      Could that be a Timmy figure from the Gabriel Lassie line. I heard he used a different body than Gabriels Lone Ranger line??

        Sorry, the blond figure is CRAIG Scout, a Cub Scout in the Steve Scout line of toys. This is confirmed by the Collectable Actions Figures ID book by Paris Manos.

        Bob and Dave (Cub) Scout were the African American figures.

        There was also Bill, a Caucasian mail away figure, very rare.

            Who hasn't done that? LOL
            I've got burned pretty much every time when I do that.
            I've gotten to the point that I suspect every ebay seller of deception. For example, like the ones where they have a RM Robin head (repro) and a mask that looks like it could be RM Robin mask, strewn about with a pile of garbage Mego parts. Also the pics are just enough out of focus or far enough away that you really can't tell for sure.
            They know someone who knows Megos will see that and bid like a madman thinking they are getting a hidden gem.
            They never actually call it out as real but they prominently place it in the pic so you can't miss it.

              Could "blondie" be the Dan Reid figure from the Gabriel Long Ranger line?

                    No. I have the Dan Reid figure and the one in question is not even close in head sculpt or body.

                      I completely agree. I also have a Dan Reid and could not agree more that the sculpt and body are not the same.

                          I did some research on this. There was Steve and Bob "Scout" which were the only two I ever saw as a kid. But apparently there was a brief year-two lineup and those figures all went by the last name "Cub", which consisted of Dave, Craig, and Bill. Interesting info. Thanks for the heads up Spacecrawler.

                              Found some nice shots on Ebay. The prices also give you some idea as to their value (MIB anyway). Here are the links. Good info...
