M.A.S.K! Illusion
is the ultimate weapon! For those that think that the Mask
collection is based on that abysmal cartoon that is also based on
the Jim Carey, then you are very fortunate my dear readers, for this
incarnation not only predates that movie but is totally different
than a guy or dog putting on an ancient mask of Loki.
The M.A.S.K.
(Mobile Armored Strike Kommand) team is secret organisation that is
led by Matt Trakker who endeavours to fight the criminal world when
they police and military have failed. Trakker’s team are empowered
by special masks that give them access to a variety of powers in
order to fight their rival organisation VENOM, who get up to a
plethora of nefarious activities in attempt to destroy the free
world.
Fortunately for our
team at M.A.S.K, they also have access to a wide variety of
equipment and vehicles in order to keep the status quo and prevent
VENOM from ruling the world. This was definitely the big draw card
when this series was originally aired on television during the
1980’s.
Each episode starts
with Trakker using his “super” computer to select certain agents who
are best suited to the task at hand with the storylines portraying
that classic “80’s” excitement without anyone really getting hurt.
Clichéd storylines, over the top acting and that classic animation
where computers could do anything in the future, M.A.S.K. is
definitely recommend for those wanting a trip down memory lane or
for those with younger children who wish them to watch good clean
entertainment. Highly Recommended!
