Top 10 Toylines Ready for Reboot | List Show #9
Ойын-сауық
Toylines come and go. Some succeed (like GI Joe and M.A.S.K.) and some fail (like Centurions or Dungeons and Dragons) for a variety of reasons. Even the smallest of toylines have ardent fans that keep the dream alive of someday seeing their favorites resurrected and back in the aisles.
Join us as we count down 10 Toylines Ready for Reboot.

Skeleton Warriors NEEDS a come back!
M.A.S.K.! A new series too with some gray hairs on the creative direction so it doesn't get too redesigned. You don't have to change anything about this series- just use the animation tech at our disposal today and write better stories. Then make "deluxed up" versions of what already exists, like MOTU classics.

Centurions!!! Centurions!!! Centurions!!! (Have I ever said Centurions?) Repeat after me: Centurions!!! (I cannot hear ya!!)
I would add MegaForce to the list. Super-massive military machines are always an awesome concept. But, failing that, I would gladly second Dino-Riders, Battle Beasts, and Mask...
Warduke, the evil Wizard and a few of the monsters (looking at you Hook Horror!) were featured in the Dungeon & Dragons series! Warduke even captured Dungeon Master!
Sectaurs did have a five episode cartoon series in 1986. It was produced by Ruby Spears, and the voice cast included both Peter “Optimus Prime” Cullen, and Frank “Megaton” Welker.
Toy lines that seriously need to make a comeback -- Shogun Warriors, Burning Key Cars, A-Team, Go Bots, Rock Lords, and Masters Of The Universe.
How about Barnyard Commandos? LOL, they were hillarious!
We need toys like these for the love of god. Kids don’t have great toys so these would be perfect👍🏼💯
Dear Toy Galaxy guy and or people, I can’t adequately express how hard you nailed this list. The quadruple, nostalgia gut punch of Dino Riders, Crystar? Visionaries and Sectors was amaze-balls as I both collected and loved these toys and then proceeded to forget about them altogether.
Captain Power!

Oh my God I remember when I was a lot younger and I was reading a Silver Hawk comic in like the fourth grade nostalgia!
STARCOM Eagle force (With updated articulation in 3.75" size) Sgt. Rock (With updated articulation in 3.75" size) Adventure people (with updated articulation) Captain Power (With updated articulation in 3.75" size) Supported by a video game that is interactive with each toy purchase providing access to additional DLC. I am actual surprised there aren't more toys marketed with video games.

cops was so cool ..only thing that bugged me is the toys didnt look like the show characters in some cases.buttons mcboomboom being my fav just wasnt as cool in toy form:(
Exo squad and spiral zone
No love for Go-bots? I had everyone of those franchises. I could definitely see a "Power Extreme!" Remake. It's about darn time MASK came back. Fold them into a division of SHIELD. Come on Hasbro! We're about done with that Star Wars and Marvel Legends stuff...
gotta agree with this list! Would love to see Crystar and MASK on the shelves again.
Micronauts!
This video just made my day!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
First off 100% agree with a new Visionaries series, I still have most of the figures and vehicles in storage, just missing the Lancer Cycle with Ectar and the Sky Claw, did pick up a Mortdredd figure in a lot. I was surprised you didn't mention Spiral Zone, with it's post-apocalyptic setting and well crafted characters.

I honestly didn't even know the Spiral Zone existed until about 4 or 5 years ago. Not a line I have ANY experience with or reference level.
I would love a reboot of all of those things. I loved them all, ESPECIALLY mask.
Marvel Legends style D&D figures would be awesome!
Silver Hawks! I discovered one of my favorite music artists because I was looking up Silver Hawks and found Lazerhawk... I was happy with how both meshed well.
Sky Commanders!
Amaising video! Great job!
Bionic six, tiger sharks , jayce and wheeled warriors Bravestarr
Man if they remade spiral zone I'd watch every episode. Man I loved that show.
Yessss! Mask, silverhawks, battle beasts for sure! Keep battle beasts simple that's why they were awesome. Gotta love how we we were prepped for human animal chimera being grown in secret underground labs 😳
Thanks for giving some attention to Battle Beasts. It made me think back to that one day in '87 when I got my first Deer Stalker and Pirate Lion... ...if they reboot the toyline like you said.. ..that would really be awesome!
Yes to all of those except C.O.P.S. Also include Inhumanoids, Starriors, Mattel/Popy's Godzilla Gang, Army Ants, Shogun Warriors, Micronauts, He-Man, Godzilla and something with the Universal Studios Monsters.
Seems like the market for COPS might have been lost in the time between this video and now.
Great list! My only list are M.A.S.K, silver Hawks, Centurians and Dino Riders
How is Exo Squad not on this list ???? Epic toy line and epic cartoon.
I dont know if anyone else has said this before, but... Wouldn't Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors be a potential runner up to this list? I currently own 4 battle beasts -only one has the rub symbol now- and man, do i wanna get my hands on some Silverhawks! I only had Monstar and Quicksilver (twice) when i was a kid...

Did you know that J Michael Strazinski wrote some of the episodes?
When the Coof hit and I had 2 weeks of quarantine, I ordered Warduke, Strongheart, and Melf the Elf off Ebay, a couple of Kenner's Superpowers( Batman, Robin, and the Batmobile) and Wolverine and Spidey from Secret Wars. I had all those as a kid .
Just watched this video again after a few years it's funny how the only line made was one of the ones dan said to forget about. Barnyard Commandos.
C.O.P.S were my childhood marvel legends, the articulation was insane for the time.
Yes! I had nearly all of these lines. I was an action figure junky! Loved Battlebeasts, loved Mask toys! Centurions were way too big for sure! Silver Hawks I never owned but my cousin did... I remember them and he doesn’t... so weird. I have the theme song in my head still. I wish Dinosaucers had a toyline... like the characters better than Dino-riders. Way to keeping it all 80s Dan!
great video you had my top two but in different order, I loved c.o.p.s too but they were hard to get hold of in the UK. this video brought back loads of memory's

When I was a Kid, we make a war game based on the Battle Beasts. In the current G.I. Joe comics from IDW, Masks is part of G.I. Joe and Venom is part of Cobra.
I have some of all of these but the silver hawks. And love the silver Hawks cartoon
I'd like to see thundercats picked up by netflix, that reboot they got was really good with some awesome alternate lore witch made me sad when it got cut. aside from that maybe He-man but that would be a bit of a stretch since it got a good show in 02.
SILVERHAWKS WAS THE SHIT!!!! Loved it!
Finally found the cartoon! and WarDuke is in it :) This makes me a happy bearded Lady
So many forgotten options. You stated the best, but the 80’s had so many toy lines that are forgotten. Max Steels Roboforce, Wheeled Warriors, Inhumanoids, Starriors, etc.
dino riders and mask were awesome together!
Yes! Sectaurs! I still have one of those puppets. I made a custom Warduke, even gave him light piped eyes from a transformer head lol.

Starriors! Robots with interchangeable pieces and each one had a weapon built in that was wind up powered.

Battle beasts!!!! Love those figures.
I totally forgot about Crystar, they were so cool looking :D
Gargoyles is the show Id love to see rebooted. And Street Sharks.
In 2021 Sectaurs, Silverhawks, and kind of centurions have gotten reboots. Also barnyard commandos.
1st would prefer the Sectaurs being done in a MOTUC style, 2nd Battle Beasts done the same or even better for Mega Bloks to get a hold of them and do the line right. The others D&D, Visionaries, and Mask just hope something would come of quality with a reboot. I got one that if done right would have been cool, remember Starriors and also I would love to see Captain Power updated and I believe that was Mattel?

Those all sound good to me.
I know this is an older video but most of the toys discussed are still relevant when comes to a rebooted toy line. I would love to see an updated version of The Silver Hawks. They didn’t quite get the cartoon or the toys right back in 1986 but it never too late to try again!
I still have 2 Sectaur figures. Originally had an assortment of various used puppets and figures, but my collection was liquidated a short while ago. Still have a VERY scratched DvD, though!
Your #1 was mine the moment I read the header. Bravestar could have been an honorable mention
hey this is a great channel. i just discovered it and definitely am subscribing. while i can tell this list is more of an 80s list and not 90s (but still awesome) can someone please bring back bucky o hare!? it was such a great cartoon and a pretty decent toy line too. ps. please do a 90s list.

IDW is doing a comic, Transformers Vs Visionaries, which may just restart a new Visionaries toyline. A new Leoric figure was part of a Hasbro Toy-Exclusive pack that showed off figures of characters from their 'Revolution', 'Revolutionaries' & 'First Strike' comic series. IDW's 'Hasbro-Verse' also includes ROM, Action Man, GI Joe, & MASK
Somewhere in a desk drawer, at Powell Elementary School, in Birmingham Alabama, contain 12 of my Battle Beast that got taken from me by Ms. Risser during class. She never returned them at the end of the school year...

I had/have Warduke, Crystar, Miles Mayhem and his Switchblade chopper, and one Battlebeast but I’d love to have a Silverhawk (expecially Bluegrass or MonStar)
Nice video
6inch D&d figures? Yus plus
I would love to see you do a show on the Mego style figures of the Spiral Zone and the Zone roders also surprised that Exo-Squad didn't make your list.
I would pick captain power and the soldiers of the future for #1. The gimmick with the toys interacting with your vcr would translate well with today's video game's ei skylanders/dimensions etc, and war sells, love that🤘
I had all of these except C.o.p.s. and Dino-Riders, I guess I was in Jr. High when they came out. If I could pick one complete line from this list for my own son, it would be D&D. Though I guess he would probably prefer MASK.
ok, that first one i completely forgot was dungeons and dragons but I did have the figure shown
MASK and Visionaries are #1 on my List, but I would Love to See Street Sharks make a Come Back.
GOSH DANG I would love a Centurions reboot.
GI Joe’s Bullet Man! He needs a refresh. Lose the onesie and the latex boots and you got a winner!
No Galaxy Rangers ?
Clicked because that helmet was in that Sherwood Dungeon game from ages ago
Visionaries would be great as long as they come with their alternate forms,and how about ZOIDS!! build it yourself robot monsters whats not to love?
I know im late to this party but one reboot id love to see would be ring raiders (even if we got a dvd of the original series would be great)
*Toxic Crusaders* - This was such an underappreciated line. *Skeleton Warriors* - Not remade by an Indie this time *Bravestarr* - Although this, like a new show or film, will likely never happen... *Dino Riders* - These would be so much better now. *D & D* - Based on the cartoon! I'd love a _Legends - style_ Venger or an in-scale Tiamat. *Earthworm Jim* - The show, games and toys were so silly and fun. *Mighty Max* - A toyline of untapped potential. *Starcom* - Another toyline wherein they could do a lot more with it using today's knowhow.
Inhumanoids, Wheeled Warriors based on the cartoon though :)

Hasbro rebooted MASK as Vor-Tech. The name was changed because of the Jim Carrey Mask movie and cartoon tie-in. It was a new mythology, but was the exact same type of toy and even reused some old MASK molds.

I never considered the conflict with the Mask movie. Sounds right.
"Take it easy with the Food Fighters, thats not happening" Actually, it has, although by another name. The Grossery Gang, which is a Shopkins line for boys, now has its own 4" action figures. The latest wave even has a military theme. They look exactly like the old Food Fighters toys did, and these even have articulation, which the original toys did not have at all. The only thing that keeps the Grossery Gang figures from being truly great is the lack of compatible vehicles like the Food Fighters had, but the Grossery Gang figures are a return of the Food Fighters in all but name.
Fun fact, the Battle Beasts actual appeared in several episodes of the Japanese G1 Transformaters continuation series Headmasters(Japan actually went ahead with the full series instead of just an introduction special)
Crystar could be re-branded as Steven Universe toys. There is a surprising lack of actions figures based on Steven Universe. I could see a cross-over between Crystar and Steven Universe. Also, lets not forget the Stone Protectors.
Battle Beast where awesome!! You could equipe them with weapons from G.I.JOE.
Can you imagine if Crystar had become the molten one and Moltar were the crystal one? Damn that would be confusing. Guess we just got lucky on that one.
I want to see Zoids relaunched! I also want to see a video about their history!
Great list, I wouldn't mind seeing a few of these make a comeback, especially D&D. But if any line of toys needs a reboot, it would have to be Willow from Tonka. I need a 3 3/4" or 6" General Kael complete with steed, real bad. It will never happen though :(
