** Almost ''immediately'' after Panthro {{spoiler|lost his arms}} fans not only theorized that {{spoiler|he would get new cybernetic ones}}, but {{spoiler|it's the Berbils that hook him up with them.}} Guess what happened in the very next episode.

Line 42:

* [[The Other Darrin]]: Leo is voiced by [[Will Friedle]] in his first appearance because of Lion-O reliving events of the past through Leo. "Birth of the Blades" has [[Jason Marsden]] voicing him, and this is likely what Leo's actual voice sounds like. This is something of a [[Casting Gag]], since Friedle and Marsden are good friends.

* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: [[Cree Summer]] and [[Will Friedle]] play rebel leaders and sweethearts Panthera and Leo, but Summer was also Max Gibson, girl friday to Friedle's Batman successor in ''[[Batman Beyond (Animation)|Batman Beyond]]'', then they later played the [[Official Couple]] in ''[[Tony Hawks Under Ground (Video Game)|Tony Hawks Under Ground]]''.

* [[Teasing Creator]]: The crew just ''loves'' messing with their fellow fans, especially at the [http://crewofomens.tumblr.com Crew of Omens] blog, and occasionally [[Deviant ART]], where a crewmember [http://farfie-kins.deviantart.com/art/THUNDERCATS-HO-246011858 teased] the [[Whole Episode Flashback]] of "Old Friends" in an early review comment. Almost every question of "Will (X) from the old show appear in a future episode?" has been answered with a sly "Maybe" and a wink. They're also very fond of the [[Mathematician's Answer]].
