Big Jim - Spy Series

Spy Series

Since 1974, Mattel released a series of Spy themed Big Jim figures.

  • Iron Jaw – A villain for the Italian Spy Series : with a metal lower jaw and a prosthetic arm ending in a hook which can be changed with other extension that were stored in his green briefcase. One of the most rare figures in the series. A similar character with an iron jaw and hook arm, Trap-Jaw, would show up in Mattel's Masters of the Universe action figure line.
  • Boris – An evil chauffeur with a steel cap on his skull and a fist which could extend from his wrist with a cable. A remarkably similar character named Brocken would later appear in the World Heroes video game series.
  • Professor Obb – A bearded mad scientist.
  • Dr. Bushido – A baddie who wields a glow-in-the-dark katana. Bears a striking resemblance to Ming the Merciless from Flash Gordon.

Famous quotes containing the words spy and/or series:

    Living, just by itself—what a dirge that is! Life is a classroom and Boredom’s the usher, there all the time to spy on you; whatever happens, you’ve got to look as if you were awfully busy all the time doing something that’s terribly exciting—or he’ll come along and nibble your brain.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
