The adventures of Robin Hood by Penguin was one of the first books i read as a child and i've loved the character ever since.
I've seen all the different movie and tv interpretations and i've enjoyed most of them for what they are.
But my personal favourites are Tv's Robin of Sherwood from the 80's and the little known The Legend of Robin Hood from the 70's.
As for the big screen versions..Robin and Marian from 1976 , Russell Crowes Robin Hood from 2010 and The adventures of Robin Hood from 1938 are my favourites.
Sadly the character gets little attention in the 1/6 scale figure world. PopToys are the only company that ventured into the world of Sherwood Forest and gave us a very nice Russell Crowe version, which i have.
Anyways i've been working on a few customs of my favourite Robins...
Michael Praed version from Robin of Sherwood. I hope to find a sculpt that better resembles Praed, but it works ok with the hood up
