So most likely ReAction and Ultimates right?

They already have Transformers and Power Rangers, so Hasbro doesn't seem to be afraid of cannibalizing their brands with similar product. Yes I know that Super7 does a different thing with these licenses than Hasbro.

ReAction will probably scratch that original ARAH itch. I mean they won't be quite the same, but close enough since Hasbro is probably never going to release the original molds ever again.

If they do Ultimates that is where it will get interesting. I imagine they will be like the TF Ultimates and be geared more towards show accuracy. It could get crazy expensive to get these type of figures, but show accurate figures and accessories would be awesome. Also Super7 would not be afraid to do deep dive characters that Hasbro would never touch.

I could see them doing a new variation of reaction with the OG 3.75 Joe articulation. They did do retro style MOTU figures that can blend in with vintage figures.

As great as ultimates would be, I am not sure if people who are buying the 6" figures would also buy 7" figures.

That's the beauty of Super7. They don't need to sell tens of thousands of figures. Since they do small, made to order runs, they will offer something that Hasbro won't do themselves.

Of course they charge a lot more, but I think cartoon accurate figures will be great, but probably not $55(US) great.
