Hi
Basically I had some figures when I was younger that I cant find anymore...at all! And I can remember really non specific things about them...so I wondered whether with the small things I can remember whether anyone can help me! Trust me i really have a bad memory...
I can remember them being pretty small maybe 1 1/2 inches tall. One of the figures had a trucker hat on, possibly purple. The other guy was bald with possibly orangey clothes. I think they came with a truck or wagon that was purple... ...and thats it
Any help would be appreciated...its a bit of a long shot so I apologise.

Wow, I remember having these a long time ago. I never remembered the name of them either. This is cool, I think I might buy some.

MASK was one of the greatest figure lines of all time. I loved those things.

A few figures are pretty card to find, like a few of the bad guys and the little boy, but a lot of the most sought after items are the cars in there complete form. So yeah, if you have the vehicles, then you could have a gold mine.

I think my favorite MASK figure was Matt Tracker with the red car. I also remember the little bonus accessory packs that were cool. I have one of Matt where he would ride down a zipline and another where he came with a little raft. It was cool to get extra masks etc.
There was another line of figures that were just about the size of MASK figures...I can't remember what they were called. Skyriders or something. Hell I don't remember. Anyway, I liked them as well. They hooked to these divices that would ride up and down and across a wire.

They didn't last that long though. I can remember the ropes getting really tangled after a while but they were still good figures. I used their rides for my MASK figures...even though the Air Raider figures were slightly bigger.

There were also these little figures I had that were around hte size of the MASK figures but had magnets on their fett and their vehicles had magnets too. To go along with the theme of this thread, I don't remember the name of them.

I remember the magnet things too. And another similar toy was the little figure that were about the size of MASK figures that rode around on the dinosaurs that has lazers, guns and stuff like that on them. Most of the Dinosaurs had switches that allowed them to walk via battery power too.

Yeah this looks like them. Man how do you guys remember this stuff? I can't remember the names of any of this. I remember the magnet things too. And another similar toy was the little figure that were about the size of MASK figures that rode around on the dinosaurs that has lazers, guns and stuff like that on them. Most of the Dinosaurs had switches that allowed them to walk via battery power too. I remember having these too. Once again, the name slips my mind.

It just hit me I had this one. I also had a bunch of the figures that were sold in the two packs without dinosaurs. I had a dude who used a hang pterodactyl as a hang glider as well. They were great. You can see all of them at this site www.toyarchive.com/DinoRiders/DinoRidersToys.html

I actually still have some of those in a old tox box and I do believe most if not all the parts are still intact to the dinos.

I collect MASK, Starcom and Dino Riders but I've never seen Air Raiders, they look pretty cool. I haven't managed to collect as many as I had as a kid, MASK stuff goes for a fair bit on ebay so I don't bother unless I see cheap stuff at boot fairs. When I was a kid I had absolutely loads of Starcom, it was so good that everything was operated by the magnets in the feet, the base was so good, I haven't come across much of that since selling mine years ago. The worst thing about selling my MASK stuff really cheap is that I have loads of mint condition empty boxes for all the vehicles up in my loft. Infuriating.
