It's time for the ladies to be represented here on the Cosmic Ark with this blog post of M.A.S.K.'s Manta with it's driver the dangerous and deadly Vanessa Warfield.
Ms. Warfield is a member of M.A.S.K.'s enemies group V.E.N.O.M and her car the Manta(which is a Nissan 300ZX) converts into a assault plane to take the battle to our heroes.
And in case something goes wrong Vanessa can activate her ejector seat and make a safe escape to come back and fight yet another day.
This is a rather nice toy from series 3 or the "Racing Series" of Kenner's M.A.S.K. line and was released in 1987 and was one I hadn't seen before until opening it up out of it's gift box this past Christmas.
Yet another great addition to my Mobile Armored Strike Kommand collection and it's nice to have another villain in my set too.
I love it! You've got such a great MASK Collection. I have a bunch of the figures somewhere, but I can't locate them since I moved into my house. It's funny that it took so long into the toyline for that car to be made.
ReplyDeleteThanks Buzz I been building it up slowly. : )
DeleteI didn't remember a villain in MASK. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteReally? I bet you do Hobby. : )
DeleteI absolutely love Vanessa. I had one when I was little. My cousin had introduced me to the show and when I found out they had a purple car as well as a cool female villain to actually own, well... I was totally hooked. Such a fun toy. Glad you got her!
ReplyDeleteI knew you would love this one Miss M.
