Astro Nut in The Kisser Plant

One of many Terrytoons that seem to have vanished from the planet - even with 24 hour cartoon networks!

Anybody remember a cartoon named "Luno" about a little winged white toy horse that transforms onto a real one by the wish of a child?

[leo81960]

Glad you mentioned that. It rang a bell and sure enough I have ONE Luno cartoon! I recorded it from probably TBS quite a few years ago when our generation still counted. I'll post it as soon as I can.

man!!! where have you been hiding these???

[leo81960]

These are 16mm prints I've acquired from one place or another. I wish the distributors and cable networks would stop hiding them!

[terry1919]

any chance you'll post the others???

that would be nice  :-)

[leo81960]

This is the only Astro Nut I have. But have other rarities I'll be posting soon when I can squeeze in some time.

I have tapes of these somewhere in my house along with Hector Heathcoat. I gotta find them again.

Judging by the police car I would say thats a 1962 dodge polara.

i have been looking for this little character for years, i could not remember the name of the cartoon - i loved this program, brings back simple sweet memories - thankyou

It is true that 24-hour cartoon channels should manage to offer to the viewers everything (or almost) that has been made in the past, including the less popular and forgotten ones. Sometimes, an average cartoon can be more fun when you watch it for the first time, than a masterpiece you've been seeing countless of times in your life!

I remember this cartoon from the sixties along with Luno and Sydney the elephant.

That was one of my favourites when I was a kid!

ed-Thanks.

I wondered if I'd dreamt this ever existed too - so glad I've found it. I remember it well but couldn't remember the title of the cartoon - I probably watched it in the early 70s

I know what you mean . I can remember this around 1973 on TV just after or before jackanory- still trying to find Boris the Bold !

i remember this one... even though i last saw it in 1960something in black and white! thanks for preserving it. astronut is one of those things that you think you remember from childhood but has vanished so completely you wonder if you're making it up...
