Description: Inspired by 1/6 scale Joe figures, the Big Jim was a line of action figure toys produced from 1972 to 1986. The Big Jim line was smaller in size (closer to 10' in height compared to Joe's 12') and each figure included a push button in the back that made the character execute a karate chop action. Each figure's arms were made of a soft vinyl material that contained a mechanism that simulated bulging biceps when the elbow was bent. Big Jim was less military-oriented than the Joe line, having more of a secret agent motif, but also had a large variety of outfits and situations available including sports, space exploration, martial arts, hunting, western, camping, fishing, and photography.
Description: BMX began during the early '70s as kids inspired by motocross racers began racing their bicycles on dirt tracks in southern California. In 1974, the National Bicycle League formed as a BMX sanctioning organization and regular organized races began to come together. As BMX racing began to reach a fever pitch, Bob Osborn and Wizard Publications launched Bicycle Motocross Action Magazine in 1976. The new mag would quickly become known as the BMX bible, tracking the races, points, events, riders, and of course, the latest in BMX bikes and equipment. The name was changed to BMX Action in 1982 and the publication continued to run until 1989 at which point it was combined with Freestylin' Magazine to become 'Go' which ran until 1992.
Description: Battle Beasts are 2″ tall anthropomorphic animal action figures that originated in Japan in 1986 as 'Beastformers,' as an attempted spin-off of popular transforming robots at the time. When the line came to America, they were called Battle Beasts, to better reflect the 'rock, paper, scissors' game that could be played with them. These nicely detailed action figures were based on animals and equipped with body armor and a weapon. In addition, their chest armor included a heat sensitive sticker that would reveal one of three elements – fire, wood, or water. Later, an invincible symbol known as the Sunburst as be released, and became a true chase item, as having a Sunburst warrior amongst your Battle Beasts, you would never lose!
