I recently came across another example of these figures bagged, but not of the Ja-Ru variety:

Both sets were made in Hong Kong, possibly by the same factory. The figures themselves seem to be identical in composition.
I find the lack of a bar code on the Playmakers package noteworthy, inferring that it might pre-date the Ja-Ru package.
Or that Playmakers was just a two-bit operation comparatively, ha!
