    Big Jim's P.A.C.K 'Baja Beast' ?

    Does anyone know anything about this black truck/camper? The info that I found via Google wasnt very helpful...

    Is it hard to come by?

    Thanks!

    It's just called "The Beast" and in my experiences it's not super rare but it is huge and has amazing box art.

      If I remember right that vehicle was featured in some of the comic book ads in the 70's

        Thanks for the FAST replies guys.

        Tell me, what do YOU feel is the value of this truck, in loose/decent shape? (It looks like the winch on the front still works and all..)

        I have one of these (potentially) on the line, but have nearly NO love for these elements of Big Jim, so this would be for swap/sale...

            Heres 'The Beast':

            (Looks decent enough to me, especially considering it's SIZE and age. Stickers look good, and it it looks to have a tiny kitchen! ...I wonder what it's missing? ..Maybe windows, or?)

                  ^ Cool, thanks! It must be rather LARGE as well, if it's in-scale with the
                  Big Jim dolls...

                  Does the camper unhook from the truck, or are they one piece?

                        Ever seen the Mexican version? They draw the "El Squadron Lobo" characters over the PACK guys, Jim is Kid Acero, the Whip is now Garfio, it's awesome.

                              This is so cool. It wants to squeeze itself into my suitcase.
