So I grew up in the early 90's, I missed out on stuff like He-man and such back in the day. But thanks to the internet we can enjoy many of those older classic shows like the turtles, transformers and so on. I was mostly a power rangers guy and collected most of the toys when it first came out.
What are some of your favorite toyetic shows and what toys did you guys or gals like to collect when you all were younger?
Well if we look at things like Marvel they had several toylines based on there superhero characters. Power rangers and Dragonball still sell a lot of toys to children to this day. But if you want to really get that toyetic feeling. I'd suggest looking into things like Tmnt, Thundercats or some of the old Foxkids marvel shows. I know the spiderman one had a lot of wacky toys that were both featured in the show and some stuff that was toy exclusive. Basically you can make a trpg the traditional way, but you also have to think like a tv show/toy producer for some parts of the rules.
That was inpired partly by other games in a similar syle such as cartoon action hour by spectrum gamed and s japsnese game called sparkle stars. For instance you could have commercial break rules where various effects take place between scenes. The studio or producers could mske demands on how the show is handles. Maybe they wsnt a character to take the spotlight because of s new toy, or tone down the violance due to complaints. Silly comical stuff like that. Just a few suggestions.
