I was challenged to a horseback sword fight last week, and I wanted to protect my favorite horse (chester) during the ordeal. Anyway, I ordered this expecting to be an actual chain-mail outfit for Chester, but what I received was a kids toy! I ended up buying 300 more, and took apart the small 2x2" chain mail pieces on the toy, and sewed them together to make an actual chain mail outfit for my horse. In the end, it functioned fairly well, but I didn't get to test it out. On the day of the event, I had forgotten it was a sword fight, and I brought a shotgun.

This is the horse I was talking about in my review for the ARMORED BLUE KNIGHT. I know that this horse and knight are not supposed to be together, but I couldn't find the armored horse. This hosre is a great parther for my knight because he fit well on this horse's saddle and no standing issues. I think this will be a great item for you, middle ages fans out there.

This is an excellent horse figure for Papo's Sir Lancelot figures, either the Blue or the Red one, though the Blue Lancelot looks best with the blue trim. This figure combination is appropriate for storytelling, playtime, or display (classroom or homeschool). [The Papp "Mercenary" figure will also seat on this horse fairly well.]

The chain-mail appearance is very striking. The figure stands well by itself, and it gives the appearance of being in motion. The quality figure is detailed and well-painted--ready for imagination and adventure when paired with a rider. The horse is so detailed you can even see his shoes!
