If you want to know more about
any of the Hartland Western TV character figures, check out Mike Jackson's
site at www.cowboyparts.com
The pictures above came from his site and he has lots more including
Cheyenne, Maverick, Rifleman, Wyatt Earp, Roy Rogers, etc. etc. According
to the site info. the Johnny McKay figure is the rarest of the gunfighter
series which explains why they now sell for up to $1000 depending on condition.
The last one we saw on ebay went for $816. A couple of years ago
a Dan Troop [in the box] went for almost $900. Unfortunately, no
one in our group ever saved one from childhood. [Actually most of
the women in our group collected the horses as girls, not the human figures
which included sports figures and others marketed mostly to boys.]
According to Mike, the McKay figure is probably the rarest because it wasn't
very popular. We think maybe that could be because it looks very
little like Peter Brown and is wearing clothes nothing like the ones Peter
wore in Lawman. He never wore a black hat or a green shirt on the
show. [We know--the show was b&w but the comics etc have color
pics.] And unlike Cheyenne, he doesn't have a horse. Some of
the figures sold on ebay, like those below, have him in a cream hat but
according to Mike those hats tended to get switched around a lot when people
had more than one figure. Until we saw Mike's site, we would have
passed one up if we'd seen it at a garage sale because we wouldn't
have guessed it was supposed to be our favorite deputy..
TOY GUNS

This Lawman rifle in such great condition
and with an intact box and cover is a rare find. When we added this
to the page the auction was still going on. A bid of $200 didn't
meet the sellers reserve.
