Carolina’s defense has been its calling card in the postseason, but that hasn’t necessarily been the case through the first three games.

With Amazon MGM betting big on both Voltron and Masters of the Universe, the success of these long-dormant franchises could open the door for even more beloved properties from the 1980s and beyond to make the jump back to live action.

Here are three projects that could benefit the most. ThunderCats Of all the dormant franchises waiting in the wings, ThunderCats may be the closest to becoming a reality. Director Adam…
