Buffalos

Stock No. 2033

Only one Buffalo style was made for Marx.

They were sold in the US, Canada and Mexico. Recently, some silver plastic and black plastic re-casts have been made in Mexico.

In fact, I own a cast iron one that was made as a coin bank but is obviously a copy of the Marx buffalo... It just weighs 10 lbs!



US Buffalos

Made from a dark brown styrene plastic, The buffalo is painted with black shoulders and accents with white horns

Vintage Buffalos are worth about $25-40 loose and $50-$60 with box.

These bison have the Marx Stamp ...



Canadian Buffalos

Made and painted just as the US version. He comes in a Bilingual box

These are worth about the same as the US version (the Canadian box is considered more rare).





Mexican Buffalos

Made and painted just as the US version. The first edition made by Plastimarx under the "Lo Mejor Del Oest" [Best of the West] is a little more muted than the US version. These are more rare and so command a slight higher price.

These are worth about $30 loose and $50-$60 with box (the Mexican box is very rare).

The recast black or silver unpainted Mexican buffalos are ablut $15-$20 each.
