I was totally gonna say Z-Bots! Without a doubt, nothing else comes close. Such creativity, I love that toyline.

I also enjoyed Air Raiders as a kid, so I would go with those.







I like the smaller toys that let you build armies. M.U.S.C.L.E., Army Ants, Monster In My Pocket, etc.

I'd pick one of these 4.

Inhumanoids - using GI Joe 25th, RoC, PoC, and Retaliation figures for a large filler basis. Monsters would have more variety too. I'd also use this as an establishment point and expand to cross hasbro universes and unite them. In this case Renegades and a Transformers universe of some kind. I've gone on more about how I'd do this, and how I'd want to balance classic in the history before alongisde how I'd streamline the designs for the future too. So it could usher in new stories while still holding true to the past.

Centurions - Same as above and joe scale. But instead of Earthcorps, this would pretty much be skycorps. Again would stream line the designs in joe scale, and would balance it to still fit within the confines of the joined universe. Probably would even make this the after earthcorps tech and threat evolution, or even a side unit to GI Joe's subcontractors like Earthcorp, and so on. Pretty much I'd do this as a Prequel point to what the series became. How the tech was developed, how it evolved, and how the transporter and sky station came to be alongside the bad guy.

Exo-Squad/Robotech
I'd want to relaunch the toys at least, or new interpretations of their designs, but this time done in Megablok and compatible with Halo megabloks. This way the E-Frames, Jump Frames, Mechs, and other ships can also bolster the Halo armadas and vice versa.
I'd kill to have E-Frames MB spartans could use. Invid Shock Troopers and scouts would just be icing on the cake.

Bots Master
The concept was very 80s meets the future. It could really work now. Keep the spirit the same, but update the designs of everyone as needed. I'd also focus more on getting the expanded out and better transforming bad guys.
So stuff like twig and the car, and let them combine too into a robot for the toy. That always pissed me off on the original. Also done entirely in Joe scale of course.

ToyBiz Marvel Legends. Mandatory $12 price point.

LAY OFF the multiple Iron Man variants. If you HAVE to have an Iron Man variant, it better be War Machine. More balance with hero to villain ratios.

Uniform hands. If you need different hands, make interchangeable ones.

Finally, I'd make them resculpt a pair of clenched fists for my Genis-Vell figure.

^^ I had a lot of fun with my Sigma Six Snake Eyes back in the day.

I'd love some MU/Joe style Spawn figures with the bigger characters like Violator and Tremor in a 5" or 6" scale with the same style of articulation. Does that count?

It really was the best. I have so many fond memories of Z-Bots. They really started the tiny robot craze for me. I still have pretty much all of the first series and almost all of series 2 and 3. I think I have every Mini-Z too.

Also gotta give it to Mighty Max also, too lazy to look at who suggested it, but kudos to you. Another formative toy line of my childhood.

Amen Brother!! Enigma 2K2, I too would like Toybiz ML back.
For myself, I'd like them to give Wolverine, Spiderman, Punisher, Hulk , jean grey/Phoenix a rest from reproduction too. Bring on some classic versions of some of the other teams; Squadron Sinister/Supreme, The Imperial Guard, The Inhumans, The guardians of the Galaxy(Yondu, Vance, Charlie 27, Nikki, Martinex), the Eternals; at least Ikaris, Ajax and maybe Sersi.
How about some new villains? Ulik the troll, The Bi Beast, The Magus(with grey afro!), Tiger Shark, Orka, Man-Bull( before he mutated further), Cobra and Mr.Hyde to name a few.

It always bothered me when I was a kid that all these toy lines were never in the right scale, or bent at the knees, and not close to the cartoon. Silverhawks were perfect as was MASK.
