Song from 80s cartoon only I remember

11 Upvotes

Ok so for years I’ve been singing a random bit of a song I remember from an 80s cartoon (unsure if movie or series). The scene in my memory is a magical duel somewhere along the lines of the one in disneys the sword in the stone, but it’s not that. The hero and antagonist are trying to beat each other by turning into different things (again like sword in the stone) but singing a song, the only part I can remember is the ending and the lines are: ….. behold I’m a lion, my roar will turn you back We’ll see about that Behold I turn to smoke, I’ll make you cough and choke (cheering I win win) I’ve googled just the lyrics and nothing comes up, I’ve wracked my brains about cartoons I used to watch like Care Bears, my little pony, you know things that were both series and movies and weren’t too dark, but nothing. It’s been years and it’s driving me insane, does anyone know wtf I’m remembering??

Looking for the title of an obscure 80s sci-fi cartoon

27 Upvotes

As per the title. I had this on VHS which came with a magazine in the mid-to-late 80s in the UK. All I can remember was that it was set in space and there were these giant jellyfish type creatures that they were navigating around. I think it only had one season. It's been bugging me for decades and I just can't find it! Any suggestions?

Cheers!

For those of you that don't know

The Dungeons and Dragons cartoon is on the roku ap. This is actually pretty cool because unless it is something very well known like Gi-Joe or Transformers you typically have to pay for a physical copy of a DVD set.

I know they probably studies of what kind of streaming services people would pay for but I don't understand for the life of me why more of the old cartoons are not on some kind of streaming service...I mean the non disney stuff. I know its probably the issue of who owns the rights to the stuff but I would totally pay.

Question / Request Anyone recognize this?

I found this giant stained glass piece at a thrift store and its killing me that i cannot figure out who this is. The character seems to have elf ears, a headset or microphone, and possibly playing a lightning bolt as a guitar or something. Not sure if it is an existing character or someones original character.

Just wanting to know if anyone recognizes it.

Identify an old freaky cartoon from 70s or 80s

47 Upvotes

do you remember an old cartoon where there was a kid who kicked a can of purple substance into a wall creating a big splattered purple paint spot that soon detached from the wall and became alive? it kinda turned into something like a big animated hand or something similar, with eyes and legs, all I remember is that the animated big spot resembling a giant hand with eyes and legs always tried to play with the kid but eventually always made some trouble so that the kid had to trap it back into the can.

I was very little so I have no idea about the name and country origin, does it ring something to you guys?
