Ah, yes...memories...Max...Vergil...wasn't he that fowl that they called a chicken on the show or something like that? And who was the main bad guy's name, again?

I loved it, it made the most out of the toyline with some consistent writing
Norman ruled.

I think I can dimly remember it. What was it all about?

Max is a teenager who is chosen to be the "cap-bearer", meaning he was given a magic cap that took him into various "portals" into other realms to fight evil beings, his most frequent enemy being The Skullmaster.
The series had no fear of killing people off either

I remember that show, it was awesome. I had so many of those toys, but they were so damn expensive. I remember the normal sized playsets were $21 plus tax cdn, but they still ruled.

I always bought the small 4 pack playsets for like 5 dollars, kept all the Max toys, then bought the big playsets at garage sales. I even bought playsets that werent MM, but they were still cool.
I wanna watch some MM eps now....
I remember the animation being really good too.

Awesome show. I remember I used to watch it right before I went to school, back in the days of Junior High. The voice acting was always top notch: Rob Paulsen, Tim Curry, Maurice LaMarche, Tress MacNeille, Richard Moll (Motherf*ckin' Bull from Nightcourt!) etc.

I remember this show a bit...
Isn't the voice actor for Max the same one as Raphael in the original TMNT series?

Ooh, yeah. I always liked this show. My brother did, too.

Wow I thought I was the only person who watched this show and remembered it. I miss it to but Im sure if I watched it now I would just get bored because it was a kids show in the 90's...

Err...and what does that mean?
I've got the entire series on tape, I still watch it.

Am I wrong in remembering it either ended with a cliffhanger, or like, a really messed up last episode?

Nah, they just retconned the entire series, Skullmaster was defeated, but he almost wipled out most of existence, so Virgil and Norman were killed, so Max was transported back in time to the day he got the cap, so the entire thing could start again.

Oh yeah, I remember that.
If they brought back any old 90's toon, this should be one of them. It wouldnt even need to be a remake, since they could go from the beginning again, at the end of the old series.
Now that I think of it, the last episode was depressing....

This one of most underappreciated shows of all time. Awhile ago I looked it up and expected some kinda huge underground fan community, but there's hardly anything on the web about it. Such a shame. I'd snatch up this series on DVD in a second.

I never saw this cartoon, but I really wanted to. I even had a bunch of the toys, my most prized being Skullmaster Mountain, or Skull Mountain, can't remember. I played with that thing constantly. If they put this series on dvd, I'll buy it.

This show was great. The only thing is that where I live they put it on around 6:30 am on weekdays, making it damn near impossible to watch. I'd love for it to come out on dvd.
Wow, I didn't know anyone watched this show. I really liked this show and the toys were great. I'd get this if it came out on DVD.

What he means is that he liked it as a kid, but now that he's grown up, he probably wouldn't enjoy it anymore if he were to watch it again.

So what? I still watch it
I still watch the original series, as does Spitfire probably, so what you just said was pretty contradictive. (not an insult in the slightest, just an observation)
Besides, I was'nt even bothering with him that much, so why bring this back up now instead of contributing to the discussion?

One of my favorite 'toons. I used to watch it everyday before school. I had a lot of the toys, too. Wish I could find them now.
