NEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRD

Okay so I am just embarrassed that I only recognize the two in the foreground.

Either way, that's a pretty cool (potential) poster. Makes me want to have another go at the ones I recognize, and learn a thing or two about those I don't.

I don't even like them, but now I'm curious.

Either way, they both seen rather complimentary these days.

. I remember graciously accepting the kind words of my peers long before it was "cool" to be a geek/nerd.

But seriously, that's a neat picture. Makes me want to rewatch the original Thundercats and check out the new one, I hear it's not as bad as it looks. Never did see all the He-man cartoons, either. Was never a comic buff, so the cartoons were my only exposure. Still can't identify the other two. :?

From the left...
Sunsword- Thundarr the Barbarian
Sword of Power - He Man
Snake Eyes Sword - GI Joe
Sword of Omens - Thundercats
Link's Sword (maybe another name) - Zelda

And of course, if you know the correct names...please educate us, as I'm not completely sure on all these.

I've actually seen a few episodes of the new one and it really is actually quite nice. Only reason I haven't watched it all the way through is finding a decent source.

EDIT: Thorfinn ninja'd me on the identification; the proper name of Link's sword, though, is the Master Sword. Other than that, he got 'em all.

Storytellers and writers are all gods and goddesses, to a one. Musicians are their host, painters their scribes, and actors their saints--but all arts start with a story to tell.

I should have known the Master Sword. Never played any of the Zelda games, but that sword is everywhere. Completely missed Snake Eyes, back there behind everybody else, with the only reasonably sized sword in the lot...

I can't remember whether I every did know Thundarr, but it's very familiar...

Bound to be a proper source for the new TC, I might have a look around later.

Very cool! I would love to have functional replicas of those on my wall.

I thought the new Thundercats was good, but my brothers didn't like it. You may want to skip He-Man though. We watched the top 10 dvd and it was pretty bad - didn't stand the test of time I guess.

I worry not much from that era will. I've tried to "relive" several things from my childhood, only to determine...they're kinda dumb.

Good thing I'm on my third childhood. I think this one is the best so far.

Thundarr had two companions, Ariel the Princess and Ookla, kind of a Chewbacca. I loved it. Too bad the Sunsword is kind of a lightsaber...
