I wonder if they're building to that and that's why they haven't had him say the words that many times. I wonder if he's gonna finally say it when he's truly earned his kingship, it's gonna make the cat symbol appear on all their gems, and we're gonna get the eye-glow power up?

Yeah, all it's done so far is tear apart and crash a ship the size of a small city, defeat several lizards at once in a single stroke, and burn the hell out of Mumm-Ra so badly he ran like a little girl. Pathetic!
It's a different show, different rules apply. If the sword even
can
return to Lion-O's hand and hasn't it isn't because the sword is weak, it's because Lion-O hasn't mastered that skill yet. None of the other cat's powers are granted by the sword either, the eye glow and "power up" is a function of their loyalty to Lion-O and so far only Cheetara has displayed that level of loyalty. The purpose of the Thundercats signal is to call the other cats to Lion-O's side when he needs them. If they're
right there
there's really no need for it (although he has used it with them right there before). In the old series it was over-used (pretty much every episode) and really served no purpose other than to pad out the show with stock footage and allow the other cats a token appearance in an otherwise Lion-O only episode (of which there were quite a few). By the time they even
got
to him he had most likely already beaten whatever he needed help with. Limiting the use of it is for the best, as it actually
means
something when he does do it.
