I loved Dangermouse but Thundercats kicked its ass!! haha

I was a fan of Thundercats, Count Duckula and He-Man. However, Dungeons and Dragons is the only one there that I own every episode on DVD! lol. Did you know they never got home?

Not listed and not really a cartoon but my favourite was Charlie Chalk.

Cities Of Gold was always a must watch for me. Ah, the Broom Cupboard with Phil and Gordon.

Other favourites include:

- Topcat

- Captain Caveman

- Tom and Jerry

- Mighty Mouse

I used to love rainbow bright and the carebears

Jem and the holograms, Captain Caveman, squiddly diddly and myserious cities of gold were mine :)

Count Dukula for me...they're not retro or else I am retro :(

  • Author

Anyone (like me) who remembers actually watching these cartoons the first time around are RETRO!! lol

 

I love it - going to buy a few 80s cartoon boxsets soon.... thundercats and D&D for sure, maybe count duckula too... I don't remember cities of gold though...

I got my boyfriend count duckula for Christmas and my mam bought him danger mouse....the year before I got him heman :pp and the year before that button moon, it has sort of became a tradition that I buy him a retro kids series for Christmas :D

ooh also Inspector Gadget! (my oh calls me inspector gadget girl cause I have long arms and legs - every time I reach for something he says go-go-gadget arms)

LMAO - brilliant :lol:

 

I loved inspector gadget as well; so many great 80s cartoons hehe

Does anybody remember Biker Mice From Mars? They did an awful remake of it a few years back, when I was a kid in the '90s, I used to have some of the toys with motorbikes and stuff, it was amazing. I know it's not as retro, but it's still pretty damn good, and old.

 

I've never watched Thundercats.

WHAT!?!

 

You must have!!! eye of thundera (I think it was called) give me sight beyond sight!

I know of Thundercats, but never had the pleasure of watching it. Personally, I'm more of an animé fan, so I prefer the Studio Ghibli films, Fullmetal Alchemist, Pokémon etc.

 

I might download Bleach to watch actually.

Thundercats was a bit before Biker Mice from Mars. But everybody knows Biker Mice from Mars was just a knock off of Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles (turtles in a half shell, turtle power). God this thread has gotten me so happy lol.

 

I do remember having some cool biker mice toys though. They had awesome motorcycle helmets shaped like their silly mouse heads!

  • Author

Yeah Thundercats was quite an early one - Mice from Mars was 90s I think! And it was such a rip off from the Turtles. I remember getting the four turtle action figures for my birthday one year... I was so happy I nearly wet myself!! :lol:

 

I used to really like Chorton & the Wheelies too :)

Oh yeah.... I forgot about that one :D

 

I used to love watching button moon, pigeon street too when I was a pre-schooler.

Button moon was so cool - as was Rainbow!! loved that show!!

 

And of course there was the awesome...PLAYBUS!!! We are at the Y-Bird stop!!! haha

Not just Woody Woodpecker is the best cartoon ever

 

The website kicks ass!!!

http://www.woodywoodpecker.com/

 

Woody Woodpecker, was good but it wont be remembered for ever unlike Thunder Cats or Captin Cave man etc they have become legends in the retro cartoon world.

Droopy

 

I voted other because droopy is my favorite retro cartoon character.

Woody Woodpecker is so funny, and that website is awesome!

Where the **** is Centurions?! Jayce and the wheel warriors?? MASK??? But I voted Thundercats! See the thunder, hear the roar!

 

Ahhhh... good memories! :lol:

Voted D&D but wanted to vote Dangermouse. Thundercats was absolute ****e!

The BEST cartoon isn't on the list and it's Battle of the Planets - Voltar, the robot thing that twirped and cheaped and the G-Force crew!

 

Oh, and it's "Chortle and the Wheelies" and I loved it! My favourite was the witch that popped-up unexpectedly and muttered in Welsh!

 

MOST DISTURBING CARTOON CONCEPT: Jamie and his Magic Torch - a young teenage boy goes to bed, gets out his 'magic torch', plays with it under the covers and is transported off into a fantasy world!!!!! :o

 

And now I just remembered Mr. Ben which was a close contender with Battle of the Planets!

^ I've never heard of any of them!? But then again, I'm an 80's child so Thundercats was all the rage! Maybe you just didn't 'get' it? :pp

 

And I've got another one... Cities of Gold! Warning, watching the clip WILL make you emotional!

I quite often played sick to be able to stay off school and watch Mr. Ben. I miss those days, my mum believed me until I was about 8 then she wized up a bit :pp. I remember sitting with her doing the ironing and me watching Trisha/Call my Bluff/Countdown/Neighbours.

Roobard and Custard was brilliant. Always wondered why the birds looked so weird 'til you realised they had teeth in their beaks when they laughed!

Transformers was king back in the day, Optimus Prime was the daddy.

 

was pretty pimp as well :D
