Gabriel

Brief History: This company was into dolls that were comic book and hero characters and so when they developed the Lone Ranger they had to have Silver.  The earliest would be dated 1974 but the company has been in operation longer than that.  They had a short success with this group of horses but again their specialty is dolls.

The horses are four in number with jointed legs and head and tail. They have a stand that the horses can be placed on to have them rearing.  Accessories are removable and interchangeable.   

Authors comments: Tonto and Lone Ranger ride,  Scout and Silver respectively.  These horses have many play features and are a delight to play with.  Fully poseable, with jointed head, tail, and legs.  The accessories included again are easy to lose but fairly durable.  There is a black horse for Butch Cavendish, “Smoke", and "Silver", for the Lone Ranger, and "Scout", is Tonto's mount. They used the same mold for the horses just varied the colors.

I fail to see why they stopped there.  There are a number of other horses and cowboys that could be a future attraction for the collector.  They did produce another horse, Banjo, a Palomino for Dan Reed to ride.  I'm told the later set is not as valued as the previous mentioned.
