The Copy Cats

The Copy Cats are Kool Kitty, She-Lion and Fat Cat. They work for Master Blaster, and basically try to make life miserable for Kidd Video. However, they are really too incompetent to do any real damage. They are scared to death of Master Blaster, but have absolutely no respect for him. Major cowards. They don't stand up for themselves... they've even asked Kidd Video for help now and then. They could be said to embody vanity (She-Lion), gluttony (Fat Cat), and sloth (Kool Kitty)... but maybe that's overanalyzing.



The Copy Cats

Susan Silo as She-Lion

She-Lion is the tallest of the Copy Cats and sometimes seems to be the leader. She is also very vain, constantly whining that she needs to do her nails. She wears a yellow unitard with a hot pink jacket... and is the only Copy Cat that wears shoes.

Susan Silo has lent her charismatic voice to many animated series including Pac-Man (1982) as Sue; Starchaser: The Legend of Orin (1985); Nara in Robotix: The Movie (1985); Sandra Shore in InHumanoids and InHumanoids: The Movie (1986); The Jetsons: The Movie (1990); Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990); Darkwing Duck (1991); Where's Waldo? (1991); The Toxic Crusaders (1991); Bebe's Kids (1992); Once Upon a Forest (1993); as Dr. Karbunkle on Biker Mice from Mars (1993); The Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat (1995); as Jungle Janet on The Tick (1995); Extreme Ghostbusters (1997); as Scat in Babes in Toyland (1997); and as Polly on Channel Umptee-3 (1997). Her voice has also appeared on two Gabriel Knight video games.

In the 1950s and 60s she made many guest appearances on TV shows including Alfred Hitchcock Presents, McHale's Navy, Bonanza, The Wild Wild West, Gunsmoke, Batman, My Three Sons and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. She recently appeared on screen as Mrs. Beidekker in the movie Kiss Toledo Goodbye (1999).

Marshall Efron as Fat Cat

Fat Cat, true to his name, is stereotypically obsessed with food. He is always bringing along a sandwich or something to eat. He is also arguably the most cowardly Copy Cat, always pandering to or pleading with The Master Blaster. He always makes up new 'titles' to address Master Blaster...such as, "Your Most Un-Holy Slave-Driver-Ness" or "We'll get skinned alive by His Taxidermy-Ness." Fat Cat wears a Sgt. Pepper-esque jacket.

Marshall Efron, born in 1938, is a longtime comedian who has appeared frequently in movies and television as well as as a voice actor. He has appeared this year in as Andres in A Piece of Eden and as Tiny in Two Family House. He also appeared in The Road to Wellville (1994).

His voice credits in animated series include Ratso on Kwicky Koala and Dirty Dawg (1981), Sloppy on The Smurfs (1981), Trollkins (1981), Twice Upon a Time (1983), The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo (1985), The Biskitts, and Fluppy Dogs (1986).

Fat Cat

Robert Towers as Kool Kitty

Kool Kitty never gets too excited about anything, except when all three Copy Cats are running from the Master Blaster's punishments. He is also the laziest, always encouraging his partners to rest or nap. Kool Kitty is never without his sunglasses (are there eyes under there?), and he wears a red jacket with a very '80s 'skinny' tie.

Robert Towers only has one other known voice credit in animation, but it's interesting: he was the voice of Snoopy in the animated version of the musical "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" (1985). Other than that, Robert Towers has appeared in the movies Masters of the Universe (!) (1987), Stewardess School (1987), Hot to Trot (1988), Let It Ride (1989), Switch (1991), and Summertime Switch (1994).
