So, rather than try and basically do their full time job and another full time job, they decided to cut and run. Super 7 can do MOTU as Mattel owns that outright, so all they have to do is license it out. Thundercats is tricky. Licensing has never been easy for the brand, and you can't simply transfer the license from one company to another.

Thanks, I feel so ripped off, I just wasted like 200 bucks on the Thundercats stuff, and just bought Wily Kat and Wily Kit for no reason. I wonder what the E-bay prices will be now. Was really looking forward to Thundercats

Is Mattel contracting Super 7 to carry on the He-Man stuff, or is Super 7 Licensing from Mattel? Can Mattel sub-contract Thundercats, so long as the promised product meets licensing requirements?

To be fair, Thundercats' failure in cartoon form is thanks to Cartoon Network's assnine executives. If they actually aired the series without 3 months of reruns after every 4 episodes and they didn't change the time slot five times during its run, it would have done better.

Well Pixel Dan has a video and he interviewed the guy from Super 7 and he said they will try and do Wave 2. They just need the lisence, so hopefully it will come sooner rather than later, and where do we order from now

That wasn't just the Thundercats reboot that was everything longer than 11 mins and actually had a plot.

The treatment Beware the Batman got still kind of pisses me off. They didn't even try to give that show a chance to take off before they "put it on hiatus" after only a few weeks just to air the rest on Saturdays at 2 A.M. and then just canceling it because of poor ratings. Bull****!
