The following is a list of characters and vehicles from the M.A.S.K. media franchise, including the toyline and its television adaptation. The toyline lasted longer than the cartoon series. ^[1]

Toylines

Kenner

There were five different lines of toys released. Some packaging was altered for the European market to make the line seem less violent, such as revising box art so that vehicles' weapons were not shown firing, or, in several cases, changing vehicle names entirely. Additionally, Europe received 4 adventure packs that were not released in North America, as well as several extra action figure two-packs with redecoed figures.

Series	Year	Description
Series One	1985	The original toyline featuring many of the central characters from the animated television series.
Series Two	1986	A second line that expanded on the first by adding more characters from the series.
Adventure Packs	1986	A series of blister packs containing single figures and accessories, some of which were only available in Europe.
Series Three	1987	The third series of toys that were based on the second season of the animated series, whose plots centered around race driving.
Series Four	1987–1988	The fourth series was subtitled Split Seconds, consisting of a vehicle that split in two along with a pair of action figures, one of which was a transparent version of the main figure intended as a hologram of the featured character. This toyline was released a year after the animated series had ended.

The Loyal Subjects

In September 2024, The Loyal Subjects inked a deal with Hasbro to relaunch a host of legacy brands, including M.A.S.K. ^{[2] [3]}

Unlike the M.A.S.K. agents, V.E.N.O.M. personnel were not depicted in the animated series as holding any type of regular employment between assignments since most of them are criminals.
