why did sigma 6 fail
im not sure why the toy line failed. i never bought any but i thought they were great. only thing were that they were 8 inch so not compatible with 3 3/4, but it seems that there are a lot of kids who would have bought them anyway.
i still dont know why the cartoon failed. although it wasnt the old joes i love, it was made perfect for todays kids who watch the stuff. like DBZ, pokamon, nurato and so on. it always seemed like the joes were on the brink of being defeated but at the last moment their shear will pulled them through, which is what the kids like. the art was good with fast paced action and good suits that i want on 3 3/4.
the only bad things are how they changed scarletts voice, using heavy duty instead of roadblock and tunnel rats stupid character and of course hawks son, but he was there so the kids would have someone to relate to. it had some other good points like cobra commander actually being evil rather then stupid. the customs as i already said, the action and i loved that storm shadow was equal if not better then snake eyes.
i know some of you bought the toys and maybe watched the cartoons, why do you think it failed, and will hasbro do the same with the new cartoon?
