    Johnny Weismuller as Tarzan

    Great thanks to Black Knight for salvaging and enlarging and painting the head and featuring another beautiful design by the Toyroom...... Tarzan.

    looks great, glad BK was able to save that head.

    It has been a long time since seeing the old Tarzan movies. I was tempted to suggest putting him on a more muscular body. But when you see those last couple shots where you can compare with the pic on the box, actually Weismuller is almost a dead ringer for the classic Mego physique, isn't he? Great job!

    Great work! BTW, what knife did you use for him?
