Is This Proof of a Thundercats Movie Starring Panthro’s Severed Head?
Talk/rumors of a CG-animated Thundercats movie have been floating around for years, but the above pic might be proof that’s it’s actually happening. It looks like a sculpted head for Panthro, although tooned up much in the way that the turtles were tooned up in the recent CG TMNT movie. Of course, as with any totally random, unaccredited picture on the internet, we should all assume that it’s definitely true, and freak out accordingly.
Incidentally, this tip comes from Television Without Pity’s Moviefile blog, and specificlly by its newest addition of TR contributor, former ToyFare Editor and all-around great guy Zach Oat. You all should check it out, but slightly less than you check out Topless Robot, because frankly, I need the affection way more than he does.
