Apparently the MA.S.K. toys are now hot items among toy collectors. Gotta say, those toys were very inventive and well designed.
There is/was one dvd release in the UK, but it only included 5 episodes out of the series 75 (Click here). Maybe they're available in the States?
I grew up in Turkey, in a city called Izmir, along the west shore of the country. I have been living in the U.S. for about 6 years.
Either those M.A.S.K toys were never imported or I just didn't know where to look.
Thanks for pointing our the DVD. I'll have to look for it.

You're welcome! Hope that one day they'll release all episodes in one dvd box set. I'll definitely be getting that, if only for nostalgia reasons.

You have gotten the attention of the mysterious lady. She turns to face you. Her face is devoid of any flesh. You are frozen with horror as she begins ripping your body into a bloody mess.

I loved nothing more than MLP.
I still haven't forgotten the day my parents made me give them all away to a church rummage sale. :'( I was allowed to keep ONE (a perfume pony).
I haven't tallied up how many I had, but I was looking at a MLP site one day that had pictures and descriptions of everything that was ever released, and it brought back many memories. I had at least three buildings (Nursery, Dance Studio, and Ice Cream Parlour) and almost one of each kind of pony that was ever produced, and then some.
*thinks* Nope, still haven't gotten the day I was forced to give them away. > Yes, I know I could re-acquire many of them on eBay, but I don't want those ponies, I want the ones that I had.
I miss my Bubba: 1986 - 2006.
