New VALIANT Ancillary Product

Post by ManofTheAtom »

So original VALIANT did the Darque Brew and Armstrong Ale thing. What could the new VALIANT do that be comporable to that?

Maybe have Pepsi or Coke produce a VALIANT-related softdrink? If so, who would it be based on?

Have Nike produce Turok moccasins?

A Timewalker watch?

Some of those do depend on licensing, but what could New VALIANT do on their own like Old VALIANT did the beer and ale things?

Thanks.

You know who it be cool to have a softdrink based on? Solar. It's the one that makes the most sense. It could be like a power drink.

And they could have Harbinger protein bars.

Sure, why not?

Kids have been playing with crossbows forever. Long as they're kid-safe, why not?

While the idea of a Solar "energy drink" sounds appealing, I don't know if something like this (mass-produced) would be the right direction.

Then again, there is now a "Superman" energy drink out there right now, helping to "pimp" the upcoming movie release.

I've been thinking of what to reply here.

A soft drink is mostly sold on taste, not really presentation.

If a Solar energy drink tastes great then people will buy it, so the key would be the formula, not the bottle or the image on it. Putting Solar on it would just be a plus.

New VALIANT could develop an energy drink, stamp Solar on it and have its name be derivative of Solar or Man of the Atom. It could be a joint venture between New Valiant and Random House.

How about "Sandria's Darque Lingerie."

"Turn on the lights and enjoy the Darque."

"Make him notice you in the Darque."
