Those Big Jim toys came out just as I was getting too old to play with action figures, but I remember thinking that they were kind of bizarre, especially with Big Josh who looked like the original "Brawny" guy, and Big Jeff, the blond guy who looked . . . well, gay. A few years after this ad, they dropped the "jock theme" and went with a "super hero" angle with the "Wolf Pack", but a couple years later they discontinued the Big Jim line.

I used to thing that "kung-fu" guy on Big Jim's team with the iron hand, shaved head and chest tattoo was one baaad-lookin' dude.

Would you please upload this video without the silly title cards of your own in front and behind. The commercial's irony speaks for itself, and the added cheapo commentary title cards WRECK THE HUMOR.

My God! Is that Johnny Cash doing the voice over? He must have been pretty hard up for financing in those days, but then again, who wasn't back in the glorious Recession Prone 1970's?
