Remember the good old Wish Book. I can remember going over and
over the toys. I think the catalog came out in late September or
early October, and it seemed like Christmas took an eternity to arrive.
Below are some pages from some of the years that Big Jim was available.
Above is a page from the 1973 Wish Book. Check out those prices!
Here's another photo from the 1974 catalog including the Sears exclusive
Safari Hut.
1975 was the year of the P.A.C.K. Look at all of the goodies. Check out the P.A.C.K. Buggy with the Whip figure included for $9.99. Was it King Richard III who said, "My kingdom for a time machine?" Notice the Safari outfit #8. It has a camoflague shirt and most of the domestic outfits came with a tan shirt. I thought the camo shirt was only a European variation.
Here's 1976. More P.A.C.K. items including the covetted SWAT outfit,
and Swamp Patrol Boat.
