My 80s Cartoon Villain Hall Of Fame

[Toku King]

This is no list. I'm going to put up all of the 80s cartoon villains that I believe deserve to be in the 80s Cartoon Villain Hall Of Fame.
Suggestions are fine. Just don't officially add anyone.

Megatron
http://graysmatter.codivation.com/content/binary/megatron.jpg
Notorious leader of the Decepticons, Megatron was one of the most evil, cunning, and powerful villains in an 80s cartoon. Representing all that is evil, Megatron would shoot his enemies on screen, many dying. Also, his vicious battles with Optimus Prime are legendary.
This guy is so bad that he is the main villain in the new movie "Transformers", taking his rightful place as Optimus Prime's greatest enemy.

[Alex]

Cobra Commander please.

[founder81]

Toku King you need a new picture.

[drwho]

Gargamel from the smurfs, skeletor, Hordak, claw from inspector gadget, mumra

[brundlefly]

Cobra Commander please.

Totally agreed; I'd also suggest Destro and the Baroness in order to give us an "Axis of Evil" from the 80s GI JOE cartoon.

[Thorlief]

I'd say Raoh from Fist of the North Star. His brother Kaio is more evil, but Raoh is definitely the best

[Chiasm]

Scrappy Doo.

[Chiasm]

Toku King you need a new picture.

LMAO at what happens when you hijack pics from other sites and the host decides to screw with you to get even.

[founder81]

claw from inspector gadget,

I never would have thought of him. but does he really count? He gotten beaten by a 8? year old girl again and again. Even Cobra Commander wasn't that inept.

[Scott Evil]

80's Villains? None other then the Rowdy one!

http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u28/Scott-Evil/Piper.jpg

Ohh.. 'CARTOON', hehehe - my bad.. well, he acted 'cartoon-y' more often then not. Anyways- my actual entry and source of many a nightmares..

MUMM-RA!
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u28/Scott-Evil/mummra.jpg

The dude had a unique look, he was strong, he was a sorcerer, and he had a pyramid. Seriously pwned my childhood, yo..

[drwho]

These are just recommendations

Monstar from Silverhawks who was practically a mummraa clone and transformed to his super powered form every episode to get a beat down.

Mother Brain from Captain N

Unicron from Transformers

Toku King you need a new picture.

I don't understand.

[founder81]

Rowdy Piper was a cartoon villian. There was a wreslter cartoon with all the guys at the time. I can't find any pictures though.

[founder81]

I don't understand.

Whatever site you're link too keeps putting up very unappropriate pics for this topic.

edit

Never mind. Dear god in Heaven its Megatron. My eyes thank you.

[Toku King]

Cobra Commander
http://www.catskillcomics.com/davidbeck/CobraCommander2.JPG
Cunning, evil, and one heck of a public speaker, Cobra Commander was pretty much as bad as a normal person could be. While not the smartest bulb technology wise, he's pretty good at getting things to go his way.
Almost ruled the world five times(even got a country once), this guy's very underrated.

[Toku King]

All I saw was the pic of Megatron.

[Scott Evil]

All I saw was the pic of Megatron.

And all we saw was... never mind- it took me too long to forget it just for me to remind me what it was.. GAH!

Lesson learned peeps- NOBODY GETS AWAY W/ STEALING PICS! :D

[Toku King]

Shredder
http://members.fortunecity.com/zobovor/shredder_lego_cartoon.gif
Oh, come on! This guy was the shiz! He made the TMNT Turtle soup whenever he fought. He even made Kraine think twice before messing with him! Skilled, evil, and cunning, this guy was the way bad guys should be. Well, besides the stupid henchmen.

[drwho]

More suggestions
Shredder and Krang from TMNT,

Purple pie man from Strawberry Shortcake

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c7/PdSTSSC0008.jpg

[mgs]

as iconic cobra commander was/is. wasn't serpentor the only one who actually killed anyone? if so, he trumps cc.

[dougputhoff]

Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker.

Bobby Heenan.

The thirteen ghosts of Scooby Doo.

Gargamel.

[brundlefly]

Who did Serpentor kill? I remember him wounding Duke in that awful movie that introduced Cobra-La, but since Duke lived it doesn't count as a kill.

[mgs]

hmm....I thought he killed someone, don't know who though. maybe it was an unknown cobra soldier when he first came alive?? sorry, i admit, not really sure.

[Nyssane]

Serpentor was trash, anyway. Even though Cobra Commander was a bit lame, that's why we loved him. I think killing innocent people would make him less cutsy wootsy.

Anyway, I nominate...

King Koopa, from the Super Mario Bros. Super Show.
Magica DeSpell, from Ducktales (there needs to be some female energy in the Hall of Fame)
Skeletor's a given.
And lastly, Red Herring from A Pup Named Scooby Doo. 'Cuz he was awesome.

[lalalei2001]

I suggest Tirek from the first My Little Pony TV Special.

[Toku King]

It's been a while, but I've decided to continue this thread.
Oh, and NO ONE CAN PUT VILLAINS ON HERE BUT ME PLEASE.

Starscream
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/85/Starscream.jpg

If there is any villain that made his impression in the 1980s, it's Starscream. This treacherous Decepticon looked for any chance he got to overthrow his leader Megatron, and has succeeded numerous times. From going toe to toe with Optimus Prime to creating the terrifying Bruticus, Starscream deserves as much credit as his master Megatron.

[Toku King]

King Zarkon
http://www.cheezey.org/voltron/pics/zarkon/imposingzarkon.jpg

One of the most vile and bloodthirsty villains of 80s television, Zarkon was the dangerous archenemy of Voltron, defender of the universe. Taking the universe by storm, Zarkon and his forces created hell across the cosmos, and were willing to do anything to take over. Unleashing legions of powerful Robeasts and jet fighters to planets far and wide, Zarkon was one hell of an opponent, and could only be stopped by the likes of Voltron.

[Toku King]

Skeletor
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/8a/Skeletor-spoo.jpg

Skeletor is an essence of what makes a villain a villain. Evil, merciless, violent, powerful, and terrifying. And when I mean terrifying, look at his head! Who wouldn't piss themselves seeing that? But yeah, Skeletor was one of the most popular villains in 80s cartoons, and still is. You just don't get any meaner than a pissed off sorceror with a skull for a head.
But let's not mention him saving children at Christmas, shall we?

[Toku King]

Krang
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7c/Krang.gif

For as bad as Shredder was, he was merely a pawn in a larger game. The pieces were moved by none other than Dimension X's Krang, a disgusting brain monster that was essentially the main threat of the Ninja Turtles. From his disturbing looks to his odd yet appealing voice, Krang is a prime example of what made the show so unique.

[Toku King]

Gargamel
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/da/Gargamel_and_Azrael_from_the_Smurfs.jpg

Poor Smurfs. While all the other cute cartoons of the 80s had incompetent and merely bullying enemies, Gargamel was straight up nasty. We actually aren't sure what he wanted to do with the Smurfs, though. First he wanted to eat them, and then turn them into gold. But while his intentions are mashed, whatever he was going to do would essentially kill the Smurfs, which is obviously evil.

[Toku King]

Nemesis
*No Picture Found*

While Gargamel was the main enemy to the Smurfs, Nemesis was much more dangerous. Far more powerful, vicious, and cunning than the petty sorcerer, Nemesis tried to steal the essence of good itself, and nearly succeeded. Even Gargamel tried to stop him! It's badguys like this that make you think "Well, it could be worse".

Got ego?

[Toku King]

Wow. It's ego to want to keep the thread organized?

[jessecuster3]

Wow. It's ego to want to keep the thread organized?

Are you saying you did want other people to post entries as well? Oh no, wait, you said only you can post pictures and summaries.

[Toku King]

Are you saying you did want other people to post entries as well? Oh no, wait, you said only you can post pictures and summaries.

Yes, because it's MY list. People can give me possible hall-of-famers if they like, but most of the picks done by people here tend to not deserve that much credit(look at earlier in the thread), and many don't even follow the rules(80s CARTOON villains).

So I'd appreciate if you stopped being so darn rude and just leave the thread if you're so miffed.

[ForeverTaskmaster]

Real good cartoon villains were:

Megatron
Starscream
Cobra Commander
Skeletor
Miles Mayhem


As for Starscream and Cobro Commander, R.I.P. Chris Latta. He really breathed live into those 2 characters.

[hoffmandu]

AND THE NUMERO UNO BADDEST OF ALL THE BADDIES OF 80'S CARTOONS IIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS





DESTRO!


thanks for playing everyone, see ya next time. End thread.

[jessecuster3]

This list is MINE NOW!

end thread.

Yeah except you are wrong, the #1 villain should be Snidely Whiplash.

[Justin D.]

Yes, because it's MY list.

This thread is open to anyone and everyone who visits this board, like all other threads. If people want to comment on it and make their own suggestions, that's fine. If it dies on its own, that's also fine. Do not continuously bump your own thread if no one else is taking part in it.

I'm not bumping. I added another hall-of-famer. And they can add SUGGESTIONS. Trying to make them official is different.

Well, unfortuneatly a decision has been passed down from corporate, and DESTRO has offically been declared the winner.

[Agent Helix]

That's right! Nobody interfere with this VERY OFFICIAL IMAGINARY LIST OF CHARACTERS FROM CARTOONS! You got that?!

[jessecuster3]

Good choice! I almost forgot about him.

[jessecuster3]

Don't forget also:

[Toku King]

Destro
http://joeguide.com/pm/cels/images/destro01-large.jpg

In GI Joe, we had Cobra Commander, Serpentor, and even Cobra-La. But there are certain characters that made the teams memorable. One of these was the mysterious and business based Destro. This metal clad salesman looked and sounded just like a big time badguy, but with a different purpose. But whatever that purpose is(in this case money), Destro's hardcore ttitude and slew of badass moments make him perfect for this list.

[Toku King]

Don't forget also:

That was the 60s.

They're coming up. I can only do a few things at a time.

[Matt K]

#1 Dark Heart (Fear the jogging Suit)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fa/Dark_heart_human.jpg

#2 No Heart (The eyebrows that destroyed the world)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6f/No_Heart.PNG

[Toku King]

EDIT: Nevermind, I looked him up.

[tangentman]

You can't mention G.I. Joe villains without honors to Zartan, Storm Shadow, and the Baroness. :)

What about Venger, from Dungeons & Dragons? Surely a classic 80's toon villain if one ever existed!

[marshal99]

Mon-star from Silverhawks
http://theflashsite.net/silverhawks/shmonstar2.jpg

Darkstorm from Visionaries (although in truth , the villain of the show should be the wizard Merklynn who both the good guys and bad had team-up against before)
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/45/Darkstorm.JPG/130px-Darkstorm.JPG

[Toku King]

Mumm-Ra
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/15/Thundercats2.jpg
If Skeletor is the perfect example of a villain, then Mumm-Ra is an overachiever. If there was any foul, zombie like enemy that deserves credit, it's this guy. From the ever popular transformation sequence to actually raiding the Thundercats hideout, Mumm-Ra was the ultimate threat to one of the 80's best superhero teams.

[ForeverTaskmaster]

Destro was cool because he was boning the Baroness.

[sun tzu]

#1 Dark Heart (Fear the jogging Suit)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fa/Dark_heart_human.jpg

#2 No Heart (The eyebrows that destroyed the world)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6f/No_Heart.PNG

Dark Heart, sure. Guy had charisma, and enough intelligence to have backup plans and set functional traps for the heroes.
No Heart, though? Aside from looking menacing, I don't remember him ever accomplishing much.

[Toku King]

Unicron
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6a/Unicron_DKUG.jpg
"I am Unicron." This planet sized, merciless, amazingly voiced Transformer is easily one of the single most intimidating opponents from the 80s. Megatron had many close attempts to conquering earth and Cybertron over two to three years, while Unicron had one shot at destroying both worlds, and came closer than Megatron or any other Transformers villain ever did.

[Kirayoshi]

May I make a nomination?

Samhain from The Real Ghostbusters, the Living Spirit of Halloween. Cool concept, expertly handled. The RGB didn't have many recurring villains(although the Staypuft Marshmallow Man appeared once or twice), but Samhain was memorable. I also enjoyed the Headless Biker(a modern day Horseman who terrorized the descendants of Ichabod Crane), and the Night Game ep(where the forces of good and evil played baseball, with the stakes being a human soul).

[TShark82]

Alot of good choices, Mer Man from MOTU was a favourite of mine.

41408

[Damiean Dark]

The Horned king from the movie the black cauldron was scary as hell back in the day.

[Damiean Dark]

And the Shredder from TMNT was a badass guy i loved it when he occasionaly resorted to fisticuffs and beat the collective turtles Raph, Leo. Mike and Don's Asses all at once.

Pity the show got more and more kiddy friendly as it continued the old Leo throwing a sword at a washing line to ensnare foot soldiers bit wore thin fast.:frown:
