Mystery Figure: Please help me find this childhood figure

[Mojo_Lemon]

It looks like the policeman made by the Durham toy co in the `70's

My first thought was matchbox scream'n demons, but on more searching noticed this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Built-1-24-V...p2047675.l2557

And two more. I am pretty sure these two are the one I had as a kid. It looks like the chin strap is not painted on these. othar than that this may be about as close as it gets. a little paint and ou would have an almost identical head. I hope this helps!

And one more. These are very close but not exact. Now I'm curious. I will post if I find anything else. Good hunting.

This is the closest I can find to the figure I had. I believe the head sculpt on my own was closer if not exactly like the one you have. Also, the bike this figure comes on in the auction is quite different than mine was. But this may get you on the right track.

If I am not mistaken, it is a CHIPS figure or a knock off. I think I may have had the same figure myself. Might even still have it stored somewhere at my moms house.

As I recall the figure is in a some what sitting position to fit on his motorcycle. He was articulated to a point, but I believe was primarily in a sitting position. The bike was not radio controlled but took batteries. it rolled around similar to the Starsky and Hutch car's echanism. Next time I am at my moms I will take a look to see if the figure s still there.

If anyone provides information leading to the purchase of this guy I will seriously offer a reward.

I've seen this before I think. It had straight arms and legs if I remember correctly. The head looks really familiar.

Thanks guys.....that'll give me something new to search for.....haven't tried Remote Control before.

[megozilla13]

thats what I remember too. a cheap remote control cop on a cycle with this head.

I think there may have been a 1970s remote control police motorcycle toy that had a head similar to that one.

As a small child, my brother bought this figure which had a head similar to a mego with neckplug and everything. His body I believe was hard plastic but I was honestly too young to remember. Anyway, he put the head on a type 2 body, threw some Rookie clothes on him and named him "Toughest cop".

This toy is a legend in my family. LOL I would sooooo like to surprise my brother with a new one but I have no idea what toy he is. I don;t know if the words P.O. or T.C. were on his helmet or it was just added by us kids.

Any tips or leads would be appreciated. Here's a pic of the old toy now. This toy actually means quite a lot to me, so help would be appreciated.
