SilverHawks
Part metal, part real, all AWESOME. Any kid from the 80's remembers the great cartoons that were born from that special time of television and the Silverhawks are no exception. Created and produced by the same team that brought you Thundercats, Silverhawks brings to life a show that is very similar. The good guys are basically cyborgs flying through space (where you can breathe) fighting the team of "mobsters" led by the evil Mon*Star, who is this shows version of Mum-Ra.
The show does a great job of standing the test of time, and with the exceptions of the theme song and a couple of the characters the show doesn't really leave you with that bad 80's taste in your mouth. The plots are relatively simple (this is a kids show) but the animation and design of the series is enough to keep any cartoon lover interested.
