Retractable string gimmick

Y'know what we do t' horse rustlers round these parts?

The retractable string gimmick involves a string that is wound up inside of a toy. The string can be pulled out manually, then it can be retracted with either a spring mechanism or gears. Retractable strings are used to simulate such things as winches and grappling hooks.
