Performer: Stan Francis Appears in: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

King Moonracer is the ruler of the Island of Misfit Toys, featured in the Rankin/Bass Christmas television special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. He allows Rudolph, Hermey, and Yukon to stay there but insists they tell Santa about it so that the toys that inhabit it can find happy homes. He is a mixture of a lion and a bird, similar to the mythical creature, the Griffin.
