For Sale Rare Ledys

[ignignokt]

Wellllll... Since I sold my Falcon and Tarzan with little to no chance of ever finding one complete again (curse you kresge1!!! --just kidding), I've decided to sell my others as well. I still find it hard to part with Green Arrow (only complete Arrow north of Mexico so I have heard). Anyway, they are 100% Ledy and complete except possibly the emblems. The chicas are all sold or spoken for. Four Fist Fighters are still available: 2 Riddlers, Iron Man, and Green Arrow. Make me some offers that I can't refuse

Travis is selling some really nice stuff !! I know it took a lot for him to break up this set!

BTW - He is great to deal with - no worries at all from start to finish. A really great guy!

[kresge1]

Yes, I second what Joe said
Great guy to deal with

Thanks guys! I really appreciate that. I just wanted everyone to know that I just have one Riddler now. He's on about the same scale as the one Hatch-08 has on ebay for $650. His vinyl was badly discolored. It was a greenish brown. I didn't think I'd be able to bring him back. He's still not 100%. He's got kind of an orange or yellow tint to his vinyl at times that's only noticeable when exposed to certain lighting conditions. I've noticed the same tone in some of the vinyl that the super chicas have when I photograph them (I'll post pics of it later). I wanted everyone to see that he looks normal under most lighting conditions. Still, he looks far better than he did. I had to do some touch-ups as well. Anyway, he's $600. $500 if he's part of a bundle. The cheapest Ledy Fist Fighter around. Also, He's missing his original hand and someone replaced it with a Ledy Mxyzptlk hand so he's still 100% Ledy.

I'm down to just a few left and all but two are the more common ones: Green Arrow, Captain America, Aquaman, Mxyzptlk, Robin, Spiderman and Superman. I want to keep all of them except Aquaman and Mxyzptlk anyway. I will miss these guys, but I'm sure they will continue to bring happiness to their new owners.

I want a Ledy Robin but have no idea of value.

[ignignokt]

It all comes down to accessories. A 100% complete all Ledy Robin is worth upwards of $450 IMHO. The Ledy gloves are incredibly difficult to find. Then it's the boots and the capes. I asked a fellow member what a complete Batman generally sells for in Mexico and he said they average around $325, but he added that they usually have repro gloves (hear that Vincent?). He's really nice. He's one of my favorites as well..."soooo smooth" as Penguin said on Robot Chicken. I really wanted to keep my Batman as well, but Vincent convinced me otherwise. I'm feeling Ledy withdrawal.

With that being said. It would be an honor to sell him to you, but ... I will really hate myself. He is down to a single fin on one of his gloves, but they're original. Not reproductions. Nicest example of a complete Ledy Robin that I've ever seen --I just wish he had red boots. Kresge1 (Vincent) has one with red boots, but he's missing the gloves and the belt. I think everyone prefers the red boots over the elf shoes. Eventually another one might come along as complete as this one. Hopefully he'll have red boots... Soooooo smoootthhh.

Your collection was beautiful. I have gotten my feet wet with a handful of these, but I may never achieve what you did. I am OK with repro accessories as long as the body and base clothes are legit, so that's the closest I'll probably get. I am a little wary of buying them now as fakers are getting better and better on these. I just don't know enough. This Aquaman on Ebay right now almost got me.

Yournot the only it almost got

I thought the same thing

[ignignokt]

At least the seller was honest. It's really hard to tell with some items. The gloves are easy because of how they're cut and the material is so different. The boots are much harder. They are slightly larger and the heel area is much less defined. Anyone can cut a pair of mego boots so look at the heels and the color. The belts are rubber instead of plastic or they're made from the same type of suede material as their undies. I've found some suede undies that appear to be repro because they have a button instead of velcro. The material is the same as the Velcro ones and the thread used to stitch them together looks the same, but the button was sewn on with blue thread? These were found on a Ledy Batman. Kresge1 has found some on two of his Aquaman Ledys (I haven't seen them yet). Anyway, I'm still considering them reproductions unless someone can prove that Lily Ledy produced some with snaps. The capes... They even used different types of vinyl on the capes. The weirdest one I've seen was on a Batgirl. It has a rough texture and it's a little thicker than the others. I think they must have used this type on the end of the line. It would be much harder to rip. If anyone else has one, I'd love to see a photo. I'll try to add a close-up of the cape to my gallery tonight, but the Batgirl in the gallery is wearing it if you want to zoom in. It just may be hard to see the pattern since she's in a plastic case.

I saw this too! Mine has the "A" as part of the belt and thought it was another variation.
Great looking ledys by the way! Good luck with your sales on these! Who ever gets them is going to add a nice ledy to their collection!

The "A" belt is legit as is one without. I believe the rubber "A" belt exists as well, but I've never owned one. I just found out that they even made a rubber Batman utility belt, even though mine is just a plane rubber belt similar in looks to a mego Robin belt. Some of the "ancient" collectors need to come out of the woodwork and tell us of Ledy rarities if they're still around. I imagine a Batman with a rubber utility belt or an Aquaman with a rubber "A" belt will fetch a pretty penny. Check this out: http://megomuseum.com/community/arch...p/t-33872.html

Turns out the rubber "A" belt is just a sticker on a regular rubber belt.

This turned out to be the case, a Robin belt with the upside down "V" sticker. I'm willing to accept a little repro with my Ledys, because the pickings are so slim. Like Steve said, as long as the figures and body suits are original at least. All my Ledys have what I think are original Ledy boots, but sometimes I worry if some of them are cut down Mego boots. :(

[mego boy CA]

Yeah, I have had my figure for many years now and I actually think I got it from Heath (high quality). He had a really nice collection going and knew a lot about ledys. It would be nice to have someone let us know more about ledy rarities.
I was worried about the boots myself but the way I see it is that as long as they look good that's good enough for me. It's too hard for me to tell if it's a ledy boot it just cut down mego boots. ignignokt has some good info there about how to check the boots and I'll have to take another look.
