    There were a couple of Magnum's on ebay in the last few weeks. Very difficult to find loose with the sun roof attached. I have only see the single carded one listed once last year. It was a thing of beauty.
    I like toys.

      I was disappointed that there weren't any Rick, TC or Higgins figures. So I passed. I was a weird kid.

      Not so weird. I bet if they put out a helicopter set, kids would have been all over those.

        ^Oh yeah, TC and the helicopter was bad-arse. Would have made a great toy.

          Very interesting, I wasn't aware of any of these items. So the CHiPs stuff never made it to production, right? Not surprising, I think the show ended in 1983. Bad timing for LJN.

            I am a bit confused. I had 3 3/4" chips figures, so they were Megos then, but LJN wanted to relaunch that line from Mego, correct?

                  That Magnum set was another that sat around at Children's Palace for year along with the Greatest American Hero set ( at Evansville's store at least).
