I don't know MASK figures at all. But recently I acquired a lot of them. As far as I can determine the guys in the first photo came with their original masks. The second photo contains a bunch of guys and masks none of which seem to go together (though if I'm wrong about this please let me know).

There's a bit of paint worn off on some of these, as shows in the photos, but in general they're in great shape. What are they individually worth?

I'll let someone else give you a actual number, because I'm not well versed on values, but I seem to remember they are less than I thought the would be compared to some figure lines.  Which always surprised me.  I know it wasn't a huge success for Hasbro, but I enjoyed the hell out of that line when I was a kid.  A lot of folks see it as a kind of Transformer/ GI Joe bastard offspring, but I got lots of play time out of those things.  And at least the early part of the line always held up under my rough playing (nothing worse that a toy breaking easily).

 

The one on the far left, general something or other... he went with the Copter/ Jet Fighter.  And then I think the bald guy on the right was either in the Red-Semi Truck or the Pickup Truck. The other guys I'm not sure about.

 

I know a few members were collecting the masks.  I think Bachman was one if I remember correctly. 

 

Anyhow, GOOD LUCK!

Individually they are worth about $4-5, and with those 10 figures, the entire lot would probably go for around $30-$40 on ebay, if not, more since each one has a mask, even if the other masks don't match, there's enough collectors that would want the spare masks to complete their figures. The masks themselves are rarer and more valuable than the actual figures.

True that. I still have a few really worn out MASK figures that I and my brother found at thrift stores in middle school. At the time we had no clue what they were. But we used them until the paint rubbed off and the joints were loose. And someplace I still have them.

Thank you. That's very helpful. I'll probably see if anybody on here is interested before I post them to eBay.

I always loved the Miles Mayhem figure, the figure always reminded me of Mr. Belvadere.
