Love this Idea and can’t wait to see the individual videos that play out the battles, some of these are definitely going to be hotly contested 😎👍🏼

Centurions would wreck everyone

This is awesome!!

Without Ramrod, the (shakes while typing) Star Sheriffs are going down.

Very cool concept, and great way to shine light on the lesser known properties.

Galaxy Rangers vs Star Sheriffs!!?!! Bummer these two favorites of mine are meeting in the first bracket! The Monsters vs The Joes and C.O.P.S. vs Sky-Command will make for some exciting battles. FoF vs the Spiral Zone Riders taking place near an active volcano will be cool to see.

I also enjoyed Areyoubeingserved at a young age, but being 5 yrs younger than you it was in 97 for me. Both my dad and I loved watching the nature docs on PBS and one fateful night we both discovered the Brit-coms and it became a common engagement for us. = - D

I am in utter shock that you have never seen The Mysterious Cities of Gold, it is a a great show and is up there with Robotech as a show that has aged like a fine wine. You really need to watch it sometime.

Amazing to know there's still cartoons out there the majority don't know of at all. Leave to the Dr to bring this lost media to light!

Doc prescribes 2 PowerMasters toys off eBay and plenty of rest.

I have a red eye action figure still unopened on my shelf! As for requests here are 5. 1. power team / video power 2. Robotix 3. Kidd video 4. Saturday supercade 5. Wild west cowboys of moo mesa

Gobots were also part of the guardians of the galaxy holiday special where we find out cy-kill killed drax relative! Gunn confirmed as transformers is canon to the comic universe gobots are canon to the movie universe! A guy dressed as cy-kill was in it also. This was an official cameo from hasbro and ban Dai!

In Clue Club, technically speaking the dogs only talked to each other & the human characters only hear barks and wimpers when the dogs "talk".

I really appreciate the shout out @dr.animaction All i could remember was that this show aired all 3 episodes early one weekday morning. I remembered the show when i mentioned it to a couple at a small meet up where we bought bootleg tapes in 1995. They said they had it and made the copy i had (with many other japanese anime), which is possible as why my tape was toast so fast since i watched it a ton over the years at EP speed. What i did not remember was the year i came out, i was always fuzzy on that. Thanks for correcting me there.👍🏾

I would like a deep dive on Ranma 1/2.

I'm thinking Biker Mice From Mars, because one villain is named Ronald Rump.

Impressively obscure, and yet it probably cost someone at Lionel their job in the end.

Impressive! I'd never heard of this either, and I was deep in the toy/comic/cartoon scene back in the day. Must have been a smaller, regional release, which is why so few remember it. Clearly the Lionel company tried to give it their best shot, hiring the best int he biz like TMS and that voice cast. But the core toy is Far too generic and clunky to gain any traction in the bloodsport arena that was mid-80's toy aisles. Even for '87, which did see some of the Big IP's like GiJOE and Transformers move out of their glory days and into their more experimental phases. But there were still too many other companies trying to emulate their success, to little avail in most cases. At least now, should I spot one of these weird boxy things on a table at a toy convention, I'll have a better idea what they might be.

Can't really Deep Dive in a kiddie pool, can we? But it's also why I enjoy this channel: it's not just the nostalgic highlights.

An interesting piece of lost media. With this coming out in 87 and the Powermaster transformers toys debuting a year later perhaps Hasbro squashed this before it got too far in order to ensure there would be no brand confusion?

I must have seen it when it first aired, but can only say that because I remember the Statue of Liberty/Mt. Rushmore mashup.

This show was my white whale for the longest time. I remember watching it when it aired, liking it a great deal, and then never hearing another thing about it until you mentioned it offhandedly in one of the early Animated 90s videos. It was one of those things I'd try to scrounge up info about from a vague memory of over the years, and absolutely no one knew what I was talking about. This and Pandamonium were my two "I KNOW I'm not making this up, why does absolutely no one know what I'm talking about" shows.

Nicely done.

Do a deep dive on Dinosaucers. 😀👍

PowerMasters should come back one day. 😀👍

Nice episode, Doc!

Wow. Just when i thought I knew everything there was to know about 80's cartoons. Never heard of this one, either. I'm with you, though. The vehicle designs are awful. I would have likely passed right over this one back in the day.

I'm excited for some of your new content like the Animated 90's film edition, the 70's cartoon retrospective and more of your rankings.

Well written Boss. I am looking forward to a number of these. The Cartoon Breakdown and Analysis is very missed.

Doc. I sent in my monthly dues for the SCTAGS, and I've yet to receive my official decoder pin nor my laminated membership badge. Who do I speak to about that? Seriously, though, can't wait for the new content!

Damn Cobra.

Great update. 😀👍

I have been listening to Orbital Bacon that is another cartoon youtuber with content that covers similar shows that you did. While you are not able to become the showman that Bacon is, you did provide some helpful bits of information about classic cartoons from the 80s, 90s and some parts that go into a bit more detail. You even covered Vytor the Starfire Champion, then a year later or so Orbital Bacon had a few episodes of Vytor on his Sat Morning Cartoon stream and I would like to think it all came about because someone recommended it who originally saw your Animated 80s series and the research went from there to a few episodes being shown on Bacon's Sat Morning Cartoon streams. So you do have a significant value in order to learn about the lost cartoons of the past that are hard to find information from. So don't beat yourself up with the lack of recent content, you still did great job with uncovering some hidden gems.

I'm a huge 1980s fan I watched Silver Hawks, Thundercats, Transformers,The Real Ghostbusters, Muppet Babies, Bugs Bunny and Tweety, Flintstones Kids, A Pup Named Scooby Doo, Defenders of the Earth, Jetsons, MrT, Smurfs,Ducktales87,COPS, Potato Head, My Little Pony n Friends, SheRa, HeMan, Pound Puppies and of course Jem Jem should be up there too!!!

Pretty interesting. The one statement that I'd make Is that the officer probably should have had various (officer grade) for their rank. Major Bludd doesn't have a Cobra symbol because he's a merc that's kept on continual retainer, not an internal officer. Similarly Destro is an outsider that's working with Cobra but not actually a part of Cobra. We have to get to 1984's wave of toys before we start seeing any named figures internal to Cobra. (The Baroness, Storm Shadow, Copperhead, and maybe Scrap Iron) Effectively, I see the named Cobra characters as like the henchmen of a villain in a James Bond movie. That is to say, they're technically one rank below Cobra Commander, but instead of being standard officers (with the possible exception of Tomax and Xamot), they are instead specialists (like a villain's Henchmen). So they might all have an effective rank of Colonel, with outside affiliated characters having an honorary rank that's equivalent. As such, the officers seem to have been a generic hand wave to give the Cobra Troopers some military leadership and should represent any officer rank under a rank held by the named characters. Of course, that's from going off the cards and the figure design, and not how they're used in the show. I agree with the changes you mention for the characters, with one exception. and that is, given that there isn't a Cobra Communications trooper yet, I'd want to see an obvious walkie talkie on the officers at least.

Regarding the weapons of the respective figures, the thing that makes sense to me is that the designers were trying to echo images of the WWII Wehrmacht, where common soldiers carried a K98k, while NCO's and officers often carried something like an MP 40. This combination would at least visually resemble those WWII images, even if the actual firearms made no sense.

Zap will always have a special place in my heart as he was my first GI Joe.

Scarlett's leotard has always struck me as problematic for her assigned role. It just doesn't fit in, especially considering the general feel of her 1982 teammates. At the very least, I would make the lower torso the same color as the upper legs; this would make the tan upper piece look like some type of protective vest, while also making the lower section some kind of trouser.

Hey Doc, i got a nostalgia fever! When is the next dose of Toon Head Livestream? I need my fixxx! = - D

Great video, went through all 10 of them today can't wait for you to finish 1982 and go on to 1983-1986.

Great video's, glad I found you on UA-cam... I thought the the RA in the SN ment "Real American" as a kid.

Glad I found these they are great, can't wait until you finish 1982 and get into 1983-1986. Note on Rock n' Roll- I think its a German MG42 rather then a M60

These breakdowns are so good.

Given that he served in Vietnam and was still active in 82 when the series starts, it is not out of the question for him to have the time to take those extra schools between the end of the vietnam conflict and the start of the series. I would agree it is unusual, but they are supposed the best of the best so, could happen.

The trooper is my favorite figure. I don't actually know how many I have, I think around 14 Troopers and 7 Officers.

The silver thing on the Cobra's Right arm is a Garrote wire.

i think the arm detail you couldent identify would be zip tie hand cufes for kidnapping
