  • Notes
  • These horse radios are collectables. Abbotwares used the same basic radio in many different designs of the horses - such as: "Standing Horse", the most often seen version, while the "Rearing Horse & Cowboy" is seldom encountered. Even rare are "Prancing Horse & Cowgirl", "Lady Godiva", "Moose" and "Hula Dancer". All these models have the chassis number Z-477. Please use the right model when uploading collector prices because they differ greatly depending on the model.

    For this model and others, please look up this article and check the models present before creating an other. At the moment we do not distinguish the materials and sizes. This will come later when we can present more pictures. Now we include data in the caption - if well done.
