Cartoon Action Hour (or CAH as we like to abbreviate it) is a roleplaying game dedicated to the action cartoons of the 1980s. From Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man, and Thundarr to MASK, Bravestarr, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and a whole lot in between, Cartoon Action Hour allows you to recreate your favorite cartoons and play in their world. With Cartoon Action Hour's powerful yet flexible system you can even create your own characters and shows in the vein of the '80s action cartoons. From the pilot episode to the after-message segment to the movie, you can run any type of '80s action cartoon.
from the Z-Man CAH page.
Anyone played this? It was put out by Z-man games and allows players to create and play in their own 80's cartoon themed series. They brought out two hardcopy supplements; Darkness Unleashed ( A GI Joe-like group that fights off the undead.) & Metal Wars (is a Transformers-like series.) Also the main book has a Heroes of Iconia section in the back allowing for a He-man type game. I have never been able to get a group together to play this but had worked on a Thundercats campaign that took place after the cartoon series called Children of Thundera.

There is work currently being done on a second edition that will streamline the rules a bit more. But unsure when that version is to make its way out into stores. I know I will pick it up but until then might see if I can get a game of it off the ground. Anyone else play or run this game?
