Hello all, I'm new to the postings, but I've been trying my hand at some customizing. Does anyone recognize the CXR head that is attached? I know that the custom heads are not available but I'm hoping that at least I can get a name for the character and find one out there somewhere. I'm trying to build a Jim Rockford custom and I think there's a resemblance to James Garner here. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it greatly. Thanks, Sandy. P.S. My Jim West and Artie Gordon figures came out nicely... Attachments:

Is that not the Captain Maddox (Robert Conrad) head on the left?

Very nice! I would love to do that but my talents lie elsewhere! Now if I could just figure out where there lying!

Jim is in fact the head of Capt. Maddox and Sam Cobra's body. Research led to discover Marx originally intended to put out a James T. West but they didn't want to pay the licensing fees, so used the pieces elsewhere. I think Stewart's Attic has the info.

Sandy, The head in your original picture is a Marxman Bros./Circle X Ranch 'Nelson Miles'. I attached a color picture here of an unfinished head. We are all praying for Noah's rapid recovery - for his sake, as well as so we can see those great custom heads again. Nice job on your Wild Wild West partners. Lee Attachments:

So, to follow up; Does anyone have a CXR Nelson Miles head that they are interested in selling or know where I might find one? So far there's nothing on Ebay. Thanks!
