If I close my eyes I am immediately a ten year old kid again in elementary school as soon as the intro plays. holy moly. I am transported back to my parents house in the mid 80's. I am almost 50 years old now. we had it so good back then and did not even realize it or appreciate it.

Transformers: vehicles turning into robots M.A.S.K: Vehicles turning into other vehicles

[@Shiirow]

Always thought M.A.S.K. and Transformers could easily be in the same universe, then in Transformers Prime, they had a secret organization M.E.C.H. that kidnapped cybertronians to experiment on and thought that would be a perfect way to have that concept. After the fall of the leader Silas, you find out that the data had survived and the government used it to create the M.A.S.K. vehicles via cybertronian T-cog data. We have the leader of M.A.S.K. using it for good, while remnants of M.E.C.H. resurface to use the technology for evil. Maybe even have Silas come back as some sort of cyborg to redeem himself in the end.

[@ViewpointProd]

a pretty damn impessive edit! nice to know i'm not the only one who loves to do this kind of stuff. My only criticisim here is that the music is mixed too loud, and occasionally the sound effects. other than that, concept wise it's fantastic, same with the editing. Absolutly love the use of the original sound effects as well! you've earnt a sub!

[@AntonXul]

This is easily the best cartoon theme song of all time! I’ve always thought this song could have been a hit if it was released and advertised seriously! The guy was singing his ass off! Too bad the editor left the sound effects & voices of the scenes as the song played. Kind of ruined it. I would have liked to hear the song isolated.

[@VF1Skullangel]

They should have used this in The Fast and Furious! That franchise knocked off this series!

Title: M.A.S.K.: Ultimate Reckoning Act 1: Shadows Rising The movie begins with a montage of the world on the brink of chaos. Natural disasters, political upheavals, and mysterious technology disruptions plague every continent. The source of these events is VENOM (Vicious Evil Network of Mayhem), now led by the enigmatic and ruthless Miles Mayhem. Opening Scene: Matt Trakker, the charismatic leader of M.A.S.K., is shown in a peaceful moment with his family. However, his tranquility is shattered when VENOM launches a coordinated attack on multiple cities. Matt receives a distress call from the M.A.S.K. headquarters. It's time to assemble the team. Introduction to Team: The core M.A.S.K. members-Dusty Hayes, Gloria Baker, Brad Turner, and Alex Sector-are introduced, each engaging in their personal lives before being urgently called to action. They converge at the M.A.S.K. base, where Matt briefs them on the escalating global threat posed by VENOM. Act 2: The Hunt for the Artifacts M.A.S.K. discovers that VENOM is after three ancient artifacts that, when combined, have the power to control the elements and bend nature to one's will. These artifacts are hidden in the most treacherous places on Earth: a sunken temple in the Pacific, a fortress in the Himalayas, and a labyrinthine cave in the Amazon. Race Against Time: The movie dives into an intense, globe-trotting adventure. M.A.S.K. splits into teams to locate and secure the artifacts before VENOM does. Each mission is filled with high-stakes action sequences, vehicular combat, and clever use of their transforming vehicles and masks. Pacific Ocean: Brad and Gloria face underwater drones and mutated sea creatures. Himalayas: Matt and Alex battle through snowstorms and avalanche-triggering skirmishes. Amazon: Dusty and another M.A.S.K. member navigate through booby-trapped ruins and fend off VENOM ambushes. Act 3: The Fall of M.A.S.K. Despite their efforts, VENOM manages to obtain all three artifacts. Miles Mayhem uses their combined power to unleash catastrophic weather events, bringing the world to its knees. Cities are flooded, forests burn, and earthquakes shatter landscapes. Devastating Betrayal: In a shocking twist, it is revealed that one of M.A.S.K.'s trusted members has been a double agent, feeding information to VENOM. This betrayal leads to a devastating attack on the M.A.S.K. base, leaving it in ruins and the team fractured and on the run. Act 4: The Ultimate Battle With the world facing imminent destruction, Matt Trakker rallies the remaining M.A.S.K. members and their allies for a final, desperate assault on VENOM's headquarters, now a floating fortress powered by the artifacts. Epic Confrontation: The final battle is a breathtaking spectacle of heroism and sacrifice. M.A.S.K. infiltrates the fortress, engaging in intense hand-to-hand combat and vehicular warfare. The stakes are raised as the fortress begins to collapse under the immense power of the artifacts. Climactic Duel: Matt faces off against Miles Mayhem in a brutal, high-stakes duel. Their conflict culminates in a moment where Matt has to choose between personal revenge and the greater good. Selfless Sacrifice: In a heart-wrenching decision, one of the M.A.S.K. members sacrifices themselves to destroy the artifacts and stop the catastrophe, mirroring the noble sacrifice themes seen in Avengers: Endgame. Epilogue: A New Dawn In the aftermath, the world begins to heal, and the surviving M.A.S.K. members regroup, vowing to continue their fight against evil. The movie closes with a hopeful note as Matt Trakker looks to the horizon, symbolizing a new era of vigilance and heroism. Post-Credits Scene: A mysterious figure is seen retrieving remnants of the artifacts, hinting at a new, even greater threat on the horizon, setting the stage for future adventures. M.A.S.K.: Ultimate Reckoning delivers a thrilling, action-packed narrative with emotional depth and a mind-blowing climax, ensuring a memorable experience akin to the impact of Avengers: Endgame.

[@dr.charlesedwardflorendobr3952]

This cartoon had good music, animation, and vehicles. I just always found a few faults that frustrated me: 1) the bad guys are stupid. When they even know MASK would ambush them, they would still go ahead with their plans. 2) MASK was always overpowered. They would sometimes have 12 good guy vehicles vs. just 3 or 4 bad guy vehicles. So i didnt see the balance 3) MASK is so stupid. Despite overpowering the bad guys 3 to 1 on many shows, the bad guys always escapes at the end of the episode.
