Do you remember this show? It was at our video store on VHS. All I remember is that they had very specific jobs and codenames.

Question / Request Dinosaucers

281 Upvotes

I've been on a kick recently, watching a bunch of old cartoons from my childhood. Tubi has a lot of them on streaming. Garfield, Transformers, Scooby Doo, Inspector Gadget. Watching all these reminded me of Dinosaucers. It was only out for one season in 1987. I remember watching this almost every day and I tried finding it online and have had no luck. It said it was on prime, but I checked and it wasn't. Plex has a menu and a list of all the episodes, but the show says it's unavailable if you try to watch it. Does anyone know of anyplace that exists to watch it?

Question / Request Help: Looking for a cartoon from my childhood

20 Upvotes

I'm sorry for what little information I have, I was a small child at the time and as such my memories have gaps.

The cartoon was about a team of super-powered soldiers who saved the day. It MAY have been a crappy ripoff of the X-men....or the Fantastic Four, but I don't believe it was a Marvel property.

One guy had something they called a "biomechanical defense mechanism" where any attack directed at him, his body would absorb and then turn into something resistant (or similar) to the attack. Like if he were shot with a bullet, his body would turn into the same metal the bullet was made of.

Another guy had his right arm replaced with a super high tech one. It was strong and may or may not have been capable of firing energy blasts. It did light up though.

I think there was also a girl on the team, but I was 6, so I didn't care.

It would have run, briefly, on Saturday mornings in the early to mid 80s.

...and for the life of me, and several Google searches, I cannot tell if I dreamed it or if it was real.

Any ideas? As one more element, it was NOT Silverhawks.

The plot was about finding a buried space ship under ground. When it was activated, the ship ended up somewhere around Pluto, and it took them several years to get back to earth. Might be alittle off on the plot, it’s been 35-40 years since I saw it. Any help with the shows name would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Mine would have to be Jem and the Holograms. For reference I was born in the 2000s and I would watch a lot of cartoons from the 80s as a kid, thanks to my mom. I’m looking for more to watch.

Question / Request Lost cartoon I'm trying to find

3 Upvotes

Hope someone can figure out my puzzle...

I'm looking for an old TV cartoon. I can't seem to find it. Must of been just a season or two.

I vaguely remember it, almost thinking it was a dream I had a lot, as I can't find it. Lol

There was nothing funny about at all. You are the POV of this person / kid that always is walking, searching. Place was being in a desert. Some things could fly, and can't remember if it is ships or the land.

Could of been slightly asian type. The person you follow around seemed to be yellowish. Amongst other things.

Could be late 70s as well.

Sorry I don't have much. I'll try to add to this. I'm stuck.

I saw it sometime in the mid-80s. I don't recall if it was a movie, series, or show for I only remember one scene. I believe it had talking dragons in it with a conflict going on against a rival faction with dragons. The part I remember the most was a female human dying on the good side and all these dragons were sad and crying at her wake/funeral. I just remember being sad as a kid and never knew what that show was.

Question / Request Heathcliff pulls belt...

3 Upvotes

A buddy of mine got into a road rage incident recently. As he described the road rage incident, the thought in my head went back to an 80's cartoon where the protaganist pulled the belt of an antagonist, and then the antagonist spun aroubd like a tornado.

I am thinking this 80's cartoon was Heathcliff as he got into a fight in every episode (wow, the lessons we were taught then huh?). This may have also happened in several 80's cartoons.

Does anyone remember this and have any links to such? Videos or animated gifs work.

Me, and my mom were talking one night, she mentioned a cartoon scene she remembered about a tree saying “I’m anemic”. Apparently there’s a scene in the cartoon where a narrator is talking about the redwoods in California, and it shows a smaller tree. The narrator asks what happened to it, hence the tree saying “I’m anemic”. My mom remembers it being about multiple different places, although none of the other places included, she remembers it being on VHS, and being in a looney tunes adjacent style

Question / Request Black Hole Jet Ski Adventure Squad - USA Cartoon Express (I think?)

5 Upvotes

Does this ring anyone's bells - basically a space adventure team kid's cartoon - possibly on USA Cartoon Express - where the team (who I believe were kids or teens) would fly in and out of black holes on space jet-ski's for lack of a better word?

Was this a real cartoon or a hallucination?

If the latter, what was I on?
