Title: New Toyline - M.A.S.K. by Kenner
Post by: bjallen2880 on July 12, 2017, 07:33:09 AM
I've tried to search the forums to make sure no one else has brought this up, but 'MASK' is such a commonly used word it was hard to determine if someone has asked if the M.A.S.K. toyline by Kenner from the mid-80s is up for consideration to be added to the database.

I don't personally see any problem with it, but usually we like to make sure that one of the moderators is willing to curate a new toyline before adding it. Engledogg? SoS? KidTDragon?

I'll take it on. Bjallen, give me a category breakdown and I'll add them in so you can get started.

I'm not really familiar with the line (I only had a few M.A.S.K. toys as a kid), but it seems like something we'd include on here...

I added the M.A.S.K. toyline here:

https://www.shmax.com/products?q_filters_toyline=7149

and some subcategories:

Figure Packs
Adventure Packs
Vehicles
Playsets
Other (for the oddball side merchandise)

If any other subcategories are needed, let us know.

I just created a listing for Piranha:

https://www.shmax.com/product_details/29184/piranha

I believe it to be complete from what I was able to find on the net, but if I missed anything, feel free to submit the missing parts.

Oh yeah, I know there are variants that involve the shape of the masks - for example, I've seen Spectrum masks for Matt Trakker that are shorter than others, with the longer ones having an extended chest section and some changes to the top of the mask (holes added).  Just throwing that out there.

Here are two versions of Thunderhawk that I created:

https://www.shmax.com/product_details/29185/thunderhawk_short_version_spectrum_mask
https://www.shmax.com/product_details/29186/thunderhawk_long_version_spectrum_mask

The pics that you see on some of the records are photos I took a few years ago of a few toys I thought I was going to put up on eBay, but never did - that's why they're sorta crappy.  They're "gallery-worthy" but not really "primary- or form- photo slot worthy"...

There are also toys that were only released in Europe.

Thank you all!

I hadn't checked this in a while (because Transformers finds in the while have been bone-dry in my area lately), and I was pleasantly surprised to see the new toyline added!
