Taylor Made Treats, a baking and treats blog that features some really nicely made treats, has a cool post worth checking out, especially for the Thundercats fans out there. On the latest blog post, they show off some beautifully done Thundercats Decorated Cookies. They feature Lion-O, Cheetara, Snarf, Panthro and the Thundercats Emblem.

Part one of the Thundercats.ws site updates have been completed. The forums have been slightly reorganized. Some of the dead forums have been removed and merged together. This will help streamline the site a bit, and allow you, the fans, to better focus on the areas you've already been visiting.
The next round of updates will likely hit after New York Toy Fair 2013. So stay tuned and enjoy!

It's been a while since we've updated the site. With the death of the Thundercats 2011 series and toy line, coupled with trickling news and the holidays, we've slipped on the news a bit. Thankfully, that isn't going to last much longer. Over the coming days and weeks you may notice some changes in both the look and structure of the site.
We'll be doing a bit of Winter clean-up and streamlining. We apologize for the lack of updates. With great companies like Mezco (they're bringing us a Mega Scale Cheetara figure) and Icon Heroes (those series 3 Thundercats Minimates look great) still pumping out great stuff, there's sure to be some killer stuff for us in 2013. So fret not, and we look forward to gettign back to the line we all love...Thundercats!

Thundercats is at a cross roads right now. The brand is barely holding on, the show may not return and the toys have seen sparse shelf space and extremely poor distribution. Non-toy merchandise has seen an extremely slow trickle, with very little in the way to excite fans and kids. So when I ask, "Should Thundercats Be Saved?", I solely mean this particular iteration of the classic franchise and not the brand as a whole.
Now, don't get me wrong here...Thundercats, as a brand, can be a very powerful name. Thundercats (as a brand) can and should be in the market. But only if handled correctly; With respect by all involved, a dedicated master toy license holder willing to keep the line fresh and in people's minds.
I'm going to take a look at 5 reasons why this current iteration absolutely should be saved and should continue on. But I'm also going to list 5 reasons why it might be best to cut their losses and start over. Read on to see what I've come up with.

News has been relatively slow, even with the return of the show. So let's have some fun. New forum member Wilycub has created a really cool Thundercats Crossword Puzzle and has shared it with the members of the forum. Perfect for printing out and killing some time on a long day.
