M.A.S.K. is Back! Sort of…

by Paul

As previously reported here, G.I. Joe Wave 11 has a figure that many children of the ’80s will remember, Matt Trakker from M.A.S.K. Toy News International has images of the figures from wave 11 carded, but let’s face it, everyone is really focusing on good ole’ Matt:

I currently have wave 11 on pre-order and I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep Mr. Trakker or not. This image of the product packaging has pretty much convinced me he’s a keeper. Not only because he’s a neat figure, but it’s so damned nice to see that M.A.S.K. logo in the upper right corner of the card. Come on, Hasbro. There’s got to be a few more characters that you could dig up like this.

So… anyone want to buy an Airborne or Pilot Scarlett?

    LOL, I’m looking forward to this figure, I don’t really know why, I don’t really know what mask is.

    This wave is pretty passable for me… Which is great because I really want a lot of stuff in wave 10, which should be out now but isn’t. The only thing I really want is… wait for it… The Eels. I know, I’m original.

    Not that the wave doesn’t have some interesting stuff though. I like Scarlett’s colors and it will go well with my Arctic guys

    I can’t believe that some people are complaining about this figure. I think it’s one of the coolest fan treats Hasbro has ever offered.

    I like the figure as well, even though I’ve lost all interest in the 25th stuff. Of course, finding him will be the hard part…

    Slowly but surely hasbro and mattel are removing my need for a time machine.

    I think he looks pretty cool. I’ll probably end up picking him up.

    I’ve been looking and wanting this figure since I heard about it months ago. Still have yet to find it at any store.
