I love these early catalogue pages for Big Jim’s P.A.C.K, which was Mattel’s clever rebranding of the popular sports and adventure character. 

Anyone who scans this site probably can figure out how happy a memory this toy line was for me. This ad is still using the original storyline where the P.A.C.K is made up of ex-cons, that got abandoned in the Marvel comic.  

You can read the Big Jim’s P.A.C.K Marvel comic adaptation here.

Below are all the Toy-Ventures videos I’ve made for Big Jim (more soon!)
