Thundercats Week :: Mumm-Ra

Thundercats Week wraps up (haha get it?) with Mumm-Ra!

Mumm-Ra, a mummy with the power to not be a mummy sometimes, is the sworn enemy of the Thundercats. Why would a mummy be an enemy of cats, you ask? Have you ever seen what a cat can do to a roll of toilet paper? Now imagine being wrapped inside that roll of toilet paper!

As a child, Mumm-Ra watched as his parents (his daddy and...wait for it...his MOTHER...) were brutally torn apart by a pack of wild Siamese, and swore from that day forth to get angry and buff every time cats were around.

This Mumm-Ra action figure originally came with some weapons, a flashlight type thingamajig that lit up his eyes and his pet doggy named Mumm-Rover or Ma-Mutt or Ravage or something like that. I don't know, I barely remember that part of the cartoon either, but I know as well as Mr. Cool that every cartoon character of the eighties needed a pet sidekick. And since dogs hate cats (hey, they were finally on to something!) Mumm-Ra got a dog.

Well that does it for Thundercats Week. I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed putting it together, which wasn't all that much to be honest.

Just kidding! It was good for me too.
