“🚁 Condor: First up is the sleek and versatile Condor. This high-flying recon vehicle became an instant fan favorite, setting the stage for the excellence to come in the Action Force line.”
Text from the description for the latest Valaverse YouTube video, suggesting that Condor was originally meant to be a vehicle, not a figure

How amazing is finding this 1985 Camaro IROC in mint condition? I mean, what are the odds of this happening? I was looking up M.A.S.K toys and found this.

Proposal: M.A.S.K. (Monstrous Anomaly Strategic Kontrol)
Both M.A.S.K. and Inhumanoids are essentially dead in the water, with little chance of straight up reboots saving either of them. MASK is always going to be redundant for the company that owns both Transformers and G.I.Joe, and Inhumanoids was always an act of hubris.
Buuuuut...
Sometimes when a lifeform can't survive on its own, mutualism is the way to go. So we mash the two concepts together.
Earth Force was always a bunch of jerks with goofy looking suits. All of the nostalgia for Inhumanoids is on the monsters. MASK had the theme of disguise and hidden super-tech that never really made sense in a world where they operated openly.
But if MASK is a sort of kid-friendly S.C.P. Foundation or M.I.B. group, tasked with capturing and covering up supernatural threats to mankind, then your problems solve each other.
Inhumanoids, mutores, and other monsters crop up to wreck havoc, and undercover MASK-agents arrive, defeat the horror de-jour, and provide a reasonable cover-story. They wear the weird tech-masks both for their weapons and vehicle-interface (not from the OG series but seriously, its obvious) and because they're literally hiding their faces and protecting their cover identities. The vehicles disguise as normal civilian rides so people don't see caravans of tanks going to shoot Metlar in the face.
VENOM still exists as a rival faction that seeks out these kinds of weird happenings to sell them to highest bidder, but are a sometimes-baddie, rather than the every-week clash.
Toy wise, the play pattern is a basic large-and-small. Human heroes have converting vehicles and masks, monsters come in various sizes, with a matching pop-out or surprise gimmick for most to mirror the play pattern. This actually works with most of the non-huge Inhumanoids concepts from the old days too.
Sole exception is the Inhumanoids heavies, who are largely rotocast big-format figs that can sell at a lower price point.
