Speaking of Toxic Crusaders, how crazy was that a film that was pretty much X Rated got a Saturday morning show. Not even Ron Jeremy got one of those in his heyday

Anybody remember Sylvanian Families? It's a very popular toyline from Japan that combines anthropomorphic stuffed animal figurines with these treehouse like plastic dollhouses. In the United States, we know Sylvanian Families as Calico Critters. Anyway, in 1987, Dic (now that's pronounced Dick. Need a reason why? Watch The Inspector Gadget Christmas Special at the part where Gadget ends up in a dungeon with Santa. With the fact that that was made for children, Andy Heyward is soooooo lucky Chris Hansen had not yet been invented in 1992) made a cartoon based on the cult toy line. The cartoon didn't leave much of an impact on the American audience (that and considering the beginning plot of each episode, the show has not aged well) but it was popular enough in Spain as well as the UK. So much so, the latter country gave the world another Sylvanian cartoon later that year and then years later, an OVA of it was made in Japan. In the UK, the toyline is the most popular. 2nd best in that category would be the franchise's native Japan and we lousy Americans come in 3rd by default because of the toyline's cult status. 



Without further ado, here's the intro for the US Sylvanian Families cartoon aka the Dick Entertainment one

You know what really sucks? The fact that The Mysterious Cities of Gold's small cult following in the US isn't enough to warrant the sequel series a US release. Especially since the show ends this upcoming year and I really want to see what happens to Esteban and friends. Lucky Australia for getting the show imported!

Awesome! I'm so glad I found that cartoon. Not being able to figure it out for all these years was a real pain.

another forgotten show, blazing dragons, it was produced by the nelvana company (behind other shows like beetlejuice and the little bear cartoon) and aired in 1996. alongside its airdates, game company crystal dynamics worked on and released a blazing dragons video game for the sega saturn and playstation.
