I had one of these when I was a kid in the early 70's-it was the jungle truck that came with a bunch of cool accessories like a rifle,pick ,shovel and some other neat stuff. it was my favorite toy of all,but these kind of toys used too much plastic, so they started to make them smaller-the kenner star wars figures were the first.
Ya gotta love that Jack Kirby art atop the Big Jim logo at the beginning of this commercial. I had the Big Jim Sports Camper when I was a kid and I remember another commercial for it, with a catchy tune and the following deathless lyrics: "Big Jim Sports Camper...He's the king of the road...when you help him unload...Big Jim Sports Camper!"
@Captmiloman Big Jim looked positively straight compared to one of the other action figures in that line, Big Jeff. Jeff had blond hair and looked like he would have been as much at home in the sports uniforms they had as he would have in some of Barbie's stuff.
The fuck? Big Josh?

That was the gayest sounding music ever. Big Jim, the brother GI Joe & Action Jackson never talked about.
