Just a few odd/western/pulp I'd like see in mini form:

Marvel's Rawhide Kid:

The chinese guy with the pearl handled revolvers in Big Trouble in Little China. Specifically, him getting ready to draw.

I'm really in weird-west mode, and I think I need a chinese gang.

Rawhide Kid would be cool….but not in that pose. wink

Well done picking the other two. Those would be cool to see.

But that's the pose I want for the Rawhide kid! That miniseries was hysterical!

There are plenty of other not-______ minis out there. Seems like the Good the Bad and the Ugly characters are the only ones no one seems to mind making.

I'll add Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson from Rio Bravo too. Ricky needs to be playing his guitar.

Black Cavalier28 Aug 2009 12:41 p.m. PST

I'd love to see figures of the 3 Element guys, Storm, Lighnting & Rain for Big Trouble, of course with removable hats & spinning palm-blades.

richarDISNEY28 Aug 2009 12:59 p.m. PST

Oh, and Lash LaRue!

How about characters from Steven King's Gunslinger.

Tom Reed28 Aug 2009 1:12 p.m. PST

I want a mounted and dismounted figure for the Colonels daughter from She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, riding sidesaddle and wearing a cavalry jacket and kepi.

That Rawhide Kid series was pretty danged funny. I laughed myself silly in parts of it (especially when Hoss and Little Joe showed up because they were "running away from home" at their age!).

It would be hard to justify that pose on a game table, but I think I would buy it if it were available.

I've always wanted a classic Kid Colt figure.

Spartan29 Aug 2009 5:58 p.m. PST

I agree, I'd also like to see a Kid Colt figure as well as the Two-Gun Kid.

Personal logo mmitchell Sponsoring Member of TMP26 Sep 2009 8:47 p.m. PST

Two-Gun Kid would be a great addition!

I'd also like the Outlaw Kid, but I guess he'd be easy to do because he just has a bandanna pulled up over his face.

The Shadow26 Sep 2009 11:32 p.m. PST

Roy, Gene, and Hoppy and "The Three Mesquiteers". Add sidekicks like Gabby Hayes and Al "Fuzzy" St. John. Generic "B" western cowboys in ten gallon hats, two gun rigs, and fancy shirts and boots will do fine. (-:

Shriver26 Sep 2009 11:45 p.m. PST

some great old characters. somebody has got to make these.

HansTrier27 Sep 2009 3:03 a.m. PST

The Three Amigos!

HansTrier27 Sep 2009 3:19 a.m. PST

What I would really like to see is some modern native americans, maybe generic enough to fit most of the 20th century – not so much Wierd West perhaps, but usefull for pulp & horror, CoC for instance.

Characters should include armed/unarmed civilians, tribal police, shamans etc.

A good Annie Oakley!!

Personal logo piper909 Supporting Member of TMP27 Sep 2009 12:43 p.m. PST

I have been involved in some pulp/gangster games lately and they include a unit of female gangsters that ostensibly learned the art of shooting from one of Annie Oakley's workshops, as she held during her later years (not that she would knowingly teach outlaws; these tough bootlegging dames obviously put one over on her).

Mr Brightside27 Sep 2009 12:51 p.m. PST

Butch and Sundance ala Paul Newman and Robert Redford of course. Also John Wayne from the Shootist. The Mag 7. Josh Randall with his Mare's leg. The Sacketts. Shane.

Mr Brightside27 Sep 2009 12:54 p.m. PST

Terrement- Just saw your post. Actually Knuckleduster makes a Walter Brennan with a shotgun (not sawed-off but you could do that easily) in their Idiot Deputies set.

Their John Wesley Hardin would make a good Jack Palance piece in his role as Jack Wilson in Shane.

Also we need a Gary Cooper piece.

>Josh Randall with his Mare's leg<

A set of TV western heroes would be great!

Maverick, Paladin, Josh Randall, The Rifleman, etc.

Personal logo piper909 Supporting Member of TMP28 Sep 2009 10:52 a.m. PST

Pre-Wild West frontiersmen like the TV versions of Daniel Boone or Davy Crockett.

Mr Brightside28 Sep 2009 8:41 p.m. PST

Seconded.
