Josey Wales
I hope this post is ok to share here. The Outlaw Josey Wales is one of my favorite westerns, and I wanted to show a new figure in my collection. I am blown away at the head sculpt.

Definitely in my top 5 westerns. #1 might have to go to Once Upon A Time In The West.

Lone Watie: Guess we ain't going to see that little Navajo girl again. Josey Wales: Nah, I guess not. I kinda liked her. But then, it's always like that. Lone Watie: Like what? Josey Wales: Whenever I get to likin' someone, they ain't around long. Lone Watie: I notice when you get to DISlikin' someone they ain't around for long neither.

Is that the Sideshow Collectibles version?

It is. I think it's one of the best they've done. I was kind of let down by Blondie, but this one is great.

One of my favorites. So much going on, back stories, people crossing paths. And with Chief Dan George. "Endeavor to persevere"

Chief Dan George was great as Lone Watie!
“I notice when you DON’T like somebody, they’re not around for long either!”
And my favorite, as he is wrestled down by the girl, “It’s a good thing you stopped me, Josey Wales, I mighta’ kilt her!”

Awesome - my favorite western and I was so tempted on this figure; I’ve got 30 or 40 6th scale figures (mostly Hot Toys, but a few Sideshow) but have pretty much stopped buying (out of room for display cases).
Congrats on picking it up!

This is the same situation I'm in. We recently moved so most of my collection is boxed up. No more room for display. This will most likely be my last 1/6 scale figure, so I'm glad it's one that means a lot to me.

They are such fun to collect - this one and Toshiro Mifune from Yojimbo/Sanjuro were incredibly tempting, but we also are moving soon (retiring and moving south next year) - it’s hard to buy a new one when I’m imagining boxing up and moving the ones I have.

Boxing them up was hard because I knew it would be a long time before any are displayed again. I've brought a few out, but the rest are in my closet, lol.

“Get down old woman. Hells coming for breakfast”. One of my all time favorite lines in any movie

There's another old saying, Senator: Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.

Is this 1:6 or 1:4?

u/Lonew0lf75 2d ago
1/6 scale

u/JustACasualFan 2d ago
Is that all Side Show, or is there any BGT there?

Where's Josey's face scar that he got from the attack at the beginning?

OJW was shown on my overseas flight to Korea in 1978. OJW was shown on the return flight in 1979!
