GI Joe and Micronauts as O-Rings make sense given their history.
I think Super7 needs to make some bank on those two before considering cutting the nostalgia cord and moving into uncharted waters. |

Same, never really experienced MASK as a kid, so it'd be cool to get an introduction to the franchise in my favorite form-factor... Although, it'd feel odd w/o vehicles to most, I suppose.

It's true that the vehicles were important but each character's mask served a purpose as a tool or weapon, so if VENOM was included - as some lore suggests they broke off from Cobra - then it could still make sense. Cover Girl doesn't come with the Wolverine either - I know, not the same thing.

I have no interest in Micronauts.
More comic accurate Joes, heck yes (so far, most are cartoon) I would welcome with open arms: Predator, MOTU, Commando, Demolition Man, Die Hard, 5th Element |

I don't have space for vehicles anymore.
Seems like third party mask stuff is either in original scale or 1:12 garbage. I want a 3.75 general mayhem so bad. |

Yeah, I'm out of space for them as well, the Ecto-1 was the last.

Loyal Suspects has the MASK license, whatever they want to do with it.
I do want some 6" figures that isn't saying other sizes are not beneficial too - 1/60th would be lots of fun too. Raman's 1-1 size stuff is nice enough if a bit expensive. I just think the characters are enough of a focus in their own right to deserve figures of their own. They actually spent most episodes out of their vehicles for at least 50% of the show usually (at least until the racing eps anyway). As for the Super 7 Micronauts there is some appeal there to get what would normally be much taller characters in a smaller size - also a size closer to the default humanoid scale too. Though I will admit I am more excited about the Fresh Monkey Fiction 6" "KOs" as that scale is more of my focus these days... I am quite happy to have other scales so long as the quality is good enough to drive a purchase. I'm not sure Super 7 is an ideal fit here.. but we might be surprised... there are some sort of offering anyway... something is better than nothing I guess. Especially when there is that Micronauts Cartoon show still sitting unreleased & entirely finished somewhere. |

But they had an o-ring to begin with. I'd be more hopeful if they did pick a brand like Mask or something else that wasn't very articulated. But Mask without vehicles is pointless. The vehicles were the star.
