Steve Austin and his crew were truly an international hit as evidenced by this wonderful catalog page from France. I love how Jaimie is now “Super Jaimie” but Maskatron? That’s multilingual baby! Like our Facebook Page Check out our Instagram Get the expanded digital edition of Rack Toys here.
I was slightly deceived by the title “Bionic Classroom” as a kid, I assumed it would be a playset where Steve and Jaime did cool Bionic things. Nope, it’s just Jaime’s work, a school that seems to be located at the airport and judging by the chalkboard, she’s blown her cover…..
