That Is A New Direction

Apparently there was once going to be a cartoon show called X-Men. Oh wait there was and it was awesome. But you wouldn’t know it by watching these clips from a failed TV pilot from 1989 for a show called X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men:

Now the animation is rather high quality (Toei Animation did it and they were responsible for Transformers too) and it did eventually lead to Konami developing the awesome arcade game that everyone wishes would finally be released on Xbox Live. (Really people you’re sitting on a cash cow what is the hold up???) Obviously though the biggest problem is the Australian Wolverine that they have. Whats that aboot eh?
