#Brave Erik

[chernobog13]

The Mighty Vikings - Brave Erik, and his father, Odin the Viking Chieftain - with their mounts.

Produced by Marx Toys (aka Louis Marx and Company) between 1970 and 1972, the figures were part of the Noble Knights and Mighty Vikings line.

These 1/6-scale figures each came with multiple weapons and helmets, and the horses came with an 11-piece saddle-and-tack set. The horses had articulated necks so that they could lower their heads to graze, and small wheels inside their hooves.

Like other Marx 1/6-scale action figures, these were made of solid plastic, so they were relatively heavy. One Viking and his horse together weighed 3 pounds 3 ounces.
