I got a 3 3/4" Draco figure from the Buck Rogers line, but it doesn't have a cape. I'm planning to make a reproduction of one. I see that the cape is in the same style as the Vintage Star Wars figures' cape where the arms fit through holes in the cape. What I can't tell is whether or not the cape material is plastic like the Star Wars figures, or the material used on a Mego Superman or Batman cape. Does anyone have a complete Draco handy to check it out? Also, any ideas on a site that has the pattern of the cape? I'd be very appreciative if someone could make a quick scan of a Draco cape and email it to me.

Thanks!

It's closer to the superhero capes, not the Star Wars vinyl. And the cape has slits cut for the arms, not round holes.

Those old vinyl capes really were not that dependble imo. My old Darth Vader's cape was useless after a few years and the Draco I bought 2 years ago of course didn't have one either,
