M.A.S.K Toy Commercial 1

[aldeshsa]

I was waiting for the Rocky Dennis action figure.

[botswanky]

Great toys... lousy cartoon. (apart from the cool MASK theme intro)

[jimjob28]

I remember I got Rhino the day the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded. It was my birthday and I got it as a gift. Strange how memories link totally unrelated things.

[thehmph1]

"Each sold seperately"  fuck you. I hate that quote.

[zacch1]

@thehmph1  Yeah - "each sold seperately" - No shit! , such a bitch ass thing to say.

[elebits4545]

Why do we call these mask? .....This is a helmet, not a mask.....

[JoeMommaRox]

I had the jackhammer truck ... never really got into it though ...

Does anyone remember a franchise around early 1980's which was about plants that were all evolved into like vehicles? I always wanted those ... a friend had a bunch though :(

[ihavesexforhappymeal]

Google is your friend.

Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors

I looked up the intro here on Youtube, I can't say that I ever saw the cartoon but I did have one of the toys.

[tintinex]

@JoeMommaRox jessey and the wheel warriors!

[brscth]

@tintinex Joyce and the wheeled warriors. They have it on Netflix, it was not quite as good as I remembered it. It is best to remember how good it was than to watch it now and realize how simple minded we were as children.

[808jspekeg6]

@brscth Yup, that's how I felt after re-watching Transformers G1 series. The only 80s cartoon (anime) that I think still kicks ass to watch, even as an adult is Super Dimension Fortress Macross (ROBOTECH) and Macross: Do You Remember Love?

[brscth]

@808jspekeg6 That's funny because I also watch Robotech, Macross (I like them both equally) and DYRL. Everything else just seems too silly or childish whereas Robotech is still a good show as an adult.

[clapnot1]

Corny, Corny, Corny...

[ajones35]

Nick Kenworth truck :D

[TCal513]

I still never understood why a helicopter changed into an airplane

[entrailsgalore]

Just like the commercial says, "Illusion is the ultimate weapon". People won't suspect much from a helicopter, then BAM it is not a supersonic jet that is about to destroy the entire planet!!

[David315842]

An airplane is faster then a helicopter, while a helicopter can pick up stuff a lot more easier and with more prescision then a plane.

[bboyillscience]

I had that shit as a kid....and even I didn't understand that either when I was 7-8 yrs old..lol

[mounsey88]

I USE TO HAVE THAY TOY IT WAS FKEN SWEET

[toolslinga]

I've still got the semi, minus whatever the mortar shoots.

Totally forgot what the name was and what it was from.

[awazha]

HMMM a reboot of MASK would be cool..

Im thinking if the could get it done in anime style / like how Avatar was done.. it'd be awesome.. merchendising would be awesome.. hell they could even get tie-ins from various auto matkers like Audi,BMW,Tayota,Honda and GM

[David315842]

You know that M.A.S.K. was animated in Japan right? and Matt Tracker was re-released as a G I Joe figure, complete with mask.

[SyberKhanX]

oh man - Switchblade was such a badass toy...

Seeing this commercial makes me wish I coud go buy one right now... :(

[David315842]

Look on eBay. :D

[phocus420]

those were great

[skafiend7]

Oh, he had the Hurricane. Once we lost the spare tire that it shot, we shot pegs to my sisters light bright out of it.

[skafiend7]

I had the Rihno, it was sweet. Don't remember what it was called, but my brother had some '55 chevy that was a tank. Good times.

[reanimate280]

this toy line will be back ..good things stick around look at gi joe and transformers they both had a neo retro classic line that did great ..its only telling that ma ma ma mask will be back along with many others...I predict thundercats and voltron wil be the next ones..maybe centurions

[Scallywag96]

Funny you should mention that. GI Joe just made a Matt Tracker Action Figure for their line, indicating that MASK and GI Joe will be on the same team! Since Kenner was bought out by Hasbro, all of the MASK property is owned by the same people who made GI Joe. The Tracker figure is the same size as a Joe, so if they bring back the vehicles, they will be Joe size as well. Man, that will be sweet!

[reanimate280]

actually the really dont need to change the vehicles I would say just update the little characters and give them better articulation ..the vehicles are very well done....I would so buy these for my son if they bring them back...especially the rhino...we really dont need them to be joe sized the vehicles would just be to cumbersome ...but when i was a kid my favorite was the green heli bike becuz the driver was like a guitar playing rocker

[awazha]

i loved the Rihno

[BLaCKBeaRNiNJa]

i still have my switchblade hidden in the attic of my parents house!!!

[guitarslave]

I loved these toys more than the Transformers...Too bad I don't have any of them left : (

[siangyih]

i hav condor in my house...is cool

[kinmanyuen]

Probably the best toys in terms of cartoon consistancy back then!

[soundsfromnothing]

Wow! I didn't remember this particular commercial! I love the stop-motion anmation at the beginning.

[swl9380]

they should make mask moive that would be tight

[UCHM]

Mask rocked

[bal0nostik]

oh my god i remember this add, i always wondered who the real guy was and why they didnt make a real movie on this, it was well good :D

[pschimme]

Mask was awesome!! I had all of them. Does anyone remember the giant gasstation/headquarters toy? It had a giant boulder that rolled off the top. It ruled!!

[TheBigDaddyDChannel]

Woah, I had Switchblade! So many memories ... Wish my parents hadn't sold the damn thing at a car boot in my later years.

[qjsolis]

You could kill someone driving around a huge truck with that damned helmet on.

[MindForge83]

Maybe it's his "Vehicular Manslaughter-cide" time of the month. "Those assholes at the gas station keep talkin' shit, and I'll--Oh, hey kids!"

[SoccerFury08]

@qjsolis Cuz in jet mode, you get speed and in helicopter mode, you get 360 degree mobility.
