Video of the Day: The halcyon days of 1980s cartoons

Recently CRACKED.com wrote on the worse Saturday morning cartoon adaptations which ranged from MC Hammer to Hulk Hogan. Its review also included a little-known cartoon on a 1980s fad- the Rubik’s Cube.

Even less known are the guardians of the titular cube as well as who sang the overly sweet theme:

“Rubik was dependent on three Hispanic children who discovered him after he fell out of an evil wizard’s stagecoach. Also boasting a theme song performed by a pre-Ricky Martin Menudo, Rubik was surprisingly Hispanic-friendly (Or maybe it wasn’t--each episode revolves around the efforts of a trio of young Hispanic thieves to keep the cube’s rightful owner from recovering his property, evil wizard or not).”

Hence, here’s the theme to the short-lived cartoon “Rubik, the Amazing Cube” (video link):
