Back in 2022, the San Diego Comic Con had an exclusive set of new versions of a trio of classic characters on sale. These were Big Jim, Pulsar, and Major Matt Mason. Interestingly, some years ago I suggested in a comment somewhere on the blog that it would be a good idea for Mattel to produce an updated version of the character. I was thinking more of one that looked the same as the original, but had a different type of articulation than wire within rubber. Anyway, four years back Major Matt made what was probably a brief and limited return, which I learned about only recently. I got the set of three figures from eBay, even though it was really only Matt I wanted, but I'll still give the other two a good home. A number of years ago (around 15 or so) there was talk of a big-budget movie of the Major starring Tom Hanks, but for some reason or other it never came to pass.
