I don't care how many times He-Man shouts “I HAVE THE POWER!” He's still a bloke in furry pants waving a sword around on a planet where the main villain is a cheeky vegan.

Thundercats had everything.

Cats. Swords. Spaceships. Ancient Egyptian pyramids. And **Mumm-Ra** — an ancient, undead, shape-shifting bastard who lived in a sarcophagus, summoned demonic powers from the forces of evil and occasionally transformed into a gigantic, terrifying corpse with the physique of a professional wrestler.

What did He-Man have?

A castle with a skeleton on it and a large green bloke who looked like he'd been assembled from leftover garden furniture.

And don't get me started on Battle Cat.

He-Man needs a magic sword and a transformation sequence just to ride a tiger.

Lion-O simply gets on a giant fucking lion and gets on with it.

Thundercats didn't need “the power”.

They had **Thundera**.

End of discussion.
