How many different "Mego" figures did Lili Ledy release? The Ledy catalogs I've seen don't have all the variations I heard about and seen. Did they only have two body styles for the males and one for the females?
I have to say, I think the Ledy Robin head is better than the Mego one.Comment

I'll do the best I can to answer this question.
There are 18 different figures, 19 if you count Fist-Fighting Ledy Joker...which has never been found.
There's 3 different body styles for the males, Type 1 Standard Body, Type 1 Fat Body and Fist-Fighter Body. Each one is unique to each figure. I mean there's not a Batman with a Type 1 Standard Body AND a Fist-Fighter Body.
There's only one style of female body.Comment

How about a list of who they are? I saw a Lili Ledy Tarzan on ebay that wasn't a fist fighter. I thought he was only a fist fighter. So is there a regular t-1 and a fist fighter version of the other fist fighters? And No Ledy Joker has surfaced? Wow.Comment

The Ledy Fist Fighters are: Tarzan,Riddler,Green Arrow,Black Falcon,Ironman and Joker was supposed to be a Fist Fighter too.Comment

I saw that auction and am guessing that someone pulled a switcharoo on the bodies. I've never heard of a legit non-fist fighting Ledy Tarzan, Falcon, Iron Man, GA or Riddler (or Joker for that matter). but with 35 year old Mexican toys where boxed examples haven't even shown up, I'm not going to make sweeping statements of utter certainty.Comment

WorldMEGO will do them all eventually, but we're taking the time to flesh them out.
In the 1977 Ledy Catalog all of the Ledy figures were actually represented by Mego figures for the shoot. Mego Superheroes I 1977 Lili Ledy Catalog I Plaidstallions.com
It doesn't bode well for the existence of Ledy Joker.
Some of the most persistent collectors in the world have searched in vain for Lili Ledy Joker. I'm of the firm belief he was planned, but never produced. There are still others who hold out hope.Last edited by highquality; Feb 6, '10, 10:30 AM.Comment

Brian did a great job of creating the whole ForeignMego site. The job of filling in ALL the blanks is daunting.
I wouldn't get too attached to the idea Tarzan was released on a Standard Type 1 body. Though it isn't outside the range of probability, the highest likelihood is a swaperoo. Ledy Fist-Fighting bodies are extremely rare and possibly worth hanging on to for these Mexican sellers. Unfortunately, swapped bodies, heads and accessories is the rule with Lili Ledy rather than the exception. It's been a real effort to unmuddy the information.Comment

And to confirm the SWAP/SWITCH that goes on quite regularly, as you all know, I buy this stuff about three times a week, and more often than not I find restrung bodies, mismatched whatzits and whoozits, and on and on. I have purchased Hombre de Hierro and Flecha Verde on the standard T1 bodies, too. So, it goes beyond just Tarzan. I think the issue is more about the DURABILITY of the Ledy Fist Fighting body.
If you have ever held one in your hand, then you will know immediately that it is probably some kind of odd stroke of luck that it survived the 1970's. It is very light and flimsy.Comment
