    That's a great custom. I too can hear that theme song in my head just looking at the figure. Perhaps you should also do a Maverick custom?

      Great custom. James Garner is an alumni of the University of Oklahoma, and I heard something about him having some retirement property somewhere in the Norman area now. He comes out from time to time for school and community events. The town recently named a street for him. Mego or LJN should have made this in the 70's!

      THANKS!

        James Garner has got to be the best action hero!

        Great custom job! Cool accesories. I loved The Rockford Files! The message at the beginning always changed. It was great. I think the show was probably ripped off by magnum, pi, but that's just me.

        Angel was probably a good Wacky Kramer.

        My wife has The Rockford Files on her want list, right under Star Trek TNG.

          Wonderful choice of character and a great sculpt, I'd love to see a Stuart Margolin.

            I loved the show and I love your custom. I wonder if Gay Toys makes a car that could be done up like the Firebird.

                  Thanks for the nice comments, Everyone. All are greatly appreciated.


                  garagesale,

                  Great photo! I came across that pic as I was printing out photos to use while sculpting. James Garner has apparently really supported Oklahoma and not forgotten his roots. Good for him. He seems like a nice guy in general.

                  johnmiic,

                  I mentioned that Maverick's in the works. I hope to have him done fairly soon. Thanks for the similar thinking!

                  MegoScott,

                  That's just crazy good and just plain crazy
                  LOL!!!!!!!
