Thundarr the Barbarian is one of my all time favourite Saturday morning cartoons. Watched it every week without fail.
Watched some episodes again on YouTube a while ago, and it's still awesome!

I watched Thundarr every Saturday when it originally aired. I loved it then, but haven't seen it since, I'm kinda scared to see if it's still entertaining for me.

It still holds up for an old saturday morning cartoon. First off, you will notice that Ookla looks way to much like a wookie. Its a little more violent than heman was to. Some pretty good design work on the villians.

I dont remember much merchandise. I think there was a lunch box....but cant think of much eles. Probably had more than blackstar though.

Blackstar had those cool galoob figures though....

Hmmmm....

Best. Saturday. Morning. Cartoon. EVER!!!! Unlike a lot of shows from the time, they didn't skimp on the action. Or weird. When I was a kid I'd watch obsessively, making notes on all the monsters.

I was about 13 or 14 when this was on. It was OK, but never one of my faves. I tried watching it again when someone had it on YouTube. Again, it was just OK.

And I'll throw in an "Ariel! Ookla! Ride!"
