Re: ERTL Toy Line Discussion

The belts are molded, unlike the action figure counterparts.

I also just recently won the Koopa, Iggy and Spike figures, still in the package for $20, as well as the walkie talkies, also for $20 (boxed as well).

Is it possible to reverse the color on Mario and Luigi's clothes so it looks like what they wear today? The jumpsuits would be blue while the sleeves, pockets and collar would be red and green.
