The Many Faces of Johnny
The Many Faces of Chief Cherokee
Chief Cherokee lived during the entire run of Marx toys. It is possible that he has the highest number of different head molds. Chief's head was not used for other figures. But saw action in the UK, Mexico and Spain As this site is still a work in progress, I've avoided stating which version came when, but this listing is in what I believe was the order of production.
