    1978 European Big Jim Catalog


    Mattel's Big Jim line may have been gone from US toystores in 1977 but he had a long and prosperous life in Europe up until the mid 1980s thanks to some very creative moves.




    Big Jim was no longer just a sportsman/spy in this new world but a character free of the constraints of time, he was a spy, an explorer, a pirate, a cowboy what ever you wanted him to be.

    Great stuff Brian! Most of what I now know about the Big Jim line has been through this board. Is the bear that comes with the tribue apache hard to get, I would love to use a "beater" for a custom I wanted to do and that bear seems to fit the part

          Did I see the Grizzly Adams headmold in use there on a few, including "Old Kentucky"?

          I'm starting to feel more like that every day.
