How about an adventure team geared towards younger kids with toys similar to the fisher price imaginext line.

Reboot from what point in time? ARAH, Six sigma, spy troops, valor vs venom, resolute, renagades, ROC? A reboot would be fine, but all the others failed because the figures were not ready for the release of the cartoon release. Or the cartoon was only storyline for a movie special or just season or two. They could let the reboot feed off the comic books, but the problem is kids don't read comics like they use too, now they are doing good just to watch tv due to all the game systems and online movie & tv networks.

To me a reboot would have no association to ARAH characters at all. Maybe a whole new set of characters in the adventure team type world with accompanying cartoon. Again, I'm looking at this as a toy line for little kids, not 40 year old adults.

The kind of sort of a reboot but not really a reboot that seems to happen so often in entertainment. But I agree a big problem is going to be getting kids attention and then keeping kids attention. Sort of like how the first live action Transformers movie caused toys to fly off the shelves but now stores have to clearance off Transformers movie toys because kids lost interest. |

I could go for an Adventure Team line geared towards kids, especially if they had some good supporting media.

I wouldn't want a new Adventure Team line to be too little kiddie.
Maybe somewhere between Imaginex and Pursuit of Cobra. Something kids of all ages could get behind, but adult collectors not married to ARAH as well. The Adventure Team stuff released at the end of Sigma 6, especially the unreleased items, were really cool. |

Definitely agree; the world already has Rescue Heroes. Something aimed at the same age group that the original 12" line and ARAH was made for; that way collectors could get in on the action also. Maybe they could have a 4" line which is conducive to vehicles as well as a supporting 12" line. My boys, age 7 and 10, both love the 12" Adventure Team set that I got them from JoeCon a couple of years ago. They play with them to this day, if they weren't so insanely expensive I would buy them more.

I wouldn't mind seeing 4" Adventure Team boxed sets where each set is an "Adventure in a Box"!!!
Each adventure could feature a themed adventurer, a Cobra working against them, and some kind of adventure piece, like a crashed plane or a Yeti. They could sell extra adventurers and Cobras seperately as well as vehicles and extra adventure gear. |

That would be great! They could even re-purpose many of the 25th figure parts and vehicles by removing or scaling back the weapons and making them in Adventure Team yellow; the AWE striker or VAMP would make for good off-road vehicles and the Eaglehawk would make for a good heavy lift helicopter. Better yet, some of the vintage ARAH vehicles could be repurposed. The WHALE in white with the Adventure Team logo would be pretty sweet for the Sea Adventurer. Also, if things really took off (no pun intended), the Defiant/Crusader may be a good fit for the line.
