    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.
    If you send one my way I promise I will hold it in my hand to see how light and flimsy it is.

      I don't remember if this has ever been addressed, but do the FF Ledy's have really short neck plugs like the Mego ones do? That might help address the head swapping issue. Any of you lucky guys with the Ledy fist fighters ever pop off the heads?

        I'am not one of those lucky guys that actually has a Ledy Fist Fighter(or two),so i dont know about the neck plugs on them,but checking out the WorldMego Acc Check i see non Fist Fighter Ledys with both a long and short type neck plug.Looking at the Aquaman there,it also looks as if there were two different styles of the long neck plug.It looks like a combination short plug top and top plug bottom.

          I guess with Lili Ledy there's only one thing you can be certain of and that's you can't be certain of anything

            I believe that the FF heads have the shorter squatter neck plug

              how many different colored pelvis sections did Lili Ledy make? I've seen green and red and "pink flesh" colors. Are there more?

                  Who was the blue on? Here is an auction that had a green pelvis Robin.

                  This is the first one I've seen with a green pelvis. All my Spider-man Ledy's have red.

                      I'll double check. Yes to Red and Pink Flesh. As for the Blue/Green, my memory tells me I have seen a few, but I prefer to check in person to make sure.

                        Looks like faded blue to me too

                          It's blue, not green. My mistake. My computer color sucks...

                            Are the Lili Ledy Green Arrow accessories,hat,bow and quiver the same as Mego or are they different in some way?

                              They're all a little bit different, but not much. Luis sent me a pic of his Flecha Verde Hat not too long ago. The hat looked kinda rubbery and had turned blue. It looks like Lili Ledy molded the original Mego accessories, but used their own materials. I think you could only tell the difference in the bow, belt and quiver with a side-by-side comparison.

                                More rubbery would be keeping in line with the belts
                                though the bow is likely firmer like the Batichica cowl
