My brother and I virtually had the whole MASK vehicle and bases collection as kids. I wish I had known they would become so collectable; I'd have found a way to hold onto them.
Hey man, ahhhh mate hindsight is wonderful right? If only we knew then what we know now, how different would our collections be 🤷♂️ Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment 👍
This was one of my first MASK vehicles. The Hurricane is such an American styled classic and perfect as a tough, armoured vehicle. The turrent feature is so cool, love tanks in my vintage toy lines!
Ah Mr Fuller of course you have exceptional taste lol, funny how we even get nostalgic about toys that weren’t even ours, but we still played with them and had that connection. Thanks for watching buddy 🙏
The Hurricane is definitely one of those MASK vehicles that are instantly recognizable, even to the non-MASK aficionados among us! Top review mate, I always enjoy seeing how the transformations work and the original commercials are brilliant!
Hey Scott, aw cheers man glad you enjoyed it, it’s definitely one of the better looking vehicles, not so sure about the transformation mode though lol. But those commercials! So ahead of their time with real looking vehicles at the start, crazy for that era. Thanks for watching pal 👍
What even is a field command post in a car!? 😂🤷🏻♂️ Cheers Stu it’s definitely one of the cooler looking vehicles, I’ll have to get more MASK on the channel as it’s taken a back seat recently 👍
A cool vehicle for sure. I never read the back of the box lol always thought the weapons on the front were flame throwers or something. Lol shows what I know!
Obviously we're not big MASK guys over here, but can fully appreciate why you love this line. Hurricane is awesome!!! Looks in great nick. I like how, as an owner of this vehicle, you give advice to future owners on what to look out for 👍 thanks for sharing Luke 😁
Hey Matt, well in turn I appreciate that you watch even though it’s not a line you are committed to collecting. And trying to give viewers basic info and advice is the least I can do, if it helps one person buy with a little more confidence then it’s job done 👍 Thanks for supporting the channel with such dedication 🙏
This is a cool MASK vehicle and I would be keen to see this (when/if) HASBRO bring back the line. I always learn a lot from your videos Luke, Great stuff.
Hey Mike! Aw mate don’t! I’m trying not to get excited about the line possibly returning, but this vehicle would surely be in there! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Thanks for watching my friend 👍
I still have my childhood Hurricane and I'm very lucky that it's in near-mint collection. It's a solid-feeling toy in disguise mode and one of the more robust vehicles in the line. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us Luke! 👍🐵
Another great episode Luke and your right the hurricane is one of my favorites too will have to try and get one back into my collection such a great looking mask vehicle 😎👌🏻
Hey Ryan, aw maté definitely dip your toe back in if you feel you are tempted, the bikes are a great starting point, but hurricane isn’t hugely expensive, I hope to tempt you more in the coming months 😂👍
Such a cool vehicle Luke! The colour as well as the flame decals are 👌. You’ve got a cracking example of it too 😍. Digging the T-shirt 😉 Cheers mate. Have a great week.
Hey Ed, cheers man, it’s a great vehicle, and those flames don’t feel like stickers, I think they are painted on 😳😳😳 And thanks glad you like the t shirt, the person who sent it clearly has great taste lol 👌👌👌🙏
lol hey Phil! It’s a beautiful looking vehicle for sure, and yeah my history teacher had a Vauxhall Astra!!!! What happened!!? 😂🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for watching buddy 🙏🏻
Hey man, aw yeah hurricane could definitely work in the snow In transformation mode, why do most toys seem better when playing in the snow lol 😂🤷♂️ Thanks for watching pal 👍
I can still remember seeing hurricane come into the cartoon series and thinking wow 😮 i absolutely love mask luke buddy but never really noticed hondo had the wrong mask on in the intro 😂
Hey Steve, hurricane is one of the nicest looking vehicles in the line for sure. And the intro thing! So weird right?? Lol proper Easter egg and we didn’t even notice it lol 😂👌🤷♂️
Awesome looking vehicle Luke. Interesting about all the name changes I guess that must have happened a lot and we didn't even know. Great video dude🤜💥🤛
Hey Tezmondo, thanks man it really is a beauty! Yeah all that jossling between the companies and we were all in blissful ignorance lol, what did we care, just give us our toys!!!!😂👍
I got this for Christmas one year. I remember seeing under my parents bed (led astray by my older sister who had found the hiding place). Mine is still in great condition, I just need to find Hondo's helmet. Great review, Luke!
Awwww those damn siblings lol, glad you have this one though mate, great vehicle especially in street mode, the transformation is a bit peculiar but still love it, I’ll keep my eyes open for a blaster 2 mask 👍
Gotta love the MASK Great vid as ALWAYS my friend! Couple observations, just from my peculiar point of view...the MASk shot of Hondo in that mask in the intro always looked to me like a chicken lol. And, in addition to being the name of Skeletor's horse, the name Nightstalker name caused a bit of controversy in the states because there was a serial killer in California at the time that had that nickname; he was arrested around the time MASK was on the air, and as I recall, parents were horrified that the name would be used by a cartoon where kids might hear the name and be given nightmares by the stories of this individual. The Nightstalker's name was Richard Ramirez; he passed a year or 2 ago in prison. Just some insight that I've heard from years ago. Great effort is an understatement for your contributions Luke!
Who knew🤯 Back in the day the world snooker & darts championships were called the ‘The Embassy World Championships’ because they were sponsored by Embassy cigarettes… these and other sports had to drop these sponsors because of affiliation with the brand and product, as it was deemed it could influence people to want to smoke🤷♂️the funny thing is, as a youngster I loved watching these sports (still do), and never associated the two with cigarettes!🤯 Now there all sponsored by betting company’s😀that’s much more respincible😮 You gotta love protective parents eh!😀👍👊
Hey k daaawg!!! lol a chicken!???? I now can’t unsee that!!! 😂 that’s all I’ll see from now on in the intro 😂🤦♂️ Woh! I did not know that about the serial killer! Pretty unnerving that name been used, just as well they changed it eh 😬😬😬😬😬
Hey Luke…I mean ‘Firespray’👋 Love that new Tee btw! I wonder what happened to the real life vehicles from the MASK adverts? I used to have a Hyundai Coupe (MK1), that was the same colour as Hurricane😂 off memory it was officially Aquamarine Blue..Beutiful👌 It had a nice stripe down both sides I should have put flames on it, defo didn’t have a Gail force wind howitzer!🤣 I love finding fun facts out about the toys we had or have in our collections. This was a great video Luke and know you’ve done a few similar vids, but would love to see more like this! Knightstalker🤯…that would have been cool, but defo looks more like a Hurricane 😃 The projectiles back in the day really popped, no wonder we lost them. Yours is in really nice condition mate…love it! Take care mate👍💪
Hey Craig thanks man! Aqua marine blue eh?? Sound very nice, I remember the Hyundai Coupe’s they looked pretty sporty if I remember right. Dunno what a “Howitzer” is but kinda want one on my Civic! 😂 Glad you liked it mate, will try and do a few more in the coming months 👍
Great video buddy. As we know I’m not into my mask but mate I love the look of this, such a cool car! Also great but of knowledge there about Nightstalker & Dragonfly naming issues 😊 Can imagine back in the day the rival toy companies getting bent out of shape 🤣
lol hey man, oh yeah before Hasbro took over bloody everything!!! lol glad you enjoyed it mate, hurricane is one of the most attractive vehicles in the line without a doubt, I’ll have to get some more on asap 👍
Can't go wrong with a good old flame licked American vehicle but those lawyers in the 80s were busy though 🤣 Now, I can't remember but were there variations of the spare wheel on the back? Nice one Luke 👍
lol hey Dave, I know you like this one, aw did you just tell me that as a ploy to get me talking on a switchblade recon conversation 🤔😂🤷🏻♂️ But yeah interesting that the toy companies had feuds back then , but I don’t recall a variation of the spare wheel, in fact there were very few variations of MASK vehicles, hmmmmm would it make a good video topic 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔👍 Thanks for watching mate
Cool video Luke, hurricane (nightstalker) was my favorite as a kid, I badly wanted it, got one and got it still to this day, I also recently bought a misb one too 👍👌
Hey Rob, great to see you in the comments man! Aw so pleased you’ve kept hold of that hurricane 👌 and now you’re just showing off with a MISB version lol. Hope to see you at NEC pal 👍
@dsReviews As a child, I thought he was singing about their "mad charades" so thought they must be guesting on Give Us A Clue during their time off. Hang on, what time off?! ;P
Love this vehicle it looks so good! One of my favourites!
Hey man, yeah mine too, although I have so many favourites I feel like I’m cheating a bit lol.
Thank you for watching 🙏🏻
Yeah. This is such an iconic toy from our childhood. The Hurricane is a great toy.
Hey shabby, aw mate how recognisable is it? Can’t mistake it for anything else can you?
Cheers for watching pal, really appreciate it

Dead right Brendan! This is a beautiful vehicle, one of the best in the line, you clearly have great taste my friend 👍
I remember my friend having this and loved playing with it in his house after school. Definitely worth the spot light. Cheers for sharing Luke.
Ah Mr Fuller of course you have exceptional taste lol, funny how we even get nostalgic about toys that weren’t even ours, but we still played with them and had that connection.
Thanks for watching buddy 🙏
Agreed it is an awesome vehicle. Great video mate. Love it when MASK is in one of your videos. Always enjoyed how they introduce it on the cartoon.
Hey Chris! Thanks man, it needs a bit more love back on the channel for sure, I intend to remedy that 😃
Thanks for watching pal 👍
My brother had this. Yeah, that brother. Mr. "Tell Mark he can get a free Switchblade" brother. You can see why I felt I deserved the Hurricane more.
The Hurricane is definitely one of those MASK vehicles that are instantly recognizable, even to the non-MASK aficionados among us! Top review mate, I always enjoy seeing how the transformations work and the original commercials are brilliant!

By far my favourite looking MASK vehicle. I have to agree, it looks so much better as the car than the fiield command post.
What even is a field command post in a car!? 😂🤷🏻♂️
Cheers Stu it’s definitely one of the cooler looking vehicles, I’ll have to get more MASK on the channel as it’s taken a back seat recently 👍
A cool vehicle for sure. I never read the back of the box lol always thought the weapons on the front were flame throwers or something. Lol shows what I know!
Hey Ron, me too!!! Never bothered to look at what the weapons actually are! 🤷♂️😂
I mean I still don’t know what a “Howitzer” is 🤷♂️😂

Hey Stevo!!! Thanks man, definitely one of the more stylish Looking vehicles in the line 👍
Thanks for watching buddy

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us Luke!
👍🐵
Hey Dave, aw you lucky duck! So great to hear you Stu have your childhood version, look after it my friend, it’s a gem of a vehicle 👍
Cool vehicle. I wonder what the advertising for MASK was back in the day...those commercials are insanely cool!
Hey Matt, aren’t they??? Real looking vehicles in the ads, mega cool for back then, wonder how they did them 🤔🤔
Another great episode Luke and your right the hurricane is one of my favorites too will have to try and get one back into my collection such a great looking mask vehicle 😎👌🏻

Very nice Luke! Love the colours of vehicle and figure 🤩 As a teacher wish I had a car like that lol
lol hey Phil! It’s a beautiful looking vehicle for sure, and yeah my history teacher had a Vauxhall Astra!!!! What happened!!? 😂🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for watching buddy 🙏🏻
I love the details, like the "Goodyear" logo on the tires. I wonder what they paid for that right.
I guess they would’ve had to right?? But an amazingly specific detail for an 80s toy line, just a great touch for these vehicles 👌
Great when you play with it in the snow now that is very fun doing that
Hey man, aw yeah hurricane could definitely work in the snow In transformation mode, why do most toys seem better when playing in the snow lol 😂🤷♂️
Thanks for watching pal 👍

Hondo was called in at very short notice, for that promo, and it was the only mask he had to hand at the time.
That’s my explanation, anyway. ;P
😂😂😂 perfect mate let’s go with that!!!! lol it would explain everything 😂😂👍👍👍
