If they made one now I'd still want it. ^^
Also, this cartoon *STILL* remains in the subconscious of our culture-- I always see Dungeon Master costumes sold around Halloween, even this year I saw it for sale.

Ah, Tiamat! She of the campaign-long plan to escape Hell and return to the material plane, only to be stopped by a Banishment spell ten seconds later.
The DM still hasn't forgiven us.

Tiamat, whose plan to escape Hell was foiled when the party bribed a bunch of dragon children too small to take part in the mass battle to accompany them into the secret caves to help disrupt the ritual.
The cultists were not prepared.

Just hit me... If this WAS an MLP episode, Fluttershy would make Tiamat the animal companion!
That was a guest strip here some years ago. Ending with the line that her cutie mark represented the ashes of those ponies who had annoyed her.
Red: "If you agree to be my slaves, I might consider spar-"
Black: "Kill 'em! Kill 'em all!"
White: "Hmph."
Green: *tries to pick their pockets*
etc
"Director? Ms. Tiamet is holding on Lines 2, 3, 5, 8, and 11."
Kudos if you get the reference.

And now I'm wondering how the Mane 6 would handle the unicorn-centric episode with Kelek (the one where he's trying to steal unicorn horns and the group has to team up with Venger to stop him).
And here we have the longest running impact of the D&D cartoon: It changed what Tiamat looked like.
Before the cartoon, she was described as having a striped body as the colours from her heads blended with each other until they became brown for her tail. That's not exactly easy to do with hand-painted cels so they made her body red and the change stuck.

Guest Author's Note: "So, I'm not basing this comic on any particular version of D&D, because...well, the show didn't exactly do that either. Instead, I'm trying to get the vibe more of both the show Dungeons and Dragons itself, and of what we saw in the episode, Dungeons and Discords for Ogres and Oubliettes. And from what I saw in that episode, O&O has a lot of random tables, with a wild array of results.
Which, honestly, makes Tiamat showing up for a bunch of newbie adventurers make waaaay more sense.
(As an aside, for all the goofiness of the cartoon, this is honestly still a really cool and scary version of Tiamat.)"
