Well there is Vamp, Grace Jones playing an indistructable vampire.
Red Sonja (I blush to mention it) also has a _Strong_ female lead,
somewhat eclipsed by Conan, but not totally.
 
The first StarWars film has a nice scene in which Luke sets off to
 
rescue the princess in a stolen suit of armour, on seeing him she
says "Aren't you a bit short for a stormtrooper?" and proceeds to
rescue herself. The sexual politics of the rest of the film(s) didn't
live up to this....
