Cowboy figures in 1/25?


Recommended Posts

Lots of truckers wear the hats and boots... I guess there are some similarities at the heart of it; they just ride different mounts ;)

I'll have to do some more looking. Sometimes the farm store toys are pretty close.

Fair warning; The Revell Ford Country Squire Wagon commands top dollar prices. Last time I priced one, the vendor was asking $400 for it. Not really worth it for just the figure. I would look for a resin cast copy, like Jarius stated. I would think someone would have done one.

Nice looking figures. I've been contemplating getting a couple of his other figures. These figures look a lot like the guys on the box art. Did this kit come with figures originally? Are these original figures or copies of those? Maybe it's just me (or the angle of the photo, or something), but the little boy's arms look a little long to me.

The original Revell kit included the two figures molded in three pieces. Hendrix has taken them and cast them in one piece plus the base.

The build up is of an AAM resin kit I built back in '03 or '04 to which I added the Rancharo chassis, front and rear bumpers. But I never had any figures in resin till now.

The length of the boys arms includes two cap pistols. Did you take that into account Jim?

There are some nice figures available from Scaleproduction. I only have a figure of the Fall Guy, but there are many others and some of them with a hat. ;)

Here´s the unpainted Fall Guy (Lee Majors):

BTW, "ROBOCAIN" is a super rare pre-painted vinyl figure from Kotobukiya. Scale is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1/35, I think. Most impressive small figure I´ve ever seen. The detail is mindblowing.
