Cosmocats!

It was only later that I remembered the original Thundercats didn't air as Thundercats in France, but as Cosmocats.
We had at least one French family holiday during the major Thundercats phase of my life. I was delighted to discover a whole new country full of merchandise, including a comic book, a collectable mustard jar with Lion-O ('Starlion') and Cheetara ('Felibelle') on it and a 7" single of the theme song, which I played so often I can still remember most of the French lyrics:
Cosmocats extraterrestres!
Cosmocats, c'est vous
Qui avez tous les pouvoirs
Cosmocats, à vous!
Cosmo, cosmo, cosmo, Cosmocats!
Cosmo, cosmo, cosmo, Cosmocats!
I could go on, but I won't. I make no claims for the accuracy of the grammar, either.
Later on Saturday I discovered Cosmocats DVDs in a shop called Kandy, which appears to be the French equivalent of Poundstretcher. I recognised the episodes immediately, even with French titles, and bought the one with Tygra on the case as a present for my ten-year-old self.
(I also brought back a collectable mustard jar, with Spielberg's Tintin on it this time, having recently finished the Bolt and Mittens mustard obtained on a previous trip.)
* YMMV, rose-tinted spectacle etc. If I'd been a fan of My Little Pony in the 1980s I expect I'd now be complaining about how terrible the new one is.
Much as I felt about the appearance of Fingermouse in the late 1980s, with its messages of oneupmanship and being One of the Crowd contrasting with the laid-back mildly psychedelic Fingerbobs, the original, in the early 1970s...
I've seen a couple of episodes of the new one, and it's OK, but what's the point other than making diehards like me go 'WTF TYGRA AND LION-O ARE BROTHERS NOW??'?
Also, brilliant comments to that video. 'toute notre jeunesse c pa du pokémon' is my new motto.
Not all TV memories need be disproven later on - watching an episode of Animal Kwackers the other week just reminded me of how wondrously psychedelic it was for a kids' show, and probably helped usher a few protofurs into their future fandom. =:) (And irreparably scarred a few others =:)
FWIW, whilst I've had an enjoyment of MLP for a while, the recent FiM quite caught me - the best description I've read was "much better than it needed to be". It could've been just something that served the purpose, but they wound up bringing in some particularly good talent to create the new show, making it something with far broader appeal.
And I must now locate an example of Fingermouse, and compare against Fingerbobs..
If only we'd gone in for Spanish hols instead - it makes me sigh to think of all the Muskehounds tat I missed.
