^Yeah, I remember SWATCats. Watched it a lot, along with this other show I can't remember the name to. I don't even remember how it was drawn. I knew it had a bunch of dogs, all part of a secret agent style group, and their leader was the president's golden retriever. Don't remember it all that well...

I really liked Centurions.

There was also another one cartoon that I think is from the same time, and to me at least is sort of reminiscent of Centurions. It is called Spiral Zone. You will easily find it on youtube.

This topic reminds me of that Hasbro Project Unit:E which was a new toyline/comic series they were supposed to make about a futuristic world where several of their toylines had combined. The only one I can remember from the pitch is that Matt Trakker and MASK were a mercenary group based in Detroit. But they tied in Micronauts, Jem, MASK, Stretch Armstrong, Action Man, Battleship Galaxies, and a couple others. Sadly nothing has been said since last October so its probably dead.

Well Battleships has been recreated into a game called Battleship Galaxies. Which is like Heroscape meets Star Fleet Battles. It caused quite a stir in the boardgame world last year because it was created by the same three guys who made Heroscape. However, unlike Heroscape, it hasnt taken off yet and is most likely going to be killed by WOTC. Galaxies is what was suggested to be used for the universe. So more like Battleship the movie meets Starship Yamato. Which would work in a world were MASK are mercenaries.
