Duke, ROM, Acroyear, Matt Tracker, and Leoric All Walk Into a Bar...

The Visionaries were AWESOME!


If I were 12 again I'd be exploding right now!

Hasbro just announced a Shared Film Universe for G.I. Joe, ROM the Space Knight, the Micronauts, M.A.S.K., and the Visionaries.  I'm going to go out on a limb and say many of you are at least unfamiliar with the Visionaries (they were these awesome o-ring figures that were a size between G.I. Joe and COPS).

Now while these  are all some of the best parts of my childhood, I'm not sure why they are going to mix some of these properties?  G.I. Joe is obviously military action adventure, ROM, Micronauts and M.A.S.K. are all sci-fi adventure, and Visionaries is science-fantasy.  Not the easiest mix.

But maybe, maybe it will be cool, even if its not good.

Now we just need the DnD 5E rules engine adapted to these properties....
