*** [[spoiler:Nitpick: while Tygra is definitely no longer ''the'' prince, "The Trials of Lion-O" indicates that he never stopped being ''a'' prince. When Lion-O dies, Tygra assumes kingship without Cheetara or Panthro gainsaying him. The only displacement was likely from "heir presumptive" (possibly "crown prince," though IIRC that's usually only applied to heirs apparent) to "second in line of succession".]]

Since Tigersharks is a part of ThunderCats2011 canon, this could further explain the origin of the Animals. In original Tigersharks, the heroes transformed into half-human half-fish people through the Fish Tank. For the 2011 canon, the different Animal races could be the result of using similar technology to create more diverse animal hybrids, only they never reverted back to human. Mumm-Ra uses each type of Animal for specific purposes, and it's possible that in the past human soldiers were modified with specific animal DNA to complete different kinds of missions. Mumm-Ra could even be some sort of very early prototype, or possibly a sorcerer who used this technology to become a human-bat hybrid.

In the WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats}} party pack, a choice for a trivia question is Rat Eye Daggers, the weapons Rataro used in the OS. While it heavily hints that Rataro will appear, it also implies that it's in a way related to the Sword of Omens and Sword of Plun-Darr. An image of the Eye of Thundera shows it as a raw, uncarved gem, so it's highly likely that these stones are implanted into weapons to give them magical properties.

** Except they don't actually ''want'' his soul, and whatever it was that was testing him clearly wanted him to ''succeed'' as they keep dropping hints on how to win. The whole "sacrifice your soul" thing was just another part of the test. They just wanted to see if he was willing to go that far or would even think of that option.

Why would the producers make sure we know that having a tail marks a cat as the lowest cast of their society? Because they plan on having the king fall for a charming commoner for maximum drama and to reinforce his beliefs that everyone is equal.

[[WMG: Tygra is from the slums, like the Thunderkittens, and once had a tail, but docked it after his adoption by Claudus.]]
Much of his bravado is a front he puts up in order to overcome his station. He used to have a tail, however once he was adopted into the royal family he had it removed. This could explain why Tygra was prepared to allow Wilykit and Wilykat to join their group. Despite his FantasticRacism towards the Beast-Men, he sees the Thunderkittens as a reminder of who he once was and will become a [[CoolBigSis Cool Big Bro]] to them in a way he wasn't to Lion-O, sparking some jealousy.

To try to keep the psychic gifts of Sight Beyond Sight, the royals only married into their own families, thus causing later genetic problems in the line of kings. It could also be why everyone was resigned to Lion-O being a CloudCuckooLander by Thundercat standards.

Whatever it was that was testing Lion-O mentioned during the first trial that it was only appearing to be Kit and Kat. We know there are multiple of them, and the Ancient Spirits of Evil are likely responsible for Mumm-ra's immortality. If they can keep one character from dying, they might be able to bring another character back to life. It would also help to explain why they wanted his soul during the second part.

* Alternate theory, Mumm-Ra’s origins are set on the ancient planet ''Plun-Darr''. He was once a young [[spoiler:humanoid bat]] called Wahankh (like in the comics), the young son of the ruler of the planet Plun-Darr. Wahankh failed to receive any recognition from his father, so Wahankh tries to impress his father by gaining magical power. To achieve his goal, he invokes the Ancient Spirits for help. Once they showed up, he requested a small part of their power. In exchange, he would be their humble servant. The Ancient Spirits agreed to help him and Wahankh was infused with evil powers, becoming the immortal/undead sorcerer we all know and love, and dooming his home planet in the process.



The mechanism to enter the pyramid, as well as many of the interior designs, including the inside of Mumm-Ra's sarcophagus, look like SufficientlyAdvancedTechnology. It's possible the pyramid is actually the tip of the iceberg, being part of a buried spacecraft that would have first ferried people to Third Earth. He may be kept alive by some sort of nanotechnology, which may well be the source of ALL magic on Third Earth. Up to and including the Sword of Omens and the as of yet unseen Book of Omens.
