They already had the cheaper Secret Wars-style bodies and the Kenner-inspired capes, if they’d shied away from the bizarre triangular patterns and just painted recognizable iconography on the heroes’ chests (things like exclamation points, question marks, lightning bolts, targets, etc.) these would have made some good generic Heroes.

I have their transport vehicle and it’s awesome. It puts most of the Secret Wars vehicles, and a good deal of the Super Powers vehicles to shame. Way cooler than a Justice Jogger.
