4002 Laser Backpack

Mattel Big Jim reference 4002, known as the Laser Backpack (Italian: Attrezzatura lanciaraggi; German: Lasergerät), belongs to the early-1980s spy and space-adventure era of the range. Released in 1982–1983 according to surviving specialist catalogues, this vintage accessory set centers on the large laser unit also supplied with the Big Jim Laser Gunner figure. Designed as a futuristic backpack weapon, it features the electronic sound-effect equipment associated with Laser Gunner and expands Big Jim’s secret-agent and science-fiction missions. No additional clothing or separate character is reliably confirmed for reference 4002, so the laser equipment itself remains the documented core content of the package. It is a distinctive Mattel vintage accessory from the later European Big Jim collection.
