From what I can make out, this is 33 and is the address that appears on the back of the Ledy figures, however, this might well have been an office/mailing promotions building etc and NOT the address of the factory.

If it was a big place (I am sure it was) then it wouldn't be just one house number, it would be 33-43 etc

Yeh im thinking the same Joe, perhaps the whole site was demolished and these are rebuilds

No I don't think so, I think the buildings look like they are 30 + year old for sure and as I said the address on the back of the carded figures does not indicate the location of the factory, the address on the back of the Palitoy cards for consumers for example was not the factory but another place that dealt with the paperwork etc.

I would say we are looking at a Ledy building , just not the factory.

Yeh that sounds about right m8, on with the quest lol

Impressive detective work guys. We at least know the location of one Ledy building. Now we need to have a TIG outing and visit.

The only picture I seem to remember was of a street vendor or something in Mexico selling overstock parts. I'll see if I can dig that one up somewhere.

Perhaps we can all go there and build a shrine or something worth visiting, light candles and party n stuff

Didn't someone on RS post a pix of it one time? Besides Shanes thread, I think I remember someone else asking about it and a photo was posted in it. With the search screwy on there, I couldn't find it, but it was posted in the last 2 years if I remember right.

I dug up loads of factory / ledy threads Chris but no joy for a picture or discussion on the actual Ledy site.

John - Thanks for the address from the cardback, I enjoyed searching out the place, I hope we can get the actual factory address and that is mapped as well, its funny it was only this morning I was playing about with google maps !

Had no idea by the end of the day I might have identified a Ledy building lol

It is your destiny Joe lol

"Look at this. It's worthless, ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless. Like the Ledy."

No but ya toys will be!

Didn't John A at Rebel Scum post a picture of the Ledy factory a few years back? I seem to remember he had photos of the factory.

From memory, someone at RS asked a similar question about the various factories, and how there were absolutely no photos of the Macau or Hong Kong factories (not even addresses of them) but there were a handful of photos of the Ledy factory.

Thats the same post I was thinking of, but I can't find it for shit. Guess its time to call Monsterquest because this is one hella elusive creature.

When I get home tonight from work I'll check to see if I saved any of the photos or not. Hopefully I saved something!

If not, someone might have to check through ALL of John A's posts in order to find it....

Don't ask me! I have had enough searching for one day, I think I would sooner ask him

I will fire off a pm and see if he has anything saved.

Oh, believe me. Going through 11000 posts of Johns wasn't fun. I made it to April '07 so far and haven't found nothing yet.

I saved you the bother Chris, I just asked him: The short of it is - he doesn't have any and it wasn't him posting any pictures up on RS .

Good. But the good thing is I found some posts that are interesting on bootlegs I haven't seen yet.

There were some Ledy factory pictures used during a panel at C3 but neither John or anyone else I have asked has seen them since or has copies so I fear this one might be a bit of a dead end guys,
I guess it'll have to be a 2010 TIG outing to Mexico to go and ask people in person lol

At least we can take our own pictures then haha

I think there is a nice hotel down the road
