Found it about two minutes from the end of the film:

That's quite a fluke that he actually does pick up a Springfield Trapdoor.

He was trying to help a downed Trooper and picked it up when the warrior charged him. I finally caved and ordered from Sideshow as I have some points. The likeness is close enough that I'll pose him to get the sculpt in it's best angle. I'll definitely want to mess with his neckerchief. It's too "full" and needs to drape better. Sam and the saddlebags aren't worth the extra to me, so went to the Standard.

The price was a real sticking point with this one until I saw CDUK had listed him.

Can't understand how they manage to sell him cheaper than Kaustic Plastik/Infinite Statue themselves.

CDUK is £225 including delivery, whereas KP/IP is £240 before delivery and £274 including it.

The Rabbit Hole goes much further my friends.
My tribute to the Western figures each wear a copper bracelet and carry the Winchester shell in the rear middle loop

CDUK.....Reviews not good. Following my Planet Figures experience I may not venture down this Rabbit Hole.

Really?

I used them quite a few times, but not since 2021.

Hopefully the service and contact has improved. I suppose it may be a case of Better the Devil you know. If I decide to go down this Rabbit Hole at least I shall not be alone.

John Wayne said he was in his prime while making Hondo 1953, I reckon he was. I enjoyed the picture. Looking carefully at his features and clothing it may prove to be a good figure from the Infinite Statue and Kaustic Plastik collaboration.
