Location of the 4th stone.
 
So, whether or not CN renders this point moot, while looking at Joe's screencaps for Episode 25, I noted he focused on something that was a little difficult to see while watching the episode. We get the quick pan of all 4 stones being claimed a member of one of the species that will have dominion over it. The second-to-last one shown is the 4th stone, the as-of-yet-unidentified blue stone.

What stands out to me that I hadn't seen before is the largely-webbed hand. That indicates am aquatic lifeform (or partially so). Ducks and Platypi don't exactly seem like they would have been useful servants for Mumm-Ra. We've already seen the fishmen and that lot couldn't be the holders of a power-stone or they wouldn't have had the problem that they did. That leaves the one aquatic species we saw in Mumm-Ra's arsenal in "Legacy" - the Tigersharks.

Based on that it looks like an underwater quest was planned. I don't remember the Cats having a specific underwater vehicle in the OS, just a mod to the Thundertank. That would certainly give the Cats a reason to rebuild the Thundertank in the NS (well, other than Panthro absolutely not wanting to use The Feliner unless his life depends upon it).

I somehow expect that the Tigersharks wouldn't give up their power stone very easily when approached about it, either.

Awesome theory! I'd love to see this happen!

Good post, great theory.

Yeah, that image would ordinarily rule it out, but I just checked on the screencaps from "Legacy" and found this one:

That Tigershark definitely has the webbed hands (and finger-claws).

I would make sense if it were an acuatic race.
 
Since they wanted to separate the stones and balance the power, it would have being fair to send one to the air, one to water and two in land (since there were more "earth" races).

Hmmm dare I say bengali will be a tiger shark/ thundercat :eek::eek::eek:
