Inspired to make a Lone Ranger and Tonto in the 1/9th scale. I've got a lot of ideas on what CTVT parts/costumes I want to use, but LR's head, mask, and hat, I'm not too sure about. Any suggestions?
Thanks T-Bolt.
My current considerations for CTVT head and hat:
Black rubber mask.
Buffalo Bill hat or White western cap?
Bruce, Clark or Peter head?
My concern is, which of these heads, do the mask and hat look best on?
Here's what I did - Scotty head, recut Doc Mego mask, I forget where I got the hat. LR really needed some laces added to his shirt. Tonto is a mix of AJ and AHI stuff.
I'm still piecing my Lone Ranger together. The consensus here is to go with a Scotty head. He looks the most like C. Moore when masked. This is whats holding me up. NO Scotty head to spare. I have the outfit mostly gathered and have two choices of hats. One is from Dave Lee and the other was suggested by HotFoot. It's a White felt craft hat found at Pat Catan's.
For the most part my Tonto outfit is from CTVT pictured above. But I chose to transplant a Bravestarr head just to be different. Maybe soon the choice will be a Johnny Depp head???

I dunno why CTVT doesn't go for this liscense, seems like they could mostly do it just with the catalog of stuff they already have.
I'm looking to use DrMego/CTVT parts for these customs. While the ST Scotty head sounds great, it's not important to me that they look like C. Moore & J. Silverheels. For Tonto, I'm considering a "Cochise" head.
While very interested in info and pics of DrMego/CTVT parts, I don't want to limit this thread. All parts and pieces are considered most helpful.
Still, making them from DrMego/CTVT pieces, would open doors for customizers who don't sculpt, paint or use hard to find vintage/original parts. Can't wait to use those killer window boxes The Toyroom's got!
I used a cast-away white cowboy hat.Made my own holsters but the ctvt double rig is pretty nice.Docmego also has a white cowboy hat that is identical to what I used for $3.

Doc Mego sells the Super Joe head which is the same head Gabriel used for Lone Ranger it's on his website and its what I used, also Mr C's shirt from Happy Days CTVT black western boots David Lee used to have the LR starter set that's what I used.
