A lot of the choices in this thread are dependent on the coolness of vehicles. M.A.S.K., Starcom, Air Raiders, even G.I. Joe?s coolness was tied to vehicles. No wonder kids these days are bored with toys, it?s been pretty much 10 years of figures in varying flavors with no cool vehicles or new ideas.

M.A.S.K hands down

Pole Position...Roadie and Wheels with all the gimmicks!

Just watched one of my childhood favs "The Black Hole" with my 15 yo daughter this weekend. She liked it. I came back in here to post I wished there were some modern versions of figures from the movie. I'd get them all.

"Lucifer" from the Battlestar line was so simple yet so cool. I used to use him with my Star Wars guys as an Imperial Dignitary type.

Yeah, I rewatched it as well last year, probably for the first time since I was kid. I was surprised how dark it was, both as a Disney product and considering I must have been 6 or 7 when I saw it the first time. It holds up pretty well in the genre of dark 70s scifi.
