- Mego released CHiPs figures, based on the TV show, in 1979
- Mego released both Jon and Ponch individually and in two-packs (one figure and one cycle)
- I have heard that LJN acquired the CHiPs liscence in 1982 and produced figures of Jon, Ponch, and the Motorcycle which are identical to the Mego figures, as well as a 4 pack that featured Jon, Ponch, and two cycles. I have not seen any of these LJN sets.
- Mego also released 8 inch figures of Jon, Ponch, and Sarge , plus an 8-inch-scale cycle
- Michael Dorn played Officer Jebidiah Turner on CHiPs. A 3�-inch figure was later made of Dorn's character Worf, from Star Trek
- Mego figures were distributed in the U.K. by Ideal
- The Mego CHiPs figures were distributed in Canada by Grand Toys
- The Mego CHiPs figures were distributed in Brazil by Glasslite; unlike later Glasslite lines, there does not seem to be any difference between the US and Brazilian figures
