I think to a certain extent that some of the lines do have legs and will hit the same nostalgia buttons that most of the 80's toy lines do. I think of special interest would be properties like Ben 10, Secret Saturdays, and others who have the same serial style and more adult writing and premise. Today's children are no fools, and don't like being talked down to and will drop a "favorite" faster than a hot rock if they feel that way.

We've already seen it to a certain extent with that fluke of a property Power Rangers after the first 10 years and it's impossible popularity. It's hard to predict with any real sense of certainty, but look at trends and you can make a decent educated guess.
