If they just intergrated some of the Characters into the Joe line I would be happy. Matt Trakker is one of the best ME figures anyway, so why not.

I'd like 1:18 scale but the main appeal of the line was the vehicles and 1:18 scale vehicles are not cheep to produce. IF it did come back I see it in the same or smaller scale.

I don't think there is any doubt that MASK can be succesful with kids again. I also don't think there is any doubt that when the movie designers were designing the movie, or the writer writing the script, Hasbro never told them, "hey, we have this other toyline that we'd like to reintroduce, add the Humvee to the movie so we can design a toy for it and gauge whether kids will like this other brand although they have no idea what it is and won't even get that there is a connection to begin with."
it's a generic armored Humvee. nothing about it screams Hasbro trying to test the ground for MASK. |

Would def be cool. There is obviously someone at Hasbro that likes MASK and sees some value which is why we got Matt Tracker.
I do believe I will broach this subject with Hasbro when I go on the tour |

i remember MASK did some single carded figures with weapons and Backpacks and such for different environments Matt Trakker.com - M.A.S.K. / M.A.S.K. Information / M.A.S.K. Cartoon / M.A.S.K. Toys These would be great to intregrate into the POC line and would fit with the environment theme. |

One of the Joe staff worked on the M.A.S.K. line before Hasbro purchased Kenner and the Matt Tracker figure was done as a nod to him. It wasn't a test the waters deal, and as much as I want to see it as a sub team I don't think it will happen at mass retail.

So, today I decided that I will finally pick up the ROC Steel Crusher APV and first of all I just want to say that this thing is AWESOME! Surely even the most ardent ROC hater would have trouble hating this bad-boy. And the Neo Viper? Possibly my favourite figure so far from ROC. Initially I thought he looked a bit plain, and to be honest a bit cheap. But, once I had him in hand I think he is pretty damn cool and really seems to be a very good update of the original ARAH Viper - I really want a ton of these kitted out with riot shields and shotguns!
Anyway, to the point - as soon as I had the box ripped open all I could think was 'is this just an updated MASK vehicle or what? How cool would a modern MASK be done like this?' Then it hit me, we have already had Matt Trakker, and is it just me or does the Cobra Gunship not look just a little bit like Miles Mayhems Switchblade? So, who else thinks that maybe Hasbro are testing the waters for a MASK revival? Think about it, folks, a 2 foot long Rhino ... |

I would love to have 1:18 scale figures to put next to all the originals. Hell I would be happy for at least Miles or another V.E.N.O.M. agent to be made for the Cobra side.

Last I heard, Hasbro had problems getting the trademark to the name "M.A.S.K." hence why "Mobile Armor Strike Kommand" was spelled out on Trakker's card.
I really think Hasbro has looked into relaunching the brand, and I still think 2.5 Sigma Six started life as a MASK reboot that was reworked into GI Joe early on when they weren't able to fully launch MASK.
