I don't know about you but there are some toys that i felt way the way of the dinosaur for no good reason. Here's a list of the lines I'd like to see make a come back:

Gatchaman AKA BattleOfThePlanets AKA EagleRiders AKA GForce
MarvelComics figures (especially Ultron!)
DCComics figures (especially Darkside & DeathstrokeTheTerminator!)
Yamato AKA StarBlazers

How about the rest of you guys?

[RubzOne]

Any toys made between 80-89

MUSCLE
Garbage Pail Kids
GUTZ
The REAL G1 Transformers (with decoys)
G1 Kinnikuman Figures
Voltron

[jkaris]

M.U.S.C.L.E. (of course, but with ALL the molds)
Battle Beasts (I promise I won't steal any this time )
G1 Tranformers (this is already happening- Thanks Mattell/Takara)
Star Wars, ESB and ROTJ figures(Original molds)
U.S.S. Flagg (Yo Joe!)
All I can think of now.

You guys pretty much said it all.
but i am a little wary of re-releases. when i was a kid, i was all about the 3&3/4 G.I.Joes. then they recently stared making them again. i saw them at Target and Toys R Us and they were horrible! the lack of detail was obvious. the toys looked boring and dull. and i especially missed the really cool package design. each figure had that great drawing on the left side and it was really cool! now they come packaged in pairs (that i saw) and the art associated with the new line is just too extreme and over the top. they look like super hero mutants instead of normal folks (with the few Cobra exceptions) with special skills and abilities.
but Garbage Pail Kids would be really fun to see again. they were always so creative and dam funny. again, some really excellent artwork. but i'm afraid the world is too Politically Correct now for that kind of a line to come back. so sad....but if they kept the art the same or VERY similarly styled, i'd definitly buy them. but they'd also have to keep their edge -especially in the age of popular shows like South Park and Jerry Springer. part of the fun was always that they were so over the line and extrteme, it was like a guilty thrill to collect and enjoy them...

i almost forgot. bring back Teddy Ruxpin too. hahahahaha...

Oh, if you're goin there... Don't forget the following:

Jem
Lotsa-Lotsa-Legs
Rainbow Brite
Rattle-Me-Bones
Crossbows&Catapults (boardgame)

[Adamantiumwulf]

M.U.S.C.L.E. of course

G1 transformers but a reasonable price 30-40 bucks is crazy.

Other world

Mad Balls

Not a toy line just something I liked when I was a smaller Kid. Cool toys in the quarter machines. Now it is all freakin stickers and chessie toys. It is rare to find one that has something decent in it.

DrDew's right I went looking for yuGiOh stuff for my nephew and saw the new line of GIjoes the drawings and toys didn't even corralate! I looked at the 2pack with my favorites (stromShadow & SnakeEyes) and they looked like nasty 3rd rate toys that are knocked off in TJ! What the hell!

Hey RubzOne I remember Crossbows & Catapults! My neighbor with the GUTZ had that also! Actually his dad was into those, he had Axis&Allies, Shogun, & any games involving minatures. They were the ones that got me into Gamesworkshops stuff! Thanx that brought back memories!

[RubzOne]

No prob, the Warhammer minatures were pretty pimp as well

[theCrazyest]

yeah! Citadel made some of the best minatures, SuperDetail!

[NamaNiku]

Gem, and my little Pony

Inhumanoids

[arforbes]

I want to see:

M.U.S.C.L.E. (All 400+ This Time)
Battle Beast
Rocks, Bugs, & Things
G.I. Joe (Original)
Mad Balls
Construx
Boglins

These toylines were awesome!

[musclemenkids]

i'd like to see a whole range of disney toys. Classic characters like mickey and donald.........only it would be Apocalyptic War Disney! Mickey could come with spring loaded firing nuclear warhead

[MuScLe BoMbEr]

Re-release the M.U.S.C.L.E. figures so that some of us can get a second chance

I still have 2 Battle Beasts which I do not know what to do with 'em...

Ebay IS your second chance!!!

[MuScLe BoMbEr]

Love to shop on ebay, but not willing to pay for the high shipping rates arforbes, I am in Australia. Therefore I have to pay extra for shipping rates

[DoctorKent]

The best three of course:
Rocks and Bugs and Things
Computer Warriors
Roadblasters
And a Unicron.
They already brought back He-Man, Gi Joe, and Micronauts so I'm good with those as well.
