First Official Promo Image for the New THUNDERCATS Animated Series

THUNDER....THUNNDER....THUNDERCATS HO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thundercats is set to premiere this year and here is the first image of what you can expect the animated series to look like!


According to the offical press realease from Warner Brothers Animation:

The new “ThunderCats” will appeal to viewers who have loved the characters all their lives as well as young newcomers to the franchise. A sweeping tale combining swords and science and boasting ferocious battles with the highest of stakes, the grand origin story of Prince Lion-O’s ascension to the throne – and of those who would thwart his destiny at any cost – takes on epic dimensions in this sharp new telling. As the forces of good and evil battle each other in the quest for the fabled Stones of Power, Lion-O and his champions learn valuable lessons of loyalty, honor and mortality in every episode.

I usually don't like it when they "reboot" cartoons from my childhood, but from what I have seen from other reports on the internet, this new incarnation will stay true to the original story and if they do that, I will definitely give it a watch. Also, I am interested to see how this turns out and also to see if they have eliminated and/or added any characters to the show. With that being said, they better have not gotten rid of Snarf!!!!
