Articulated Plastic Horse
« on: Friday 18 February 2011, 08:37 pm »
This is a total long shot!

I have a totally plastic toy horse which stands about 10cm high. It's mainly white with black legs, mane and tail.

I got it as a present from a UK branch of Toys R Us in the late 90's.

Its legs are articulated from the top, and came with a removable saddle and bridle which I believe were made out of rubber.

I remember that there were a few different horses from a collection. All had the same articulation, possibly different poses.

I would like to know if anyone out there has even seen one! Like I say, it was just some budget 'pocket money' style toy, but I really loved it, and I lost mine long ago :( and would like to try and find them somewhere. I really don't know what company made them, or if the figure I had even had a name (I always called him Rodeo - not sure if I made that up or not!)

Can anyone help me? x

For a hilariously bad doodle of what I remember the horse to look like, see link below:

Thank you for the link!

I had a look on Mattel and it's mainly Barbie and Disney horses, I know mine wasn't either... however I did see one of my other old toy horses on there, it was a Barbie horse called Sprint, he could walk with batteries  ;D. Good times!

Thanks again :) x
