    "Hell, Doc, I've got lots of friends." "I don't."

    Even though it may not have been as historically accurate as Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp, Tombstone was certainly the more entertaining of the two films and my favorite of the two. The memorable and charismatic performances of Kurt Russel as Wyatt Earp and Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday contributed heavily to my fondness of the film and my desire to make Mego versions of Doc & Wyatt. And, now after over a year of collecting the components I have finally finished them. I made a second pair for a Christmas present for my mom as Tombstone is one of her all-time favorite movies as well.

    WYATT EARP:
    HEAD: Wade Wilson cast with my paints.
    BODY: CTVT
    TRENCH COAT, BOOTS & CLOTHES: CTVT
    HAT, HOLSTER BELT & PISTOL: Doc
    BADGE: LaserMego

    DOC HOLIDAY:
    HEAD: My shrink of a 12" Doc Holiday head I picked up on eBay last year with my paints.
    BODY: CTVT
    TRENCH COAT, BOOTS & CLOTHES: CTVT
    HAT, HOLSTER BELT & PISTOL: Doc
    TIE: 1/8" Polka Dot Ribbon from JoAnn's
    BADGE: LaserMego

    BOX: Designed and assembled by me.

    I thank you all for stopping by and taking a peek at these guys.

    Enjoy!

    John

          These are Great!! Two figures I have wanted since the movie came out. I saw the Wyatt head on eBay and was debated about picking it up. Love the box too. Doc needs a bloody handkerchief accessory.

            Exactly what he said.

              I agree that Tombstone was the better of the two films, as for your customs....spot on perfect.

                  Damn! I'm your huckleberry indeed!

                  This is one of my all time favorite westerns. The build up to the gunfight at the OK corral is the best on film.

                  Really nice pair of customs.
