M.a.s.k

Orlee

Hey guys,

I know I can rely on you to answer this questions that has been bugging me for days now!

What's the name of that little robot guy in M.A.S.K that kind of looks like R2D2. He could turn into a "moped" and Matt Trackers son used (scott i think) to ride around on him. Think it starts with B

Seriously, it's on the tip of my tongue and it's driving me mental!

Loved M.A.SK, but couldnt they have thought of something better to turn Miles Mayhem's chopper into than a jet?

O the memories. 1 of the best cartoons ever!

bruce sato only spoke in riddles. he wasnt fit to drive that truck!! Who else was there?

Matt tracker was the main dude. Myles mayhem was the bad dude. Alex was the co pilot on rhino afaik.

Am i the only one sad enough to have this on DVD? I have season 1 and am very proud of it

Orlee

Watched some of an episode on a certain site I use for watching... nothing to see here move along... don't want me getting in trouble now do you?...:rolleyes:


Anyway to the point, am I the only who now thinks, god great cartoon but what a crap themesong?

selpher

Am I remembering correctly that every episode would end with everyone laughing? Usually at Teebob, after learning a lesson in safety.

yep that sounds right.

Did anyone have any of the Mask toys? I had Slingshot, Firecracker, Matt Tracker's car and Condor.

i always thought the jeep that hid a boat was the most pointless invention ever!!

I have th dvd of season 1. Got it in dunnes stores one or two years ago for a fiver. I still have the volcano monster truck too:D Best christmas present I ever got.

I don't know...

I don't think this one has aged well at all. The plots are always utterly stupid and far too much screen time is given over to the brat and the annoying robot.

On the other hand I still get enjoyment out of the Transformers cartoon which I watch every day on Sky Digital... I think it's more down to the great characterisation in Transformers than anything else.

Wasn't the last season of M*A*S*K almost exactly like Wacky Races each week? With all the vehicles competing against each other in races around the world with Venom trying to cheat all the time.

Robot Chicken did a piss take recently:

I had that toy. Think it was called Gator. Also had Switchblade and Rhino I think.

A mate of mine still has all his MASK toys. About 20 in all. Still in boxes (but well used though). Haven't decided whether it's cool or sad yet.

Great cartoon though. My favourite of the 80's.

The last season with all the races was terrible though.
