Not often I come across a list that I mostly agree with, but this one I am good with. Definitely expected Megatron at number 1, and when I was a kid Mumra scared the crap out of me. And yeah, Skeletor is just classic 80s bad guy with some great one liners.
Good list. Depends on the criteria you're looking for. But I agree with the top of your list mostly because of popularity of the cartoon. But I think Venger was a pretty wicked villain. His voice was wicked and many times when he appeared the heroes freaked out and just scattered they didn't even try to fight him they just ran that's how OP this dude was. But he wasn't a household name like Megatron and Skeletor.
The funny thing is : Almost every 80s cartoon villain was a servant / henchman to another greater evil that stood quiet in the background while appearing only in several episodes. Here are some examples: Megatron / Galvatron was under Unicrons control, though only in the movie and for a short period of time. While Hordak and Skeletor were the main antagonist on their worlds, both of them were loyal henchmen to Hordes Prime, the leader of the Hordes. Tex Hex from "BraveStarr" has been revived and granted dark powers by the evil Stampede, the archnemesis of the wise Shaman who in return gave Bravestarr his powers to fight them. Doctor Mindbender created Serpentor from the DNAs of Earth's greatest conquerors who later replaced Cobra Commander forcefully as ruler of the entire Cobra organization, giving them an eternal conflict of power just like Megatron and Starscream.
mumm- ra was very visually impressive. Megatron found please in evil, sometimes without motive. His original transformation was a freaking gun. He hated the good guys, he used and sacrificed his own. Hes died..and continued to be evil.
When I was a kid I never liked cobra commander's voice whenever i watch gi joe. Definitely megatron is on my top of my list, he's a formidable villain throughout the transformers franchise.
There was one time I actually felt sorry for Gargamel. It was the episode where Azreal his cat had vanished. I've never seen a man so heartbroken over losing his best friend!
Cobra Commander and Megatron are the best villains in G.I Joe and Transformers. Also, in the comics, they(Cobra and Decepticons) worked together to defeat G.I Joe and Autobots.
Well I don't know why the StayPuff Marshmallow Man would be called a villain in the cartoon series of the Real Ghostbusters when he and the main human characters were friends including with Slimmer and my choices for the other villains would be Dr. Scarab from the Bionic 6,the Eco Villains from Captain Planet and the Planeteers,Dr. Demon from Tranzor Z,the Robotech Masters and the Invid from Robotech and that villain from the cartoon series BlackStar.
I jokingly blame my mother for my love of power metal since she’s the one who put on the My Little Pony special when I was 4. She-ra and He-man didn’t help, either
Funny that you have Berg Katze in a police lineup, considering he is a late 70's villain and not 80's (Science Ninja Team Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets/G-Force).
Great video dude. Some cool villains here even if I didn't watch all of these shows. Most of mine would be from the 90s. I think Toadborg from Bucky O'Hare might top the list for me
Optimus Prime never died dough, he came back to life if i wasnt wrong in Generation 3 where he was back to life by some robots due to that the world was going down of a virus and they needed his help, it also where Galvatron make a promise to Optimus that it will be no more war between them, is the episode where several autobots and decepticons and humans gets evil and attacking anybody even themselfs.
Megatron also had a awesome support crew. Starscream offered so much comedic value and soundwaves voice was iconic!
So glad you put Megatron at the top

Monstar and Munrah were basically the same character, but both cool.
great video i loved watching thse shows back in the 80s
i liked seeing your videos. thanks for the old cartoons list👌

Mumm-ra is Definitely Number 1 on My List!!!
mumm- ra was very visually impressive. Megatron found please in evil, sometimes without motive. His original transformation was a freaking gun. He hated the good guys, he used and sacrificed his own. Hes died..and continued to be evil.
I love the cartoons of the 80's and 90's they are the best.
When I was a kid I never liked cobra commander's voice whenever i watch gi joe. Definitely megatron is on my top of my list, he's a formidable villain throughout the transformers franchise.
All hail megatron

great video man ... :-)
glad you liked! Do you have a top 5?
i agree with the top, in any order actually. Does are who come to mind when I think of 80ths villains.
I agree with your list except for using Gargamel put him out of that and put doctor in its place and you would have had a perfect list.
Cobra Commander and Megatron are the best villains in G.I Joe and Transformers. Also, in the comics, they(Cobra and Decepticons) worked together to defeat G.I Joe and Autobots.

Awesome list! All my favorite cartoons and have to agree on the number 1 villain! How about Dr.Claw from Inspector Gadget though? :P
+Doctor Video I liked claw but my list was compiled not just from what I liked but tons of research.
Awesome that you do a lot of research :) always apreciate a video with good foundation!
Is it me or does Cobra Commander in the video sound like the generation one starscream from Transformers?
You hit the nail on the head. Voice actor Chris Collins voice both of those characters. Good ear.
A good list, but it's "ven-jur" not "ven-ger". He's so bad that even the other villain, Tiamat is willing to ally with the kids to be rid of him.
Megatron! Excellent....
Venger. It's pronounced VEN-jur.
Ya, been a while. I forgot.
Let me know your TOP 5 Villains in the Comments!
1) Skeletor
2) Mumm-Ra
3) Megatron
4) Serpentor
5) Tex Hex
Nice list
Satan from My Little Pony was the biggest villain I recall. He wanted to turn the ponies into dragons to pull his chariot. That is evil and metal!
I jokingly blame my mother for my love of power metal since she’s the one who put on the My Little Pony special when I was 4. She-ra and He-man didn’t help, either

Skeletor and mumra are my favourite
If venger wants to kill dungeonMaster and dungeonMaster is his father that means that Venger wants to commit parricide then doesn't it?
cool
Cobra Commander should have been number one
Great video dude. Some cool villains here even if I didn't watch all of these shows. Most of mine would be from the 90s. I think Toadborg from Bucky O'Hare might top the list for me
+Matropolis haha. I remember Bucky O'Hare. Good one. Not on my radar tho. Lol
Venom & Cobra M.A.S.K. & G.I. Joe
D’Compose from Inhumanoids.
Ok...I'll give you Megaton but Skeletor should be #2
Lol. Fair enough.
Where's serpentor And galvatron ?
Cobra Commander.

Diesel from Thomas and friends

Optimus Prime never died dough, he came back to life if i wasnt wrong in Generation 3 where he was back to life by some robots due to that the world was going down of a virus and they needed his help, it also where Galvatron make a promise to Optimus that it will be no more war between them, is the episode where several autobots and decepticons and humans gets evil and attacking anybody even themselfs.
