Ghost in the Shell Major and her team from the show, along with some tachis, throw in some high tech bad guys and this series would rock

Pulp Heroes all those characters that wouldn't get their own line. Doc Savage, the Phantom, the Shadow, the Rocketeer, the Lone Ranger, and Tonto... really tons of lesser known s too like the Tarantula. Throw in gangsters and pirates and what not for them to beat on, and easily sold line.

80's action stars Magnum and Higgins, Spencer and Hawk, the A team, Macgyver, couple them with generic baddies and you are good to go.

a few animes:

Starblazers/ Space Battleship Yamato.


We'd need the main characters, a bridge playset, a Black Tiger or Cosmo Fighter, as well as Wildstar's cosmo Zero.

Robotech:

The ones in the 80's were crap compared to Joes. tmes (and sculpting techniques) have changed, Give us accurate sculpts, Cyclones, Veritechs, and a Hovertank that can transform in ALL THREE MODES!

The Black Hole
I have the V.I.N.C.I.E.N.T. figure from the old series, I still want Old B.O.B. and a Maximilian with articulated hands/ spinners.

I agree with 3 3/4 civilians. BRING BACK THE FISHER PRICE ADVENTURE PEOPLE WITH FULL ARTICULATION!

Ditto that. Impressive looking cast too.

The Chuck Norris "Braddock" films would've been possibly cool to get a toyline of, along with delta force & invasion USA...then again, that might be too much sculpted awesome and the world would implode in a black hole that would put the Hadron Collider to shame.

Also the obvious Venture Bros. (REALLY why hasn't there been a line for it yet?)

and maybe some "tribute to 90's sitcoms" with stuff like Married With Children, Full House, Family Matters & Parker Lewis Can't Lose figures. Just think of the diorama "fun" to be had :shifty:

So many awesome Ideas already. Love the Blade idea, and Mask and well they all would be awesome.

I miss my Defiant from star trek deep space nine. One with space to put figures in, just gets me tingly.

Zombieland figures, I would love these. Talahase (good grief I cannot spell) think of the awesome fig potential and the accessories would rock. Also some good zombie figs would be nice.

Zombie figs from most any movie would be nice as well, plus with a line like that you could get normal and bloodied versions of civilians (Thinking of remake of Dawn of the Dead, a Ving Rhymes (spelling murdered again) in police uni with the shotgun is mega cool to me, but there would be a great zombie and civilian line there, in my opinion.

Let's see:

-Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers
-James Bond (films, books, video games, etc)
-The Pink Panther films (Peter Sellers version, not the crappy Steve Martin one)
-M*A*S*H TV show
-Star Trek (tv shows, films, animated)
-The Phantom of the Opera (Andrew Lloyd Webber's stage production)
-Transporter
-Darkwing Duck
-Mack Bolan the Executioner
-Able Team
-Phoenix Force
-Stony Man Farm
-Birds of Prey
-Johnny English
-Amalgam Comics (Catsai, Dare the Terminator, etc)
-Ultraverse (Siren)
-Danger Girls
-Tomb Raider
-Cate Archer the Operative (No One Live Forever)
-Austin Powers (figures and vehicles)
-characters from Star Wars novels, games, West End Game RPG, current RPG, and comic books
-All my past, present , and future Star Wars/GIJOE/James Bond/other character ideas
-Simon & Simon (Rick, AJ, the truck, the Z28)
-Magnum PI (Magnum in various outfits Rick, TC, Higgins, Icepick, Lt Tanaka, the Ferrari, TC's helicopter)
-Streetfighter (continue the line)
-Mortal Kombat (continue the line)
-Kelsey Grammar in Navy uniform from 'Down Periscope'
-Tom Arnold in Navy uniform from 'McHale's Navy'
-Underworld (all three movies)
-Thunderbirds (with base, Lady Penelope's mansion, all the vehicles including FAB 1)
-Lone Ranger (could lead to a western line)
-Hot Shots! (I want my Topper Harley figures!)
-Splinter Cell
-Rumble Roses
-Stripperella
-Emergency 51! (DeSoto, Gage, Chet Kelly, Lopez, Stoker, Capt Stanley, Dixie, Dr Brackett, Dr Early, Dr Morton, Vince the Cop, plus the squad)

There is a bunch of military character from various tv shows and movies I'd love to see done as a figure line.


and although this would never fly, I'd love to see a 3-3/4 line of female adult performers/Playboy Bunnies/etc, simply for the ability to have hot Dreadnoks chicks or base bodies for other customs.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero - They can call the new stuff 3 3/4" all they want, but that doesn't make it so.

New Sgt. Rock would be cool, too.

First, the question was raised "what franchise do you wish they madeinto a 3 3/4" toy line"

You guys have picked toy lines that have already been 3 3/4" toy lines. :rotfl:
Yeah, they may suck by todays standards - but they still hold some certain nostalgia for the time! ;-)

Having said that, I would prefer figures that have never been made in a 3 3/4" pose-able / playable format:

V (The TV Show and Movies)
Quantum Leap (Options are endless for both Sam and Al figures)
Sliders
Ghostbusters : Movie figures only
Gremlins
Goonies
Back to The Future : Movie Figures only.

I *was* going to add Greatest American Hero - but they did put out a couple of items in that scale already.

All mine have been mentioned: Doctor Who, Robotech (or Macross and the other Animes it was based on) Coyboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell. Akira would be fun, too. Basically, I'd love to see more 3 3/4" 80s anime figures. I love those designs.

Wing Commander, the game, not the movie.
ESPECIALLY THE SHIPS

Beowulf, the Zemekis version.

Still waiting for Mononoke Hime figures. ANY.

The Dark Elf Trilogy - ANY.

Resident Evil : ALL. Just let me sculpt the "squiddie" heads from RE 4.

Sanctuary.

The Endless/Sandman/Vertigo line. With a side set of John Constantine and Tim Hunter.

A full line of Conan the Barbarian figures.

A Legend of the Seeker set.

An Eragon set of figures would rock the Kasbah.

Hero and House of Flying Daggers set (just for me :shifty: ).
