    Any way lets have a sound of for how many western fans we have here;
    Name your favorite western Actor,Film,TV,comic and western mego/mego like fig.

    Bonanza is my fav TV show
    Comic I'm a die hard Jonah Hex fan I make no bones about that
    My fav American western fig is a tie between Earp and wild bill...I can't choose had them both as a kid and they went everywhere with Kirk and Spock...

    I absolutely LOVE Westerns.

    Shane, High Noon, Red River, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, the Good/Bad/Ugly, Fistful of Dollars, The Wild Bunch, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Butch Cassidy and the Sunshine Kid, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, and on...and on...and on.

    My favorite Western film actors are John Wayne and Clint Eastwood.

    My favorite television Western stuff...Lonesome Dove.

    I can't pinpoint my absolute favorite Western...but it's probably Shane.

    Out of the newer Western flicks...I love Unforgiven, Tombstone, Dances with Wolves, Wyatt Earp (Kevin Costner), Open Range, 3:10 to Yuma (I love the original too), and Appaloosa.

    I love the Young Guns movies. They did a great job of pulling in all the myths surrounding Billy the Kid into one (well, two) packages. Good stuff.

    I'm a big western fan. Lonesome Dove (and I consider this a movie, even thought it was a mini-series just because of the caliber of actors) is probably my all time favorite. Love Tombstone. John Wayne has always been a favorite as well.

    The American West figures have become my favorite Mego line. I wish there were more. They are the only figures I've started to collect boxed.

    Love westerns, my DVD collection contains some open range masterpieces! Here are some of my favorites in no particular order.

    Favorite Actors - John Wayne, James Stewart, Gary Cooper, Clint Eastwood, Robert Mitchum, Charles Bronson & Henry Fonda

    Films – The Magnificent Seven, El Dorado, Winchester 73, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, High Noon, The Cowboys, The Good, Bad & Ugly, Chisum & The Sons of Katie Elder.

    Newer Films – Tombstone, Wyatt Earp, Young Guns, 3:10 to Yuma

    T.V. – The Riflemen (Chuck was awesome in that), Wild, Wild West, Bonanza.

    Even though John Wayne was your most rugged and commanding Cowboy, there was a silent strength that came through when James Stewart was on screen so I would say they were my all time favorites!
