1977 Marx Ready Gang Catalog

1977 Marx Ready Gang Catalog

In 1977, Marx Toys launched the Ready Gang a beautiful line of 9″ action figures from the old west with little to no back story (seriously are these guys outlaws for good guys?) and it quietly flopped in the market place.
It’s a shame as the figures are not only attractive but well made, nowadays I get an email every once in a while from people convinced they’ve found a rare Lone Ranger action figure and it’s always a figure from this well made but largely unknown series.

    What a neat line! These would be awesome to have. They'd also be well-positioned to serve as boyfriends for the shorter Charlie's Angels dolls in a diorama.

    Thanks for posting this!
