Ruff and Reddy - Hanna Barbera's first cartoon as a company.

After the MGM animation studio shut down where they were doing the Tom and Jerry cartoons, this was the first cartoon they did for TV, done in color instead of b/w since they saw that was the way future TV was going.

It set the pattern for future shows in style and with "limited" animation and closeups, much cheaper than doing it the way they had done for a movie screen.

Ruff and Reddy were a friendly dog and cat team that had various adventures together. Each adventure was a cliffhanger with thirteen shorter than normal episodes, and had a narrator.

The first adventure has them kidnapped from their home by a flying saucer and taken by robots to the planet "Mini-Mula" (aluminum spelled backwards). The Diorama shows a scene of Ruff and Reddy with the robots on the flying saucer.

Ruff and Reddy from a previous import. The robot model and skin created by Cranlox.

Uploaded to the dioramas folder.

Princesa Frutal

(There was a strongman hero on some plastic cups from the 90s, but I haven't found him yet).

Based on some local figurines, you could say they're almost original. I'm also working on Zucoa's dog (the hot chocolate, a pet animal like Tony the Tiger).

There are many characters that Chronos (time) ate. Tin & Tina from the Sunday magazine Viva, published by the Clarín newspaper, had a section called "The Paper Plaza," which included the adventures of two adventurous mice, the couple Tin & Tina. When they stopped publishing, another comic strip, "Leo the Pizza Boy," began, which was practically the same as Fry from Futurama, but in an Argentinian version, and set about 15 years before Futurama appeared. I'll be drawing the wrestler Trini Savage, the Jaguar Girl, also an Argentinian wrestler. Her character was a millionaire from Miami with a jaguar as a pet.

And I'll be drawing my last favorite Argentinian wrestler, Sir Peter Lawrence, the brave medieval knight from 100% Lucha. In his first appearances, he entered the ring on horseback with a shield and sword—it was epic! Later, due to budget constraints, he only used the shield and sword, losing the horse. Finally, Sir Peter Lawrence's original costume was lost or stolen.

The character couldn't be continued because, although several attempts were made, the masks never turned out exactly the same, something even the wrestler who made them doesn't understand. There was also, back in the 60s, the first local wrestling program called Titanes en el Ring (Titans in the Ring). I'd like to draw several characters from that cult program throughout Latin America, but I definitely prioritize... to the later wrestling matches, which are the ones I watched as a child.

Another character who was lost along with his entire group, in Argentina there was an official licensed production of MOTU toys, quite acceptable and different in some aspects. Years later, many, more than a decade, those molds were bought by TopToys and reused in a new production line with a new story. They created a group of heroes by reusing and repainting the MOTU molds. These never became mass-produced and today constitute a true collector's rarity; they seem like an alternate MOTU world. Fisto was one of the trio of heroes in this "new"—if you can call it that—line of characters. The character they created was Titano, a Greek man with a discus and a staff (like the one from Man-Gun, and a very similar or slightly modified chest plate).

They called this character and two others "T-Force" and made tiny comic booklets that they distributed in toy stores and some other Top Toys outlets. They didn't have actual comics, just folded sheets with a few panels telling their story. The only one I bought was Titano, who was kind of like a mix of Raphael and Donatello from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; he was the tough guy and also the techie of the trio. The main green-haired one was a He-Man painted in the style of Doc Samson from Marvel, and there was one other character I don't remember.

Not familiar with the chicas. Comics? Cartoon? wrestlers?
