This and Optimus Prime were instrumental in my decision as a kid to be a truck driver as an adult. I loved that Rhino so much. I never had my own Prime because my parents only bought us Gobots but I loved the cartoons and begged in vain for those toys.

Man the 80's was a great time to be a kid

I was fan of MASK as a kid but only never got the Rhino back then. I finally got my hands on one of these back around the mid 90s brand new condition in the box for about $50. Still have it in excellent condition at my mom's house in NY. I remember watching the Discovery channel show Monster Garage and thought to myself... "holy moly they are building MASK vehicles"!

My brother and i were huge mask fans. We had so many vehicles! I had rhino and i agree the detail was simply amazing. I too was influenced by the trucker era. Convoy, BJ and the bear, movin on, cannonball run, as you mentioned. It was a great time to be a kid. My brother and i sold our mom on getting this for us because it was two vehicles with two figures for one. My brother helped me get this. Then a week later i helped him convince my mom to get him get the 6 wheeled tank he wanted. My second favorite was the 57 chevy that became a tank. We employed the same tactic to get our own transformer devestator. I held on to them for so long. I wish i still had them. They keep re releasing our old toys because we had the best toys. Thanks for the video and trip down memory lane!

Had a RHINO when I was a kid, and that was definitely one of the greatest M.A.S.K. toys IMO. I have many fond memories of hours and hours of playing with that massive rig; loved that whole line and thought all those little mask sculpts were really cool. Wish I still had those toys. 😕

This is a reminder to all toy lovers how great we had it in the 80's MASK, GIJOE and so on. Miss those wonder days!!! Great review.

Thunderhawk is the reason I love M.A.S.K. to this day Rhino was good as a support vehicle, Same for Transformers I've always been a Hot Rod fan and didn't like him that much once he became Rodimus. Hot Rod by the way for the younger viewers is basically Bumblebee but in red and orange and the original Bumblebee was a mini autobot that could only take the body of small cars that's why he was a yellow beetle he could never be a muscle car.

God this brings me back! I want this truck again! Ahhhh the 80’s were the time to be a child! Great toys! The like of which we will never see again

I was totally focused on G.I. Joe by 1985 and never purchased a single M.A.S.K. toy until I was an adult collector many, many years later. It is in my opinion now, one of the absolute best toy lines ever conceived. Would love to see the brand resurrected along with a big screen tie in. Your videos are top notch Michael and have quickly become my number one channel for vintage toy reviews. NERDMASTE!!!

Poor Chewbacca. First he doesn't get a medal for help in destroying the Death Star and now dropped on his head. Love these videos. I miss being in the 80s.

One of my favorite vehicles of the whole line next to bolder hill.. brings back memories of my child hood from the 80s.

What a flashback. I use to have all the mask vehicles. I also used to get up early in the morning to watch the cartoon shows. Thank you.

Had a flashback to 1985. My brother had this truck..awesome memories of this kick ass show.

Best M.A.S.K. review ever, am a big big fan of the toy and cartoon line. Such a shame there was never a trailer ( sporting a jet inside maybe ).

I loved Masked! These were some of my favorite toys. Rhino is such a well designed toy with durability and functionality!

Owned it. Was just the beginning. Loved M.A.S.K., had a lot of them.

Rhino was probably my most used toy. I remember enjoying the cartoon as well.

Christmas 1986 was all about the m.a.s.k! Many a m.a.s.k toy was unwrapped that day 34 years ago and Rhino was the Xmas king that year. What a toy (far superior then the Bolderhill play set in my book). My best memory is of waking up at 5 o'clock boxing day morning and being told off by my parents for making too much noise while playing with my m.a.s.k toys. Thanks for bring back those great memories Michael with your fantastic review.

Hands down, the coolest toyline and cartoon of the 1980's. I only had Condor, Raven, and Piranha. I wanted Rhino, Firecracker, Hurricane, Gator, Thunderhawk, and Boulder Hill. Yeah, I was a dreamer as a boy 😅😅😅. I would have done a full summer's worth of yard work JUST for Rhino. I begged my parents for Rhino once I was at my friend's down the street. It was his sweet four year old friend that brought Rhino to his house. I wanted even more after he was kind enough to let me play with it.

Back in the day, I would also look at the brochure for hours and thought "need it!" Whenever I look at Rhino. Never happened. Also the brochure wasn't even mine. This is a great nostalgic video. Thanks!

I had this toy as a child and had found at an estate sale. I had no idea it had all these cool gimmicks! What an outstanding toy!

Still have my original Rhino, box and all. The fun part was re-watching M.A.S.K. with my oldest son and playing with the old toys from the series.

Finished! Wow, so many great memories. My friends and I divided up all the 80s lines as kids. I bought Transformers, another handled Turtles, one GI Joe and so on. That way, we got to share and enjoy them all. I vividly remember the day our MASK friend received Rhino as a birthday present... it blew us all away. Truly one of the greats.

I remember I had this and most of the MASK toys. I even had the gas station. Wish they would reboot this and make a movie.

M.A.S.K was my favourite show in the 80's

Love it! The Rhino was one of those toys I absolutely coveted. Huge, full of features, and absolutely badass looking. Alas, the limited bank account of my parents didn’t afford many of the pricier items. 100% agree- the Rhino looks like it should’ve been the “star” vehicle in the line. I suspect they went with the Thunderhawk in an uncharacteristically kind move as the more affordable alternative to parents. I only ever had the green motorcycle that turned into the gyrocopter, but man- those were cool toys.

One of my favorite cartoons and toy lines! I was lucky enough to have this bad boy and still have it somewhere in the basement. One of my biggest joys is giving my old toys to my kids.

Oh man i'm glad i found this channel. I'm going to subscribe! I was born in 82 and my toys are all long gone so it's nice to see them again. Great editing and camera work also!

I remember seeing Rhino when my class got a tour of our Primary 3 class (UK - So, second grade in the US) in 1987/88 and meet our new teacher for the upcoming year, wasn't interested in the classroom/teacher, just thought it was the coolest thing ever if I got to play with it - turned out it was just somebody's toy they brought in, and not as I thought one of the classroom toys.

Thank you for all these video's, I lost all my figures from the 80's when my parents split in 91. At least I can see other people's amazing collection's !!! Ty again !!!

Omfg.... Looking at the little toy catalogs that came with 80's toys..... I probably spent as much time, if not more, staring at those damn things than playing with the actual toys lol.

My memory isn't the best but as soon as you stated to show the truck I started remembering I had a Mask truck and car, it's weird but seeing the shinny chrome looking parts on the truck is bringing it back, Thanks Michael.

Christmas of 1985..may have been my best. That year I got Boulder Hill...GATOR...Thunder Hawk...Firecracker..and Switchblade. I WAS IN HEAVEN!! The only other perfect Christmas is the one in 1984...I got Castle Greyskull, Pointe Dread...Fortress of Fangs and a Gremlins tent you put up in your bedroom...LOL

I love your channel, Mercy. It’s all about good times and warm memories. Keep them coming!

This vehicle has the most awesomest features I've ever seen in a toy vehicle...💯✔ If I would have had this as a kid I would have had so much fun with this...👌🏼

Thanks I had this one as a kid and it was my favorite m.a.s.k. Vehicle.

Mask was an awesome toy line! Me and my cousin used to love mask. Being born in 78 I’m an 80’s child! This was one of my favorite toys outside of G.I.Joe

I remember receiving this for my birthday...the day the space shuttle Challenger exploded. My parents let me stay home from school for my birthday and I was playing with Rhino while watching the launch.

You just can’t ask for anything more 80s than this. I really enjoyed the movie Breaker Breaker! Because it gave you trucks and martial arts. There was also that movie Rolling Vengeance.

I needed this right now and I love you so much! Thank you!

My cousin in France had it! It was amazing. We never got MASK in Spain, but my French aunt gave my brother and I Raven, Gator and Jackhammer for Xmas. We were amazed by the quality. It was all about GI Joes, Transformers and Masters of the Universe here in Spain. I kept being a big Joe fan anyways.

I loved that truck. I was so disappointed when I broke off one of the front wheels. I never figured out how to fix it. I had a lot of the vehicles. Great times!

I had Rhino. I was always Matt and mate was always Bruce!! Great memories of playing with Mask Toys in friends back garden. My friends older brother collected Transformers and we used to have battles between MASK and Transformers!! We also used several Battle Beasts from the 80s too!! LOL

Every now and then. Deep in my brain. Someone will open a file cabinet. And out comes the theme from MASK. And I smile

Absolutely loved the Alex toy growing up.... used that toy so much

THAT INTRO WAS AWESOME!!!!! Thanks for the video man, you do great work!

This got a "like" from me the moment the opening scene ended. Freaking brilliant! And now to watch the rest of it...

The most underrated toy line in my opinion. Just slightly behind Star Wars, G.I. Joe, transformers and masters of the universe. I would buy any remakes from Hasbro in a New York second.

That intro was pretty cool! I didn't owned Rhino as a kid, in fact I owned only a couple of MASK vehicles back then (Kenner toys were usually pricier than other brands), but lines 1 and 2 from MASK were certainly among the coolest looking toys from that time.

"Lifter ON!" Great video and editing! Love M.A.S.K.!!!!!

I used to love that toy. One of my favorites. M.A.S.K. was a hell of a team.

One of my fave M.A.S.K vehicles. Great review! 👍

I never watched the MASK show when it was on but I always loved the toys. Most especially I loved their attention to detail and keeping everything in a consistent scale, the later of which Transformers failed miserably at.

Rhino was the only MASK figure I didn't have, my best friend did though. So I was happy. Whereas everyone else had a bunch of Transformers, GI Joes, etc, I had MASK. I even watched it on TV every morning before school. One of the funny parts of the video was you pulled out the flier that came with it. I paused it as said, "had it, had it, had it, didn't have it, had it, had it." Then I unpaused and heard you say "got it, got it, need it, need it, got it", I couldn't stop laughing! :D Great video. :)

wow. I never had this one as a toy. But it was such a cool machine. Thanks mr Mercy, bless you and your channel

I used to love this cartoon

Man im loving your channel. I was 4in April of 1980. Alot of the toys i see on your shelfs were in my toy box.

NICE, I STILL HAVE MINE IN MINT CONDITION TOO.

Thank you for helping relive my childhood.

This is so dope. Love it. Takes me back.

Great video, you covered all the details and added fun at the same time. Your rhino is in great shape!

Thunderhawk, Goliath, Rhino and Volcano Van were my favorite! They dont make toys like these anymore, 80' s toys rule!!!

Man so jealous when I was a kid my mom couldn’t afford to buy me this toys it’s good to see them wish I could of played with them thanks for the memories

Rhino was the best truck toy ever made. No question. Toys ruled back then. 😔

A little late to the channel, but I love the content. As a toy collector and child of the 80s…man do you do an awesome job on your channel. Love the extra animated shorts in the presentations. Great memories for sure,,

I forgot about the ejection seat!! My brother and friend had Rhino and it was pretty cool indeed. I had/still have the blue semi truck Bulldog

I had it back in the day.

Great video! Honourable mention for another great rig - The Snowman's Kenworth truck from Smokey & The Bandit ;-)

Ah man, I totally remember having this now that I've seen this video. Funny how we forget what we had as kids until you see something that trigger's that memory. Thanks for the nostalgic memories.

Pretty sure it's been mentioned already but great video and really dig the "roll call" bit!

Interesting mentioning that the eyes are the windows of the soul,because i remember back in the day when the mask show was on how we talked with friends of what kind of power masks used.The show like many other 80s-90s cartoons didn't go to the trouble explaining allot in some points,so we had our own theories for how this worked & that.That was one of the things i liked with the 80s,the mystery involved around a matter in those oldies.So i remember that with a kid talked about how the masks worked and he said to me that it was probably some kind of power from the mind and the eyes of each wearer.I remember an episode on the show that i think sato or gloria was fainted after overusing the power of the mask.Thing that showed that you could not use the power of a mask for more than it should be.

Rhino used sit on top of my USS Flagg had all the MASK vehicles. Loved them.

I had the MASK Rhino truck in 1989 when I was 6 years old it was and still is one of the best toy big rig trucks ever made. It should of had a trailer to go with it as well. I've got G1 Ultra Magnus and G1 Optimus Prime off eBay I want to get Rhino again what can I say I like 1980s American Big Rig Convoy is one of my favorite films.

This is one of your best! I always wanted a Rhino

Brings back some great memories. I had most of the MASK toys. Rhino was by far my favorite!!!

Toys are wealth, I never liked WWF but those big ones are worth more then gold bars

Awesome video buddy - I absolutely loved it!! Great effects and humour, not to mention that introduction scene! 😂 I had Rhino as a kid and totally loved it. Gutted I no longer have it, but on the lookout for another one. The chrome on yours is fantastic. Can’t wait to check out your other videos.

Did you ever have a friend with a pool growing up? Yeah, that's nice. I had a friend with every MASK toy made. He had Rino but also Bulldog which was another rig that was blue. And then Venom had an awesome tanker truck that folded out to an armillary cannon and headquarters.

Got this truck in 1988 from my grandfather to christmas. To this day still my most favorite present. Fun Fact: In Germany (where i am from) the nuke was not a nuke, it was a grey satellite. But this did not stop me from pretending it was a rocket and shooting VENOM scum.

Dude.. You are awesome! Been watching your videos for days.! You have brought back my whole entire childhood!!! Love ya! Keep up the good work!

In France 🇫🇷, it was untraceable. A dream for a lot of children

I had rhino as a kid and absolutely loved playing with it. This was an awesome video new Subscriber.

An old video I know, but I've just started re-collecting MASK as it was a huge part of my childhood, really enjoyed the video Micheal, will be checking out your stuff more frequently 👍

One more "Big Rig" tv show for ya.... Anyone else remember "The Highwayman".... had a big rig with a helicopter inside.... the Cab was the Heli Cockpit, the truck bed opened and rest of the heli was inside.... i cant be the only one

Absolutely loved getting this bad boy for my Bday as a kid. Along with a giant chocolate chip cookie cake. Yum Unfortunately Rhino didn't get much play time because none of my friends had any Mask toys and I didn't have a bad guy to interact with. Eventually one of my friends got Condor, but we still didn't have a villain and the downsized scale of Mask prevented us from using Star Wars or GI Joe figures with them. Rhino sure looked cool on my bookshelf though. Great review 🙏

This looks like an absolute blast to play with.

Dude, hell yeah! I had an RC truck playset.

I used to have a Purple Car from MASK..can't recall the Name thou.,but great Video takes me back to a Better time!!

Had this and other mask vehicles back in the late 80s. Great video.

I saved up and bought it myself as a kid. I still have it in my display case.

Thunderhawk was the right choice as the flagship imo. It's badass, even today. A flying car! The boss (for lack of a better term) was going 2 be Rhino but was changed during development. A. It was seen as too much of a rip off of Prime to be the leader by Kenner executives. B. It was too pricey. Thunderhawk was seen as a more affordable gateway to hook kids who would want more. But yes Rhino is the still the logo as it was planned to be the leader. Tracker was originally molded as a stereo typical truck driver w/ a hat & vest. The MASK FB fan group has a great interview w/ the lead designer/creator. Rhino was the 1st vehicle they made or at least conceived. Great review btw. Very professional.

I wish theres a Remake of the animated series,More serious this time.

Freakin awesome!! Had Rhino. Wish I still had Rhino. 80's toys rule!

LOVED this toy line! Even had Trackers son and robot pal T-Bob! Great vid!

I had Rhino and the red motorcycle. Focused more on GI Joe as a kid but did love the Cartoon and toys for mask.

I used to have one of these when I was a kid I used to love playing with it thank you for making this video

One of my 80s favorite cartoons. We had the best toys in the 80s.

Haha I use to run around the house with a makeshift mask and say, Lifter On until I drove my parents crazy!

I'm betting the reason they focused on Thunderhawk more is because they would have had to get special licensing for the IROC and GM probably had a clause in the contract that said it needed to be the focus of the show. There was a similar situation in 'Who Frame Roger Rabbit', both Disney and Warner told the studio that if they wanted any of their main characters in the movie, they needed equal time on screen. That's why you get the piano duel of Daffy and Donald and the Bugs and Mickey parachuting scene.

Only recently discovered your channel. Awesome content. I collect Transformers nowadays. But when I was a kid I had nearly every MASK toy. Rhino being my absolute favourite. Closely followed by JackHammer.
