Sonsela-Mid States Distributing Model

Hello everyone!! Sorry (how many times will I say that?) that I haven't posted! I have been on vacation in Florida then I started school again. Yay.

On the other hand, I haven't bought many model horses this year. I don't have much room for them left, so I am only choosing the ones I really like and am quite selective about the model quality now.

Until I saw Sonsela.

Yeah.....she did have some flaws, but she was so pretty....forget about the quality control.



Sonsela is a 2015 Mid-States Distributing model. The swishy tail version of the Lady Phase molds, in a beautiful bay appaloosa blanket. She also has a star, small stripe, and socks on three of her legs. 

Next to my long tail Lady Phase version mare, Sheza Autumn Storm. 
Because this is a intricate appy pattern, I knew she would have flaws (true to Breyer's quality control..though it has gotten better. Kudos to them on that!). Still, a pattern like this is not typical of "normal" runs. 



I will get better pictures when I can...

 My Sonsela has some masking problems, a minor ear rub, and a weird bit of striped shading on her stomach on her left side (picture above). But besides that, she is beautiful, and I am so happy to have her!!

More posts to come soon.

  1. I love her! I did my best to find her, as I live in the mid states, but I couldn't get her. SO bummed. Maybe we could do a trade or pick up thing?

  2. You should be able to find her at Murdochs, Big R, Tractor Supply Company...etc. If you cannot find her, let me know and maybe we can do some sort of trade.

    1. Thanks, but I don't live by any of those stores, I do live in the mid states but in a suburban area. I did go to a TSC but they didn't have any breyers. Shoot me an email at Sydneyef@sbcglobal.net and we can work out an offer if you're interested.

  3. The color really reminds me of the old Breezing Dixie, she had the same really contrasty red bay with a blanket. But man, their appaloosa quality has come a long way since then!

    1. Tell me about it!!! The quality control and the overall colors are great compared to what they were. I am impressed with how Breyer has come with its models!
