Superpowers toys used the superfriends cartoon (renamed superpowers to help sell the toys) to help with the toyline.
Marvels secret wars toys came out right after. Marvel didn't make a cartoon even though they had their own animation studio at the time! (come to think of it why didn't they make a crystar cartoon to promote that toyline also?)
So why didn't they make a cartoon? They had kids books that took place on earth (no battleworld) and had them in a gijoe type team. Like the mask cartoon cap and doom could "call in" any hero or bad guy the mission needed.
So why no cartoon? Would it had helped the toyline or would the toys still fold after a few waves? Why didn't marvel make a secret wars cartoon?
What do you think think about this? Should marvel had made a secret wars (and crystar!) cartoon in the 80s?
