    Starsky & Hutch's Chopper villain: pants?

    Can anyone verify that some S&H's Chopper figures were issued with tights instead of pants? (I read of this variant years ago on this forum and am curious about how prevalent it might be.)
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

    the ones i've had all had tights. unfortunately, the waist garter would loosen quite a bit over time. i've never seen any with pants like the ones mego used for starsky, hutch, fonz, richie, and potsy.

      The Chopper I have has dark blue tights, which are now riding down below his waist quite a bit. Shrinkage? (Not something I want to ponder too much, especially in that area).

        Yes, the waistband elastic on vintage Mego can degrade pretty easily. Thank you both for this information. I was thinking the pants version might be like Ralph Malph's trousers.
