Thoughts on the Matt Trakker Mask Figure

Just wondering what everyone thinks about the Matt Trakker figure that was included in one of the latest waves of the New Joe figures. For those who don't now, Matt Trakker was the head man for the M.A.S.K. team. MASK was a cartoon in the 80's that featured A team of heroes that used special Helmets that gave the wearer special abilities or weapons to fight a terrorist organization called Venom, who also had masks.
The cool thing about the figures were that they were smaller than the joe figures and came with vehicles that could transform in to other battle modes.

I loved mask when I was younger and would love to see a few more figures from the series.

Anyone with me?

I'm with you. I used to love the show and toys! The Matt Trakker 25th Joe figure is sweet, and I hope they bring back M.A.S.K. toys AND vehicles.

I'm with you but keep it in its own MASK series, not through GI Joe...

yeh! bring back the M.A.S.K. series but make all the figures the same size as the Joe Matt Trakker!

I don't know how that would affect all the cool vehicles though. might make them more expensive...

Re: Thoughts on the Matt Trakker Mask Figure

Dude, the Trakker figure rocks ass. The head sculpt is probably one of the best in the whole 25th line, and his helmet is cool. His leather bondage gear is kind of strange, but other than that, it's cool. Definitely one of my faves. He's right up there with Torpedo, CP Firefly and CP Beachhead for me.

I don't really have a problem with them melding him into the Joe line. I just don't like that this was a one-time thing. I would love it if the whole MASK line was released in joe style.

It's some kind of flight harness. And it's on the original figure. Just not painted so you can't really see it.

More MASK figures released on their own or in the GIJoe line would be more than welcome with me! How about a Boulder Hill playset?

Re: Thoughts on the Matt Trakker Mask Figure

I picked up the ROC Steel Crusher and it's a great for for Matt. Very MASK like, top slides forward and a missle launcher pops out. Missles in the rear doors as well. Reminds me of the Jackhammer.

Wow. Just found this. http://www.matt-trakker.com/
Great site. I wouls love to see this line revived.

Re: Thoughts on the Matt Trakker Mask Figure

I love this figure. The sculpting and attention to detail are amazing! I wish they would do an expanded line, with vehicles, so I could get some more.

Grabbing the ROC Steel Crusher for him is a great idea! I'm gonna have to do that. Too bad I just missed all the ROC sales...didn't even occur to me.
