Breyer is really keeping the news bloggers busy lately, haha.
We got another Breyerfest Sneak peek. With... not much to go by, guessing-wise. They sure are making this difficult! It will supposedly be revealed later this week.
Most collectors were surprised to hear that there will be a Collector Club Appreciation event this month!
Starts June 1st at 1 PM EST.
They haven't revealed which regular run is being glossed yet, but I'm interested to know! Guess we'll find out tomorrow.
My model has his first few layers of paint, so I wanted to show y'all!
Clearly no where near ready to become a seal bay, but, we're getting there. I will be adding some darker paint tonight. I'm hoping to make a challenge update post at least once a week, from now on.
For those of you following along and painting your own model, how's it going?
I've been searching for this gal nonstop for about... three years. Well, ever since I got the model in my profile photo.
See, the model in my profile photo is probably my favorite model I own. Don't tell the other ponies! But, I was made aware that Stone made a weanling that looked exactly like him.

Needed
Her.
Searching every sales site that I knew, practically every day. Can you tell how much I wanted this horse?
Finally, I found her a couple of weeks ago. Bought her the second the seller got back to me. A few days later... a box appeared on the porch! Wrapped up in toilet paper, like a mummy. Haha. The seller packed her well, and I'm very grateful!
Well, here she is! In all her glory:
I'm so excited to finally own her. Don't they look fantastic together??
No one seems to be able to find anything about her. If you have any leads, please let me know! :)
Behold, the Open Show Reserve Champion prize!
Huh. Not sure how I feel about this guy. The mane and tail coloring doesn't suit the mold very well, in my opinion. He'd look fantastic next to the Premier Club model, Emerson, though!
I'm playing catch up, yet again. Apologies, everyone.
We got the Collector Club Newsletter early this month! A sneak peek was included:
Definitely a more vintage sculpt. Marabella seems to match really well. But, guess we'll have to wait till next month for the reveal!
Also, a sneak peak on the Breyerfest Blog!
It's gonna be hard to find a mold match for this one. The photo is cropped really weird, too. Wonder what's up with that. The reveal is supposedly today though! Interested to see who it is. Likely a raffle model.
Possible mid-year releases are starting to pop up on the internet.
Full Moon Rising, an OTTB.
Mojave, who appeared on Breyer's website for a short period of time. This is the best photo I have of him, unfortunately.
I might have to get this dude. Love his coloring. His pattern is pretty neat too.
Stay tuned for a 'New Arrivals' post from me sometime either today or tomorrow. And then, finally, a update post on my work in progress challenge model.
I haven't even gotten to start the challenge model yet. I plan to tomorrow, but there are just so many things going on right now that I don't have as much time for painting as I had thought.
I'll share what (more like who!) has been taking up a lot of my time...
Kittens! We adopted them about a week ago. Two adorable little boys. Introducing Ridley and Flynn!
After waiting for the absolute perfect condition to prime my bodies, I finally had the opportunity tonight.
14 models in total. One of these will be painted for the challenge! I have plans for a select few, one of which will be a decorator on the slightly customized Magnolia mold.
I'm very excited to start this challenge! I hope y'all are too. :)
We've both hinted on our individual blogs that there would be a collab coming soon. Well, here it is! And it involves you lovely folks. :D
SpottedDreamsStudio and I are going to be making a custom each, but painting them to be the color and pattern that you guys choose! All you need to do is fill out a quick and easy form that will be linked at the bottom of this post. You will have two weeks to vote (until Wednesday, May 17th, until 11:59 PM EST). After that, we will announce what color and pattern won, and start painting! Sounds fun, right?
Progress will be shared along the way on our blogs.
(We will choose a body we have available that we think fits the assigned color/pattern well- very likely in SM scale.)
You're also welcome to follow along with us, especially if you have a body that you can't decide what color to paint! :)
