Custom Lone Ranger Figure

This is a custom Lone Ranger figure that i created using
a stock Gabriel 10" figure from the 70's.


In 1938 the Lone Ranger made his comic debut.
He wore a red shirt, blue pants, yellow kerchief and the
infamous white hat and mask. In the early 1940's his outfit
changed to red shirt, black pants, and black kerchief.
That is the iteration this figure is based on.
It started life with the standard light blue outfit based on
Clayton Moore's attire popularized in the 1950's TV series.
The outfit was faded and a little dingy, so i took some Rit dye
to it and gave it a new life. I sewed the black kerchief from a fabric
swatch to match the design of the original red version.
