    Saturday morning as a kid, after school on a wet wednesday, watching with your own little brats or laughing your head off at them as an adult just because you can. Most of us have or have had a fondness for animated capers at some stage. My question to you all is, which is the best one ever? Is it from the 80's? 90's? Maybe before or after those periods?! Well let's find out,shall we?!

    Would prefer nominations via PM folks. Just adds a little more mystery to the line-up and makes it less predictable. I'll throw yours in though Sour!

    That is an unfortunate draw :(

    Gotta go with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles though

    Cos they're heroes in a half-shell, and they're green!

    (Also the theme tune is awesome)

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I can remember watching this.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ; I was obsessed with the Turtles when I was a kid. Had the action figures, the duvet cover, the t-shirts, and any other TMNT merch I could get. Even now, in my thirties, I still have a Turtles hoodie and a Turtles wallet. Michelangelo was my favourite when I was young, but over the years I've channeled Raphael and grown up to be just as sarcastic and nihilistic as Raph was.

    Such an unfortunate draw... both should be in the shakedown to win this!

    I’ll go with He-Man because it was probably the main cartoon from my early childhood

    Would also have to lean Towards the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He-Man never really struck a chord with me at all, but I always remember visiting a cousin that lived in Dublin when I was a child, and he had all the Turtles merchandise. Used to watch the cartoon and skid around the room with the toy van and figures for hours on end. Always enjoyed that cartoon.
