In the Future Adventure Sets

A 70's-80's comprehensive assortment of 10" figures, including vehicles, clothes, accessories and playsets. The first action adventure & West (under name Karl May or Wild West) driven assortment was released both in the U.S. and abroad by Mattel, but the later assortment of spy, space/future, & pirate figures were released overseas only. Due to the wide international releases, there are many variations. There is some debate as whether the Spy Iron Jaw figure was actually produced in limited numbers, or not at all (only bootlegs/customs). Some of the later Spy vehicles and accessories started looking futuristic, then the 'In The Future series' was released. The earlier 70's clothes were released on flat cards, the 80's clothes in boxes (and smaller cards).
