I recently picked up some Mask vintage figures and having trouble identifying one of them and want to complete these.
Who is the blonde guy with brown overalls and blue boots? He was among these other figures and is the same size as the others but I am not finding him on online checklists. Anyone recognize this guy? I am looking for the helmets of these figures. I can trade or buy. If you want to trade I will show you some trade stuff I have but I only have vintage. If you have some of these masks please let me know. Thank you Last edited by addicted36; 03-16-2020 at 08:04 PM.. |

That is from TYCO's Dino-Riders Line, the figure is "Yungstar" and he came packed with the Quetzalcoatlus Dinosaur set.
Unfortunately most of the M.A.S.K. helmets dry rot and crumble to dust... That problem already started 20 years ago; back in the early 2000's. Whenever I found an intact mask/helmet, the figure was already wearing it. Finding the masks/helmets loose is extremely difficult and with time continues to be seen less and less. I recommend to get 2 of each figure, one wearing the mask/helmet already and one without it. That way you won't have to remove the mask and accidentally break it. Besides the problem with the masks/helmets, M.A.S.K. is an amazing series to collect!! |

Masks from European exclusives and Split Seconds are especially susceptible to dry rot, the rest of the US released stuff should not be particularly fragile.
Loose figure lots without masks is probably the worst way to start a MASK collection. |
