Spoilers for what? That Panthro is in the show? Sorry, but I don't consider that a spoiler in any way shape or form.

Lion O of savannah · 08-08-2011, 10:35 AM

I just hope that Panthro stays the 1 man army like he used to be. I was wondering what episode he was goin to make his debut. I look forward to this weeks episode even more now. Now if I could only score the new figures.

Can't wait till this friday for panthro to make his debut. This is going to be a great episode. I hope he is the one cat reckeing crew that we knew in the g1 cartoons.

Lord of the Thundercats · 08-08-2011, 11:12 AM

Can't wait! I had a theory about Panthro after being betrayed by Grune that he was found left for dead by the ro bear berbils who taught him technology and aided him in building the Thundertank. Maybe I was right?

This is a fan forum. Of course there are going to be 'spoilers' posted on the front page. Who cares? It doesn't take anything away from the episode I think.

LordLionO · 08-08-2011, 11:23 AM

Awesomeness!!

ThunderCat Tygra 2011 · 08-08-2011, 11:42 AM

PANTHRO, FINALY!!!!!!!!! He looks so badass and the Thundertanck is AWESOME!!!!!!!!! I know that he will be what we are waiting him to be

The creators have been working hard on Panthro to make him like we all remember him ;D
The pics rock!! I can believe that he will be in episode 4!! I though it will be 6 or 7.......WHO CARES::::PANTHRO IS FINALY HERE!!!!!

xhavoc86 · 08-08-2011, 12:04 PM

I will always favor the original character designs, but this isn't terrible either... can't wait for Panthro!

DESTRO · 08-08-2011, 12:12 PM

Now that's going to sell a few ThunderTanks! Very cool, very cool.

Panthro2005 · 08-08-2011, 12:59 PM

I honestly thought he was gonna first appear in "old friends" first but nice to see the wait will be shorter!

User897 · 08-08-2011, 02:17 PM

The "real Panthro?"

Wasn't he already shown to be a traitor, responsible for the king's death? So, I guess he's just gonna show up with the tank and say, "Hey, it wasn't me?" It's ironic how the creators of this series make Panthro out to be this awful character, while the classic version is the most loyal and patriotic. I guess they were trying to throw a curve ball.

You may want to watch the premiere again. That wasn't Panthro. That was Mumm-Ra in disguise. It wasn't even confusing, it was quite clear.

Cougra · 08-08-2011, 02:48 PM

Awesome clip! I managed to find a Thundertank at my local Kmart. My friend is helping me record all the episodes, too. ~__^

Shenlon · 08-08-2011, 02:48 PM

That was ...... AWESOME

Panthro is one bad cat.

Beej B · 08-08-2011, 02:56 PM

Sweet! So looking forward to this.

dolza_khyron · 08-08-2011, 03:56 PM

JASONKAT · 08-08-2011, 04:06 PM

It is a spoiler, because, even though we all knew he was gonna show up, we didnt know when. I think on the front page maybe it shoulda just been posted as "Clips and Caps to the new Episode: SPOILERS ALERT" That way, anyone who opens up the home page has the choice whether or not to look inside the thread. As it stands, it's spoiled as soon as you open the page that Panthro and the tank show up. I would think some people like myself woulda liked to watch the episode then mark out when panthro showed up. Just a suggestion for future reference.

JASONKAT · 08-08-2011, 06:00 PM

In the old show, didnt Panthro built the thundertank out of junk from the crash landing?
Anyhow So im guessing he already has it in this reboot, rather than showing him builting it, however why do they sell snarf w the tank if panthro is the guy who has it and drives it.

Shifty02 · 08-08-2011, 06:06 PM

Needs more of Panthro or the Thundertank's classic theme music!
Otherwise awesome clip.

hdeleon · 08-08-2011, 07:10 PM

freaking AWESOME!!! I can't wait!

Because Panthro's figure is already sold separately and they probably figured no one would buy Snarf by himself and so included him with the tank.

That was a little rude.

I received a phone call during that part and didn't realize what happened until after I posted here. I downloaded the episode and I understand now.

Excuse me.

JASONKAT · 08-08-2011, 07:41 PM

yea tru, i know i would buy him if he was sold as a single toy (snarf), then again, they could have added snarf w lion-o. like as a bonus.
I liked how they packaged the tank tho. w snarf included, but for those who never seen or heard of the show, will think that snarf has sumthing to do w the tank, but he doesnt.

Wilyjo · 08-08-2011, 08:03 PM

Yeah I think including Snarf with a Lion-O figure would've been better but whatever. Didn't expect to see Panthro this early, not that I'm complaining!

Can't wait till Friday again

Ravenxl7 · 08-08-2011, 08:20 PM

Wasn't expecting to see Panthro till episode 5, tbh. It's nice to see he'll show up for at least the ending of episode 4. I also wasn't expecting the Thundertank to exist at this point. I was expecting to see Panthro develop and build it as the show progressed.

They could easily make a connection between Snarf and the tank in some future episode. Don't imagine he'd have a bigger connection to it than Panthro does, but there could still be some sort of connection we haven't seen/heard of yet. Then again, the reason for including Snarf could be to get people like me to buy it (I really want Snarf, don't have much interest in the tank, but the only reason I'm even considering getting it, is because of Snarf, lol...).

wesitron · 08-08-2011, 09:29 PM

Can't wait for Panthro. Panthro is all that is man.

Er, cat.

Cat-Man.

Thing.

JASONKAT · 08-08-2011, 11:55 PM

Yea true, they can always or there just "might" already be sumthing like that on the way.
Where..maybe the gang gets caught by mutants or mumra and then maybe snarf saves them using the tank or sumthing like that.

On a side-note. 1 thing i loved about the old thundertank, was that it could go under water. i remember when the top would be like a glass shield and it would turn into sum kinda sub. does anybody remeber that? good times.

Yeah, I remember that from the first episode with the Berserkers. It could go underwater, could rid on-top of water, and could even tunnel underground. The original Thundertank was very versatile. Only thing I don't remember it ever doing was fly, but they had the Thunderclaw, Hovercat, and Thunder Wings for that.

Should be interesting to see what all the new show's Thundertank can do.

Balgus82 · 08-09-2011, 01:15 PM

Snarf is with the Thundertank toy because they probably wanted to give people a figure included with the tank that would activate the "thunderlynx" without giving away a more popular/expensive figure.

God please no bear berbils. If they have to make an appearance, I hope Mummra exterminates the race before the end of the episode.

Tony_Bacala · 08-10-2011, 08:56 PM

Must. Resist. Spoilers.

wesitron · 08-10-2011, 09:19 PM

Dude, I LOVE Berbils! I think there was a rumor about them making an appearance early into the show, but I wonder if they got bumped for the Petalers. Either way, I need me some Berbil Bill. C'mon! It's robot teddy bears! They're like cyborg Ewoks!

Balgus82 · 08-10-2011, 09:22 PM

Berbils are in the show. they showed an image of one in IGNs thunder thursdays and the title of episode 9 is "Berbils."

GK Punk · 08-10-2011, 09:55 PM

Indeed, Just like Balgus says. The Robear Berbils are confirmed for this series.

Balgus82 · 08-10-2011, 11:49 PM

not to mention the berbil paw in the first episode.

Gots no love for the robear berbils? The cats would have starved on third earth without their robear berbil fruit. Plus we know they are in the show for all the aforementioned reasons but also because in episode one of the new series when lion o goes to the black market the tech hand that he holds is a robear berbil hand

Lord Lion O · 08-11-2011, 05:28 AM

I'm guessing/hoping we get some back story about the berbils. I agree that they could be the ones that teach panthro about tech but maybe we learn who created them as well.

Hyper Jaguar · 08-11-2011, 08:21 AM

So does Panthro drive the ThunderTank while Lion-O and Tygra drive the ThunderRacers? Sounds Interesting.

squawkbot · 08-11-2011, 04:15 PM

Panthro's stealing some of Batman's moves.

Reminds me of some of the scenes in Batman The Animated Series with the batmobile....but with red eyes/headlights.

pretty bad ass, glad i ordered it off TRU

Great maybe they're already dead. LOL Ah well, even if not, they did wonders for snarf, so......
