Back in the day, we were lucky to get one new Breyer sculpt a year. Now we are guaranteed at least three new Traditionals through the Premier Club and then all the wonderful new minis that are coming out as well.
I love my buttermilk welsh cob by Eva Rossiter that is galloping across my table right next to me! So much action and presence! Young me was always annoyed at how few models were in action poses, and that is no longer an problem in the Breyer line.
I’m looking forward to getting the new SMB mini drafter this year but also I am THRILLED TO DEATH that we are getting a shrinky plastic Zara next year, not just a shrink Proud Arabian Mare but a shrink of the true original in high fidelity.
I am one of the few who doesn’t really love buying models sight unseen but it’s wonderful to have these very high quality pieces so accessible.
What are you excited about, for December and for next year?
That’s the great part, right? All these new molds that we get, first in Premier Club, then as Breyerfest Special Runs, and then in the regular run line. You can decide which price point, paint job, and timeline that works.
This year they actually have the new welsh cob coming out in the regular run line a year earlier than usual, as Riptide the Chincoteague pony. That’s a nice surprise. I think he’s going to be super fun to paint.
