    The Virginian James Drury

    I added another western hero to my collection, this is James Drury as the Virginian. This character had no name on the series, he was just called the Virginian or the Shilo Ranch foreman, this guy was cool.

    I got lucky and found a mego John Boy head with the cheek mole removed on ebay.

    I painted the hair black using apple barrel paint, it works really well on vinyl heads and dries fast, also painted the eyebrows.

    Original mego body, got the maroon red shirt from Dr. Mego, he just happened to have one along with the gun belt and six shooter.

    Black pants, black vest and black boots from classic tv toys, the hat was given to me from museum member
    PNGwynne Scott, he saves the day once again.

    *Note, for some reason the color of the shirt comes out brighter than it actually is, it’s darker in person.

        Looks good. I was never into westerns except for the Lone Ranger, and the occasional Bonanza or Gunsmoke. I never watched the Virginian, but from the picture, it looks just like him. The outfit is perfect, and I like the repaint on the head. Who'd have thought that John Boy could look like he means business?

          I used the blond version of him for Mordred with the vintage Super Knights.
