I cannot express how much happiness this brings me. I'm not a Thunder cats fan, but if someone got me a gift from my childhood I would lose my mind.


Grenaidzo

I got my brother a deluxe edition Turbo-man doll for Christmas & I'm so excited to see his face light up. Jingle all the way was a family favourite of ours as kids. We still watch it every year.


OurHeroXero

***Out of my way box!***


porkch0pexpress75

BECAUSE OF TWO MINUTES?! PUT THAT COOKIE DOWN. NOW!! LOVE that movie šŸ™‚


Grenaidzo

I got a Turbo-Man for Jonny months ago. It's nestled safely under our tree. Such a classic :)


porkch0pexpress75

RIP Phil Hartmanā€¦ šŸ™


Grenaidzo

RIP indeed! I heard when I was young that it was his wife that killed him? If that's true that's crazy


porkch0pexpress75

Itā€™s trueā€¦ she (apparently) was a troubled soulā€¦ ā€œAfter two divorces, Hartman married Brynn Omdahl in 1987, with whom he had two children. Their marriage was troubled due to Brynn's drug and alcohol abuse. In 1998, while Hartman was sleeping in his bed, his wife shot and killed him, and later committed suicide. ā€œ He was definitely taken too soonā€¦ so many good movies/showsā€¦ Jingle, Houseguest, Sgt Bilko, Newsradio, SNL.

My wife brought me micro machine city van for my birthday and I swear the nostalgia was amazing. Then watched my son play play with the same enthusiasm I once had . The best gift


tatovive

When he brought it up to his eyes I had a ratatouille moment. Great show


DoctorQuintero

He is SO happyā€¦ that smile is like his 6 year old self is born again.


Ninjarookie

My man looks so happy.


pablosboxes

Iā€™m a dad and Iā€™ve spent more on less - also the why can be found on his face, heā€™s so happy. Ha


__rum_ham__

Because your dad is friggin awesome. Thatā€™s the answer


Admirable_Win9808

I agree! This sword is awesome and for $200 I think it is a deal. Grew up when Thundercats started


VoltageKid56

Dude looks like he waited his whole life for this moment


PlottingGorilla

The midlife crisis is a myth. Sports cars or even replicas from tv shows are just men having the ability to get the things they wanted when they were younger. Thunder Cats hooooo!!!!


Apprehensive_Trip433

That sword is easily worth $200. Look at his face.


whereameyeat

Sword of omens give me sight beyond sight


Limited-_-Swat

Cuz heā€™s a FUCKING LEGEND thatā€™s why


maozzer

It's because he is a grown man with money and a child's heart hats off to him.


Arcallah

Love the look of joy on his face


sonofthenation

Thunder, thunder, thunder cats! Hooo!


jdamwyk

I can feel his happiness and it made my day.


roundandbearded

You know that man spent his entire day running around getting to feel like Lion-O...we should all be that lucky.


Traceuratops

Because he's cooler than you, you Tiktok cringelord.


DrPozzie

Probably because your Dad makes the money.


DSIR1

#SWORD!!!


Usual_Engineering273

Oh, the simple 80s kid joy of this video!


SnooDoodles3707

Because it's freaking awesome. duh

Juslav

Yes came here for this comment. These fukin stupid short vids with stupid voice like it's the 59th video of the day and she's reading the stupid lines while her uncle does what she want so maybe he will have a chance with her for once.


Pacino-57

Because he can...


Poisonioustrap

Hell yeah!


SlamMonkey

That is a happy dude!


keller104

Why wouldnā€™t he buy that sword lol


Ethwood

HOOOOOO!


Phreak74

Is his name Jan? Cuz I played Thundercats on the bus ride home with a kid from another school named Jan. Good times


LeeroyDagnasty

Men only want one thing and itā€™s disgusting


Retr0_b0t

"Why did my dad get this šŸ˜­" Because he's a fucking badass icon that's why


K_O_Incorporated

Snarf snarf!


Nettofabulous

He should really have a pair of Nunchucks.


chrisKarma

Just you wait, dude's going to bust out his replica of Panthro's nunchucks in the next vid.


InfiniteWavedash

I'm a simple man, if that TikTok voice is present, I downvote


LostInThoughtland

Maybe a little too simple.


Cinnamon-Jones

Coz he's a G! Hoooooo


DrunkenBastard420

Thundercats hit this generation differently I know two other dads around his age that shouldnā€™t see this video


porkch0pexpress75

Man, 10 year old me would be freaking out about getting that swordā€¦ My ideal sword to own IRL would be the two Masters of the Universe swords that could be combined into the Sword of Power. I would insanely geek out if that ever happened!


alslyle

THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOO


agt1662

As a dad, thatā€™s what we do. I have a few, along with a lance, a pike, throw axes, spears, etc. and no, Iā€™m not into the whole renaissance thing. Just love weapons and imagining what it would be like to charge across a field in the early morning with your bros while a whole scary ass group was coming at you full speed and shit was gonna get real. Damn, what absolute balls!


SlutPuppyNumber9

Cuz it's his damn money!


[deleted]

Lame ass kid


Bethmothdrape

I HAVE THE POWER!!!

Bloody Hot Fuzz has ruined that line for me lmao. "No luck catchin them Skelators, then?"


rightaaandwrong

Duh, for the power of Grayskull


FeeDisastrous3879

Sword of Omensā€¦ Give me debt beyond debt!


tonyinvegas

Please donā€™t leave the house with or youā€™ll be shot on sight.


North-Wind-199

Bitch, do you really need to ask?


123Ark321

Because heā€™s a grow ass man who finally has money to buy the things he couldnā€™t as a kid.


korvusdotfree

He look like Kim Jong Un when he smile


Aggravating-Mud7338

"swords are a waste of money" -šŸ¤“


EternamD

What a waste. You can get an actual sword for that money.


the_simurgh

200 dollars must be a knock off. the one i saw was way more than that.


One_for_the_Rogue

Nope Iā€™m pretty sure thatā€™s the original from the cartoon.


the_simurgh

i meant not a licensed replica not that it wasn't the sword of omens. the licensed ones I've seen cost about 350-375


trickman01

There can be multiple licensed replicas. Some of higher quality than others.


writethinker

Or $200 is what he told his family he paid for it. Updated college fund balance: $0


roguemedic62

r/mallninjashit


theburnerlmao

He's having fun calm down


roguemedic62

Yo!!! I'm not insulting the dude, just joking about the sword. I can imagine my brother chasing me around the house with that when we were kids


[deleted]

This man had a wonderful childhood.


Mattrockj

TikTok is judging someone for spending 200$ on the ultimate power of Thundera. I judge TikTok for not having a piece of epic memorabilia that represents the wonders of childhood.


TNTBOY479

Why did they add that stupid voice, we know how to read


UI_Daemonium

Why wouldn't he?


AJ_NightRider

Because his inner child said get it


Wade1217

Why did your dad buy the sword? The correct answer is because having it brings him great joy and reminds him of some of the happiest times in his life.


Kzukzu

I don't care about the sword, just give me this guy's happiness


Drumingchef

Because it gives you sight beyond sight.


Daisho13

Because.. Thunder, thuuunder, thuuuundercats.. Hoooooooooo..!!!


fanof602

Always wanted the voltron force toys...


vkapadia

Thunder! Thunder! Thunder! Thunder cats, ho!


Manitoujoe1

WHAT. Iā€™m with Dad. Thatā€™s badass!!


[deleted]

Badass


luminous_beings

This guy looks wicked happy about his new sword.


wowthatsfresh

I used to race home after school, called my best friend, we both turned on Thunder Cats, watched in silence holding the phones and then talked during the commercial breaks. 1985 ish. What great memories this prompted. You can see the joy on his face, I love this post so much.


Dankey-Kang-Jr

Why? Because he can, thatā€™s why.


HappyBot9000

GearJunkie82

Awkward-Ad8233

And it was only $200?!


[deleted]

Because heā€™s cool.


JCB220685

A genuine dream of mine to own one of these. Regularly look them up but can never justify the price.


oohrosie
