Description

This vintage battery-operated toy set, titled Silverbat, was manufactured by Chuan Shin Toys in Taiwan under model numbers V-6209B and V-6209W. The set features a molded plastic superhero action figure dressed in a blue and black suit with a contrasting red cape, mounted on a grey horse with a synthetic blonde mane and tail. The toy is housed in its original multi-colored illustrated cardboard window box, which showcases the item’s mechanical prancing action and provides instructions for the three AA batteries required for operation. The packaging includes a built-in carrying handle and vibrant graphics typical of late 20th-century action toy marketing. Approximately 14.5 by 11.5 inches.

Condition: The toy appears complete and is well-preserved within the packaging. The original box displays visible shelf wear, including creasing and softening of the corners, most notably on the top flap. The internal electronics are untested, and the working condition is undetermined. All parts appear original to the set.
