I know, I had a post like this from a while back, but post Legacy has left shelves bare and a pretty good line cancelled, I wanted to see what everyone might have wanted down the line as of now, plus all the new members might have some cool ideas . . .

I'll start with this: I REALLY wish Spinmaster had done some of the characters from the original film, or have some kind of "expanded universe" line like hasbro does with Star Wars, meaning we'd get characters from '82 and a few who were not in the movies. Maybe they could put them in a two pack with a comic book, or stick with the theme of "The Grid" and give out a code that gives them access to an online game of some kind.

Plus, some classic Lightcycles in the same scale as the new ones would have been neat.

On the Legacy side of things: Obviously complete the line that they didn't finish. I also wish there was an electronic Recognizer. Maybe it could have some gear mechanisms along the "legs" so the prisoner deck could come down to the ground. What would also be cool is a sort of joystick like handle for the electronic sounds and lights to be controlled, kids would feel like they are piloting it.

For the future?: Some people don't care for stylized animated figures, but Tron:Uprising could get some very cool cartoon-esque looking figs. I think they would look great.

What would you like to see, program?

I have to agree with you there Dev, for as much negativity as there is out there towards Spin Master, we are quite lucky to have all of the things that we did get from this movie. To be honest though, I am somewhat disappointed with how they handled the line from a business perspective, because if you compare it to the new Pirates line, they really dropped the ball as far as planning goes. In a 6 month window of time from the beginning of the promotion strategy until the bitter demise of this line, SM produced 2 series of toys, with Series 2 being incredibly scaled back due to the impending cancellation. In that same amount of time, Jakks Pacific, the folks in charge of Pirates, have 5 waves of basic figures planned, 3 or 4 waves of 6 inch figures, a few 12 inch ones, 3 waves of deluxe figure sets, a big ticket item (Queen Anne's Revenge), roleplay toys, and various other promotional sets of figures, and some of their basic figures stretch back into the previous films. Quite an aggressive strategy, and one that would have worked nicely for TL if it had been implemented properly. That's not to get down on SM for their work with TL, I just think it could have been handled a little better planning-wise is all. But enough about that, on to the point of this thread.

If they were to continue making merchandise, I think the things I would like to see would be the following: (I'll break them into groups)

Role-play Items:

Definitely would've liked to see more Identity Discs, like CLU, Castor, Quorra, etc. or even a Build-Your-Own kind of thing, where you can choose what color disc it is and what color the lights are, similar to the B-Y-O lightsaber kit that they have for Star Wars. I also would've liked to have seen the Classic Discs as well, TRON and Sark colors. I think a harness type thing that could have the discs attach to them would've been cool too. You could also make a better Baton and even an electronic Baton katana/staff/other weapons set too.

Basic Figures:

I'd love for Castor to see a wide release, as well as Gem, Bartik, Jacket CLU/Kevin, Black robe Kevin, Helmetless Sam, Quorra, CLU, and Tron, and maybe the other Sirens and some disc warrior combatants. Then, I wish they would've made a wave or two of the Classic figures, like the original CLU with Bit, Kevin, TRON, Sark, RAM, Yori, Dumont, the Classic Sentry, and maybe even an MCP of sorts that lit up and said phrases from the film.

Vehicles:

I wish we would've gotten more cycles, like Rinzler's, a generic program cycle and a generic Sentry/Black Guard cycle. I would want CLU's light jet as well, as his has another set of wings and guns that the generic ones do not possess. The Classic cycles would've been cool too, and they could've filled out a shelf nicely. A Classic or modern Light Tank would've been nice and would give the Light Runner some decent competition.

Playsets:

I think the biggest of the missed opportunities here was the lack of playsets. In a movie where the world itself is one of the big highlights, to not have playsets of some kind is just not fathomable to me. They could have done CLU's Command Ship with lights and sounds, a removable top panel allowing for access to the inner areas and several different spots for figures to interact with the vehicle. Then, a Recognizer with lights and sounds, a working lift feature, and functioning cockpit area and Guard slots on the legs would have made for a cool way to display the figures. And for a true playset, you could do either Kevin's house, the End Of Line club, the Portal, the Disc Arena, or Flynn's Arcade, all of which could have cool hidden features.

It would have been cool if the 4" Black Guard came with pop off wings.

As most members seem to wish, the Castor core figure. The movie wouldn't have been what it was without Castor.

I would have loved to seen some lego sets. Could you imagine building Flynns hideout or the EOLC? Or Flynns Arcade with Minature Arcade Machines?

I know right. Almost every single Disney movie that came out in 2010-2011 had legos. And they skipped TRON: Legacy. What a dissapointment.

I would love to see an HO scale Tron Train

Speaking with my contact at Lego last year I asked about Legacy Lego sets, they said that while they would have loved to have done that line, it just wasn't going to happen. I don't blame companies like Spinmaster for their efforts, its all Disney. They have always under appreciated and mishandled the Tron franchise.

I would like to see a Castor figure, the figures without helmets and a few more vehicles.
