Trans Am Erik Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 This is the start of a large project that should be a fun build for me. I plan to make detailed versions of the most popular MASK toys. All the cars will be displayed in attack mode. I'm starting with the Thunderhawk Camaro. http://youtu.be/2EV1mzyGNOc http://youtu.be/2iCYNVult9g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trans Am Erik Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Disassembly went pretty smooth, got rid of those ugly ground effects. Now I have to fabricate the window frames before I cut the doors open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathgoblin Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 So, we're looking at Rhino, Thunderhawk, Hurricane, Gator, Jackhammer and Raven, maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trans Am Erik Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Here is what I am basing the Thunderhawk's jet drive on, the turbine powered Jaguar C-X75 concept car. In the diagram just change exhaust to thrust! The engines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doulane1 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I spent a whole day watching toy reviews and videos of M.A.S.K. after your post. It was wonderful. I had firefly ( a sand rail) and the Thunderhawk Camero. I hope the project goes well, I am following. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skydime Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) Wow! I thought I was the only person that remembered MASK. When everyone else was hardcore collecting Transformers and GI Joes, I was collecting these. I had Thunderhawk, Scorpion, Firefly, Bulldog, the black car that split into three pieces, the 300 ZX, the motorcycle with the sidecar, the RV, the blue SUV and I am sure others I don't remember. (Sorry I don't remember half the names now.) Heck I even saw my old Bolder Hill set in my parents' outbuilding the other day.

Trans Am Erik Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 I have an F14 and an F105, both 1:48 to kitbash for the M.A.S.K. vehicles. Thunderhawk's body goes into the purple pond tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarana-X Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Crazy, man. Do you plan to make them transfromable, or just static battle modes? I'd thought about making the 57 Chevy myself. The gullwing mod looks awesome so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trans Am Erik Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 Turning doors into wings: i used a pair of toneau covers for the underside of the doors. They allowed the doors to have an aerodynamic wing shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
