Two more Breyerfest Auction models have made their appearance on the Breyer Facebook page. The first was also a raffle model, and for the most part it seems people really enjoy it.
![Photo: Here’s lot 26 of the BreyerFest Live Auction! The Glossy Dapple Flaxen Chestnut Pinto on the Clydesdale Stallion mold (80). This is also the Saturday Raffle Model!](https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/t1.0-9/s526x395/10511366_10152467483191075_1587831734640617100_n.jpg)
6/28/14 announcement, also the raffle model.
But today's horse really seem to hit a home run in the 'like' category.

This is today's announcement. it is in the Salinero mold. I have known the Salinero mold to be very teetery, and so I don't own one yet. However, I have been eye balling Mistral Hojris (photo below) for some while.
He is retired, but a still available in some stores. Until today I had actually forgotten that he was retired!
Both the Salinero mold and the Totilas mold are very similar. Here is a fantastic comparison I found a few weeks back.

Have a great day, and stand the summer heat well!

Pretty horse models. My daughter collected the Breyer horses from a young age until she was in her teens. I don't even know how many are in boxes in the basement.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool! I really enjoy collecting. I don't know how long the "phase" will last, but I have been in the "phase" for eight years, and I am loving it!
ReplyDeleteEven though Salinero is a bit teetery, I would still recommend him. He's a very correct dressage horse (speaking from experience as a dressage rider) and he has a very sweet and expressive face. He just looks gentle. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have noticed the gentle face in him, and so that is why he is on the wishlist. Since I show my models, I do need a good dressage horse. I ride some dressage too, and I love it!
