Title: Give me Banditos!
Post by: greatescapegames on 03 July 2013, 07:47:39 PM

Looking for some resources/inspiration from the LAF'ers in reference to doing some Bandito figures: movies, tv, art, books, etc.


Thanks!

For movies try The Magnificent Seven with Yul Brenner.

The gang I've been waiting for! Some good inspiration in the game Red Dead Redemption. They may be more rebels and revolutionaries than banditos but I like the look still.

2nd Valdez is Coming, one of my favourite films (http://i46.tinypic.com/59wlxh.jpg)
If you did a Bob Valdez figure I'd bear your children  ;)

There's a excellent Mexican bandit in Hombre with Paul Newman, dunno who the actor is but he's a great character.

Yup, all those are on my list to rewatch.
Red Dead has a couple of good 'uns.

There's the Mexicans that Tuco uses to ambush Blondie in the hotel room in 'the good, the bad and the ugly' as well.

'Spurs'...   ;)

Gripping Beast do a Valdez figure in their Woodbine Range, he comes mounted and on foot. Great figure. I cant find him on the website but give them a call and they should be able to help.
