Disney Mulan action figures with horses
Following my blog post yesterday on my collection of Disney’s Mulan action figures, here are the rest of them posing with the magnificent and courageous steeds seen in the movie!
This is the Mulan action figure in her training attire and she came paired with Khan, her strong and bold horse. I tied a red ribbon on his tail to replicate the red cloth that is tied on his tail as seen in the movie. Mushu and Cri-Kee came with the single pack Mulan action figures that I posted about yesterday. Together, they all make up Mulan’s personal winning team in the movie!
Next we have Mulan’s commanding officer and love interest Captain Li Shang, riding on his impressive Imperial Stallion. Li Shang is also in his training attire and he came paired with this horse, which I have named “Feng”, meaning “wind” in Chinese. Feng’s tail was not painted grey like his mane, so I wrapped it with red ribbon to replicate his bound up tail as seen in the movie.
Here we have both Mulan and Li Shang riding on their respective horses. I think they look great riding side by side together. Well in the movie, I don’t recall seeing them riding their horses while in training attires. However these 2 action figures are more suited to ride on their horses because their legs are not inhibited by any armour.
However I still think that both Mulan and Li Shang look better posing with their horses while wearing their armour. The only thing is that they can’t ride their horses while in armour. Anyway here is Mulan, together with her inseparable animal ’sidekicks’ - Mushu, Cri-Kee and of course Khan!
This is Captain Li Shang in armour and posing with his horse “Feng”. I think they both look so smart standing together! I’m glad that the Mulan horses are made to scale with their riders, not like those horribly off-scale Barbie dolls and horse sets, where the dolls are obviously too big for their horses.
Now both Mulan and Li Shang in battle armour are standing with their respective horses. Their battle armour are well designed and they do resemble ancient Chinese armour. The Mulan horses are actually modelled after the Tang Dynasty-styled horse statues and paintings. Most of them back then had bound up tails like “Feng” here. Fortunately Khan still retains a nice flowing tail despite having a red cloth tied to it.
Last but not least, battle armour Mulan and Li Shang are seen here with their horses Khan and Feng respectively once more. This time, Mushu and Cki-Kee have decided to join in and they sneaked up from the back to take the photo together. If you have seen the straight-to-DVD-release Mulan movie sequel, Li Shang finally knows of Mushu’s existence and meets him too!

I’d like to add that the Mulan horses seen here are not really much of action figures. Only their tails can be ‘twisted’. Other than that, the horses have no other movable parts
i would like to know where have you purchased the horses plus the characters. i really like to send it as a gift this coming christmas to a very special friend. thanks…
Hi Zee,
I got them back in 1998 at my local dept stores when the movie was screened in the cinemas. These toys are no longer available here. Nevertheless, you can still find some of them on Amazon or ebay.
