Cartoon Network Thundercats Trailer

Cartoon Network has released the much awaited first trailer to the new Thundercats and things are noticeably different. Those expecting a remake of the original series can take a seat as the trailer shows us something else.

So what fun things do we see here?

• Thundera has not yet been destroyed and seems to be the main setting, at least for now. So we'll get to see Thundera at its height and that will be really exciting.
• The Cat's Lair will still be around. What's the Thundercats without their headquarters!
• Jaga, Lion-O's mentor and eldest ThunderCat, will be in the series.
• Grune the Destroyer, a Thunderian General, is back and has not yet been banished for his failed coup.
• Claudius, Lord of the Thundercats, will be around and looks like we'll see him a lot! 
• Lion-O seems to be a young adult and they may be forgoing the aging story.
• Tygra gets an outfit more similar to the original series (as opposed to the green 'military' outfit in the promo photo) and he can still turn invisible!
• Cheetara looks like she will be all around badass.
• Snarf, WilyKit, and WilyKat will be running around the show.
• Mumm-Ra's face can be seen as a quick flash on the blade of the Sword of Omens. 
• It appears that Lion-O is not the leader of the Thundercats just yet. So we'll get to see how he steps into that role.
• Panthro is not seen in this trailer. It was said in an earlier interview that he is an older veteran and out exploring Third Earth but will join the Thundercat team.

I must say that this trailer has gotten me to be fully on board with this show. The fact that a fully populated Thundera is around has me excited. The animation style looks great and its going to be really cool to see all of these characters back again, including those that we didn't get to see much of in the original!
