    I was thinking of doing that with a custom MEGO LONE RANGER and TONTO and why not add comic book chacters also like JONAH HEX, TWO GUN KID, KID COLT

      I think that Hawaii Five-0 is an excellent idea.

      You might have to check with Jack Lord's estate, to see what they think of the idea.

      Most of the other cast members are long since dead, though. I heard that Harry Endo, who played Che Fong died a week ago.

      James MacArthur is still alive and kicking, though. Check with his people and see what they can get from him.

      It is too bad about the Bonanza line, that was one of my favorite shows when I was little.

        I always wanted to know how they burned that map the same way each time I used to watch it with my Pops...

        Cowboys in some fashion ARE coming from Cast-a-Way Toys!

          I have been plotting and planning my first customs and recently came to the conclusion that I want make some Comic Western stuff. I got a few ideas on the subject if you want some input.

                  BK already made a Hex head if you want one. I got one from him and it was excellent.

                      oh... then I guess we better scratch the Construction Worker, Biker and Indian Chief as well...

                      But seriously, we are big western fans at Cast-a-Way, and we have all the stuff made to make them... Hats, boots,Moccasins, single and double gunbelts, and nice new Colt... Once we get to that point it'll be "on" like "Donkey Kong"... "Jump the barrel, grab the hammer, save the girl..."

                            Anyone have pictures of the prototypes?

                            Yeah, Hawaii Five O is a great idea, I made my own custom McGarrett thinking so.

                                Not to change the subject, but I found that episode of the Twighlight Zone I was looking for. Probably because it's 4 in the morning and I'm really bored and determined.

                                Well talk about through the eyes of a child. I have a long term memory like a steel trap. But in some cases through the eyes of a child. I thought the same guy who played Festus (Ken Curtis) was in that episode I remembered of the Twighlight Zone. But I was wrong. I can see how a kid could think that though.

                                After doing some digging, I got the name and sure enough, if you want to find something on Youtube, just think of it.

                                Still Valley

                                Very twisted as are all twilight zones but much better than Hoss chasing leprechauns.
