See, you post stuff like this, and suddenly I think, "Hmmm...I have the Ranger, Tonto, Silver, Scout, Cavendish and Dan Reid...I need some more..."

Unless you want to help me build on to my house, stop the insanity!

P.S. Don't stop. I eat this stuff up with a spoon. Love that brochure. Look at Cavendish's gun flying out of his hand!

Great post. This is a very under appreciated line. I think its because the genre isn't popular now. Only problem with those figures is they're hard to fix when they break. The parts don't come off like Mego or the 12 inch GI Joe bodies.

It looks like a few of those accessories were re-hashed from the Johnny West line (since in the UK, these were made by Marx toys). Really cool, though. My cousins had the Lone Ranger, Cavendish, and the Carson City set.

I would love to get my hands on that merchandising stand.....now that I know such a thing exists.
