The Lone Ranger is ready to ride again!

[HardyGirl]

Yeah, I think that was it. They also used Lincoln Logs to build more houses for the town.

Was it like this playset?

The box art for this toy line is phenominal.

They all look awesome!
I still have have Tonto from when I was a kid, but I turned the Lone Ranger into an army man using green felt-tips and stickers.

Not recently, I hope...

I've got an extensive collection of the Lone Ranger series. That set above is not part of the Gabriel town released for the figures, although it would be a cool one to customize in. Here are some of my figures...





















I have a bunch more. The play set is partially seen behind my Tex Dawson figure. These are what I had loaded to my photo bucket account. I'll have to load some more.

Great restoration on the figures!!! I too had a Lone Ranger and Tonto. We had the show in syndication locally and I was a fan, So when the figures came out it was an easy choice for that Christmas. Sadly I think Tonto was the first to go as he lost a hand then leg. The Lone Ranger followed Broken leg mostly. I think the last bit I had was one of the six shooters for the figures. I remember using it in an art project in art school. I think that s when it disappeared.

Your collection is awesome! I am on the hunt for a better Tonto, and any of the figures with boxes....not mib. You are correct. The town playset was from the Marx Ready Gang line. It's a pretty rare item. I have seen a catalog page that actually shows this town with the Gabriel LR figures. My figures spent a good bit of time having bar fights, robbing the bank, and busting out of jail.

Had LR, Silver, and Tonto. Put them through a lot when I was younger. LR became a Colonel Steve Austin knockoff when his mask bit it. Another Mego style line I'd like to see eventually.

I still have SMDM items, too...two version 1 Steve Austin's with the engine block. The one is in great shape and even has the original rubber/skin on the bionic arm. I'll have to take some pictures of them, too.

You've done a beautiful job cleaning these figures--they look new!

I have the (very solid!) Gabriel Dodge City playset, thanks to member Rob. It is an awesome European-released item, which I use with my Mego American West figures.

But I don't have LR figures yet...

How do LR figures compare with Matchbox Fighting Furies, price-wise? I collected a set of Furies last year & am curious.

[Myoldtoys]

From what I've seen prices look like this:
Lone Ranger - loose incomplete $15-25, complete no box $40, with box $60+, mib over $120. Hard to find loose and complete ones. Usually missing mask and often guns.
Tonto - prices are about the same but finding a decent one is harder. They never seem to have the headband and feather. The velour outfit is usually damaged.
Butch cavendish - doesn't seem in as high of demand. More often find him complete and good ones with boxes are around $50
I haven't been tracking the other figures.
The horses used are pretty cheap $20.

I have tried to stay away from this line for a long time. But, I love it. Still have my original LR and Tonto. I love the wooden European playsets. Here is that Ready Gang Town taken over by other LR knockoffs.

Great collections guys.
