Mattel has dished out another bombshell for San Diego Comic Con this year with another impressive exclusive. Things are about to get Back in Action as Major Matt Mason, Big Jim, and Pulsar is back! Mattel's first ever action figures are back as these widely popular 1960, and 70s action heroes are back for more adventures.

"Back in Action! Major Matt Mason Big Jim & Pulsar Figures – Three of Mattel's first ever action figures meet again! Major Matt Mason (since 1966), Big Jim (1971), and Pulsar (1976) gained worldwide popularity with their thirsts for adventure, handsome good looks, and inventive toy features. Now they're back as ultra-ripped super-heroes. We broke all the rules and took these characters from the 60s & 70s and recreated them as a big-muscled heroes with a mid-80's comic book feel. Colors and decorations may vary."
