About This Figure
Never released. Sources name the mask differently (Blaster on Matt-Trakker.com and Penello, New Blaster on Wikipedia) and describe it as a power lift, a service station ramp or a repair ramp that turns into a tank.
Ramp-Up was the M.A.S.K. side of the two Split Seconds vehicles that Kenner announced and never made. Hondo MacLean was to drive it with his Blaster mask, or a New Blaster mask in Wikipedia’s wording, and the toy is variously described as a power lift, a service station ramp and a repair ramp that converts into a tank. Albert Penello’s catalogue page carries a box image for it, credited to a contributor, which is the clearest sign that packaging artwork existed even though the toy was never produced.
The reason it was dropped is not documented in any source we could open. We have not hosted the box image, because the copy on that page is low resolution and carries the page owner’s overlay, so this entry has no photograph.
