This is the final quiz in the “Look what I found in my parents’ basement!” series (past installments focused on WWF Superstars and baseball cards). My ThunderCats were a little too worn, so I turned to the fine folks at Thundercatslair.org to supply the action figure images. Can you supply their names?

Take the Quiz: Thundercats…Who?

  1. 70% – not bad, considering that Thundercats wasn’t even on my radar as a kid. Give me a similar quiz on He-Man or M.A.S.K, however, and I’d be disappointed with anything less than an ace. Good quiz!

  2. 7/10, which considering it has been 25 years since I have seen that show is not bad. I just remember the end of the theme song: “Thunder, Thunder, Thunder, Thunder CATS”. Or something to that effect, it has been a long time.
    Good quiz though.

  3. Thunder…thunder….Thunder Cats….HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    lol, I used to absolutely LOVE this show!! This and Denver the last Dinosaur were my favorites (along with Small Wonder, although it wasn’t a cartoon). I hate the 80s except for my cartoon shows :)

  6. 8/10 – I don’t remember #s 8 and 9.

    Word to Panthro – a true brother if I ever heard one!

  7. I recall being a 6 year old Amanda and feeling profoundly clever when I’d figured out that Panthro was Dr. Huxtable’s dad. I knew that cartoons were voiced by real people but that was the moment it really came together. I pictured the actor going from the Cosby set to a sound studio, just puttin in a day’s work.

  8. I remembered Tygra’s name without even having to read the choices, but since he and Cheetara, whose doll/action figure I had, were the only characters I had any memory of at all, I only got 5/10.

    Speaking, as Pink Coat was, of “Denver, the Last Dinosaur,” its theme song inexplicably pops into my head at times.
