3264 Captain Laser

Released in Europe in 1980, Captain Laser is a distinctive figure from Mattel’s Big Jim Space series. This vintage Big Jim reference 3264 features a battery-powered light mechanism: pressing the button on the figure’s back illuminates the face, giving Captain Laser a characteristic futuristic appearance. The figure uses closed hands and the later spring-mounted leg construction. Specialist documentation confirms that the boxed set contains the Captain Laser action figure and a pair of red boots; no additional accessories are consistently documented for this reference. With its electronic light-up feature and science-fiction styling, Captain Laser reflects Mattel’s expansion of the Big Jim collection beyond traditional adventure and espionage themes into the space-oriented universe developed around 1980.
