A model figure representing a horse and rider and consisting basically of two pivotally interconnected parts, each of which is an integral unit, formed, for example, of moulded plastic material. In one embodiment of the invention one of the parts is constituted by the arms of the rider and the majority of the horse, apart from the shoulders and fore legs. The hind legs may be formed integrally with this part or they may be pivotally attached to it. The second part of the model in this embodiment consists of the shoulders of the horse and the whole of the rider, apart from the arms. The fore legs may be formed integrally with this second part or they may be pivotally attached thereto. In a second embodiment of the invention, the first part of the model consists of the body and arms of the rider, together with the majority of the horse, while the other part of the model consists of the rider's legs, together with the shoulders of the horse. Once again, the hind legs may be integral with the first part of the model or may be pivotally attached thereto and the fore legs may be integral with the second part of the model or may be pivotally attached thereto. In any embodiment in which the fore legs are pivotally attached, a mechanical linkage is preferably provided between the fore legs and the first part of the model, so that movement of the fore legs is controlled by relative movement of the first and second parts of the model.
A toy doll includes a substantially flat, rigid, free standing main body member and a substantially rigid clothing member which is detachably securable to the main body member to provide a simulated suit of clothing therefor. The clothing member includes a substantially flat front plate portion of substantially the same peripheral configuration as a portion of the main body member and a peripheral flange portion which is engageable with the side surfaces of the main body member for securing the clothing member thereto. The doll can be effectively utilized in combination with an animal member accessory by assembling the doll on the back of the animal member and the clothing member can be disassembled from the body member and assembled on a simulated clothing rack accessory.
