    These were made from 1964 and into the early 1970s. They were highly detailed but made of medium grade plastic. Soft enough so they wouldn't break easily but hard enough to hold the details.
    The most interesting figure is the cowboy who has been shot. Sadly he has lost his pistol which sadly often broke off. As he is dropping his pistol it hung on by a very thin bit of plastic. Note the bullet hole in his back, an exit wound. Back in the 60s there tended to be a dead or wounded figure in every group.

      Had thes when I was a kid, they came in a slate grey colour. Same manufacturer did marvel super heroes I had(iron man, Thor, daredevil, capt.america). Sadly, all well played with and shared with others. Great memories.

      Thank you very much catburglar. I see the Marvel Super Hero ones around. They are pretty cool.
