to get caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.
