Fury Prancer
The Fury Prancer was introduced in 1955 and is named in part for the equine star of the 1950s television series "Fury." Early models of the Fury Prancer have no mold marks. In 1960 Breyer added the round "Breyer Molding Co." mold stamp, and some may have the "B" stamp. The model has a molded-on bridle and breastcollar, most with gold metal chain reins and removable plastic Western saddle. It has no stallion parts. The Fury Prancer was sculpted by Chris Hess and is Breyer mold #P45.
