Hello there! Welcome back to the Wednesday Mash-up and to the Year of Mina where we celebrate everybody’s favorite weasel who isn’t named Bobby.

When I did the villains, I moved everyone around so that the villains and heroes of each line were played by different characters. With Mina being all alone, she’s doing both M.A.S.K. and V.E.N.O.M. The colour match is better here than it was for Matt Trakker. Again, I didn’t want to put the mask on, so it’s sitting nearby. It didn’t feel just right so this is one of the rare occasions where I put shadows under the elements to give a slight feeling of depth. Maaaaaybe I should do this more often?

That’s all for this week. Have a great end of week/weekend everybody and see you soon!

Greetings programs! It is time for a new mash-up. As the Year of Mina continues we’re revisiting toy lines of the 80’s.

Masked crusaders working overtime, fighting crime! Fighting crime! Secret raiders who will neutralize as soon as they arrive. The theme song is so 80’s but it’s catchy. I remember I had one M.A.S.K. toy. The Condor was smaller so it was more in my budget. Of course one of the centerpieces of the line was the Thunderhawk, piloted by Matt Trakker, which is who Mina is dressed up as this week. I seem to recall their masks would come down from the ceiling so that’s what I was going for here so I didn’t have to draw her with the mask on, at which point you can’t really tell who it is. The suit ended up a little darker than I intended, but other than that it’s fine. I think the ears on the mask don’t seem wildly out of place somehow.

That’s all for this week! Seeya next time! End of line.

Good afternoon! Welcome to the mash-up that gets posted on Wednesdays. Because it is Wednesday and that is the day that we post mash-ups. And as this mash-up has been posted, it must be Wednesday. Actually, that last part is NOT a given, but this week it’s correct (watch me mess up the scheduling).

So did you know there were bad guys in Teddy Ruxpin? Because I did not. I thought I might have to go with another toy line. But I did some research and not only is there a villain, there are four! You’ll need to go out and discover the other three on your own. Right now, here’s Deema as Tweeg. It seemed like a good fit really.

That’s all for this week and for this theme. Next week, it’s something brand new. One hint: It’s based on a role-playing game.

Hello! Welcome back to the mash-ups. It’s Wednesday dontcha know! Let’s get right to it.

“Ancient spirits of evil, transform this decayed form to Mumm-Ra, the Ever-Living!”

Yes, this week we have Chae dressing up as Mumm-ra. Spoooky right? This might have been good for the Wednesday before Hallowe’en. Oh well, Hallowe’en isn’t too far past.

That’s all for this week. One more villain to go! See who, next Wednesday!

Hello! Time for the mashing of Animus and something else. Enjoy!

To be honest, I had no idea who the villains in Rainbow Brite were. I had to look it up and well, Murky was the one I think fit best. Here’s Todrick as Mr. Dismal.

That’s all for this week. Next Wednesday we do this all over again! See you then!
