if you could, what franchise would you turn into a 3 3/4 toy line?

a few of mine:

James Bond 007: (This one is long overdue)

They made figures of Captain Power, but never made figures of PHOTON or LAZER TAG, dispite they both having shows about the same time.

The Matrix : (Tell me figures of Neo, Morpheus, Trinity, Nyrobi, Agent Smith, and the Albino twins wouldnt rock?)

Cowboy Bebop

Command and Conquer. Either the Tiberium games or the Red Alert series.

Eagle Force and M.A.S.K. and they would be pretty easy to make with avaiable 25th Joe parts.

Yeah, I would buy M.A.S.K. but I wonder how big the vehicles would get?

Can I say DC Universe? I know they have them already, but those toys are an insult to kids, collectors, and action figures in general. How can they put out figures with 70s production values in 2010????? :-(

I was going to say those too, but I thought that the chances of us getting decent DC figures are about as likly as us getting MASK or Eagle Force. :-/

...aside from a lack of ball jointed hips, I'm not seeing the problem with the DC Infinite Heroes line...

Brave and the Bold and JLU, though, AWFUL. But even then they feel more like 90s toys, retaining the same level of articulation as Kenner's old Batman toys. In the 70s there was more articulation, ie Mego.

MASK would be awesome. I'd buy the hell out it at this scale.

Battle Star Galactica with ships. Both new and old series done with the full range of articulation.

5th Element. I'm still surprised their aren't toys of this movie.

The full Star Trek universe.

1. The Legion of Super-Heroes with 25th/ROC construction, all 50 or so of them.
2. Red Dwarf
3. Flash Gordon, the 1980 movie style
3. The Six Million Dollar Man/Bionic Woman
4. T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents
5. DNAgents
6. Elementals

BSG: TOS
Doctor Who
Quake 2 and 4
DOOM 3
Wolfenstein
Tron (need modern figures)
The Last Starfighter

I'd also like to add Star Wars and Indiana Jones with modern hips! Just a few degrees of lateral hip movement would go a long way in making those figures easier to pose. Friggin' Chewie looks like he's doing the pee pee dance....

:rotfl:

An insult to kids?! Just because something has more joints doesn't make it a better toy, and they are just toys. Really if you find it such an insult, you aren't getting mad about the right things.

EDIT: I'd add my choices, but most folks here have already nailed it. Bond, MASK, etc, etc.

You know what, this thread isn't a bad idea...did you know that you can purchase a limited license to make action figures in China? If I has the cash and a Chinese factory..I would be busting these out

Much as I dislike the new Battlestar Galactica, I'd love a Grace Park figure. :-P
