Recently we heard that there would be a new staction figure line and a new animated series for Thundercats. Well now we know what came of the action figure line. I did not see this coming, but Bandai has been named the global toy licensee of the new Thundercats series.
I was truly expecting Mattel to get this license and for the line to be in scale with their DC and MOTU offerings. Bandai’s best effort is Power Rangers and Ben10, which is not saying much. Bandai is really going to have to step their game up to get collectors to sign on to this line, myself included.

It seems that Cartoon Network will be getting a Green Lantern animated series possibly as early as Fall 2011. According to information disseminated at an investors’ day for Time Warner, the CEOs of Turner Networks and Warner Bros. both made comments about collaboration between their businesses and used this animated series as a shining example. The animated series will follow the June 17, 2011 release of the Green Lantern feature film starring Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan.
