BraveStarr was the last cartoon produced by Filmation, running from 1987 to 1988 with 65 episodes and one feature film. Basically a western set in outer space, the show featured humans, aliens and large assortment of uplifted animal species. Marshal BraveStarr was the show's titular hero, but for my money the coolest character was his partner 30/30.
A member of race of uplifted horse people, 30/30 not only provided backup, by switching to quadroped mode he also provided transportation, allowing BraveStarr to ride him like a conventional horse. Strong, quick tempered and ready to shot at almost anything, 30/30 was much more interesting to watch than the straight shooting marshal. Too bad the one toy they made of the character looked nothing like him.
