I didn't know Mike had his own action figure. He never tells us anything.

If toystalker has it for sale, maybe we should buy it and give it to mike so he can have custom of himself just like Meule did.

all kinding aside, excepted for the hair it kinda reminds of the Lone Ranger's El Lobo which was a foreign release by Marx Toys, thou the box and backer card are clearly of Gaberial Design. I ran across a post about it the other day.

hi drain
yeah that was my post about el lobo aswel

was asking a rough guide on price

i sold it for £25 in the end


so... so far all we got is that it looks like mike, anyone actually know what doll or what toy brand it may be from

That head belongs to Ringo from Marx's last great (but rare) cowboy line The Ready Gang. Basically 8", Mego sized and styled western figures. They did not come on Lone Ranger bodies, but on way better-Mego style bodies made by Marx.
