DCIH - Joe Scale DC Heroes. Epic idea, lacking in articulation and sculpts and accessories. What's the point in having a sinestro or lantern without lantern batteries?

Toynami Bubblegum Crisis - Epic Idea hindered by parts forming, cost, and no box set of just the knight sabers, let alone box sets of the other 3 variations of the armors for the knight sabers. Hopefully the 2012 movie will remedy this. =/

Kamen Rider Motion Revive Series - Epic Idea, hindered by nothing in line, only in the fact it ended before they made Decade, or the rest of the blade or faiz riders, let alone kuuga and agito or ryuki. It also would have been nice to have other toku heroes, like Kikaider, Hakaider, the White Armored guy in my sig, among many others bandai has the rights to like garo. So the other drawback here is lack of diversity outside of just monster hunter, xenosaga, and Kamen rider. Epic line that fails only in the fact they haven't made that many, and can't seem to do females right.

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight - Epic Idea, hindered by little to no articulation. Even includes power up animals, but the low articulation makes it questionable to buy, especially after being spoiled by MRS.

Power Rangers Any - The Zords, while yes neat in their own right. Lack of any real articulation in this day and age is such a let down. What's the point in having a Jungle Fury Mechs that can't pose kung fu, or any of the other numerous DX's that can't even do show like poses. Thankfully this can be remedied by the candy kits from japan. Even making the badguys in scale to them finally decently. The microzords also suffer from this, at their scale they'd be perfect for badguy fight posing yet they have zero to little articulation. Just tiny bricks that combine. I want a fully articulate DragonCaeser already! Ever finding a mele figure was also impossible.

Ben 10 - Great line with their Joe sized figures, only lacking in how they are packed. They come literally 1 per case making it a pain to ever find any of the latest ones ever.

Hasbro Marvel Universe - Only real complain here is trying to find new figures. The only remedy would be for hasbro to do a subscription for the fans who are guaranteed to buy em. (hint hint)

Mattel MOTUC - The only draw back here, is lack of any in stock, let alone not at mass retail.

Mattel He-man 2k - Excellent line, beautifully sculpted, amazing accessories... But why did we need 30 he-mans when only 4 were in the show. One of which never even got a toy. Let alone the rest of the characters, or even Hordak or She-Ra. =/

Transformers Armada - Some amazing designs, hindered by brick like toys, and little to no working unhindered articulation. Oh what I wouldn't give for a Poseable Blur from this line. At least bendy prime's head has come in handy. Especially noticeable after the Best lines and RID. It was like a massive step backwards.

Toybiz X-men/X-Force lines - Great idea for this booming 90s property with one major drawback... Why does every figure need an action feature instead of just being super poseable? The features hindered play value.

Inhumanoids - Great idea, great execution, only one drawback, Joe Scale figures would have worked better in scope to the monsters. As it was, the figures were the size of the monsters legs, as opposed to just being near foot size. That made the play value awkward. Even with removable helmets, the size just couldn't justify the few features they had, and lack of articulation. They would do well for a revival though with the Joe Space Brigade like Cyber Joe. A joe line of figures that were in astronaut suits with removable helmets. Oh how I miss those.

Centurions - Great idea, awesome execution, only two drawbacks. Never could find them on shelves, and again Joe Scale would have helped reach a happy medium in play value across the lines.

SilverHawks - The non durable plastic they used lead to a multitude of breakage, and paint rubbing off. Still an amazing line, and would be vastly improved in joe scale with more articulation even at the loss of the great wing stretching action feature that made sense and enhanced play value. Even so, for the plastic grade faults, this line was one of the few to do action features right.

Storm Hawks - The lack of bikes that actually transform without being parts formers, kept me from even touching this line. And I would have eaten those bikes up if done right. Especially the violin playing bad guy one.

Godzilla - Lack of articulation for movie like poses. Otherwise great sculpts, great execution, but I'll stick to my 90s movie American G-zilla, and the classic one I got from a flea market who's in scale to him. Final Wars FTW! Will reconsider if they do a line with articulation at near inhumanoid sizes at a rate of one every few months.

IronMan 90s Toon Figures - Great execution, awesome play value and customization only 3 major draw backs. The vac metalized paint chipped off too easily, they never did an accurate Season 2 base armor ironman nor his season 2 finale armor, and they canned the HulkBuster exosuits which I'm still dying to get in their original untweaked form. =/

Rom the Space Knight - Awesome Idea, epicly executed in the marvel comics. The toy though that inspired it all? WHY! WHY! WHY! The toy itself was useless. Another figure that'd do well for a revival with modern articulation, detail, and even real play value.

That's all I can think of for now off the top of my head.
