I prefer the old Gypsy Vanners.default smiley ^). I have the old foal and stallion and I think they are so cutes.default smiley (l) The new Gyspsy Vanners aren´t so realistic.


Agreed.
I have the old Gypsy mare, and I love her so much. I reckon the new foal is quite nice, the old one was a little plasticy and not as pretty to match the parents. But the new parents look like the old foal XD Still pretty, but not as detailed.

That's a perfect way to put it, actually.

Any tips on which Schleich to bring to my lake house? I'm hoping to get some good beach pics as there is a beach with a creak and the lake next to it.

I'm thinking about the newish appy mare default smiley (l), the carmuge stallion, the hanoverian mare and probably the black appy safari.

Oh yeah and maybe I'll take one to Italy when I go in 3wksdefault smiley <:o)

If you have any ponies or horses that look kinda "wild" that could be good! And some running horses, that would look cool in the water.

Lucky you! I just have to ask, is that Meradith Michaels Beerbaum and Fibonachi in your avatar? Please correct me if I'm wrong, those guys look like them though. default smiley :)

I believe it is Laura Kraut. I just love the horse she's riding...it looks like a hunter even over those huge fences!!default smiley :)

I have a stable of around 100 Schleinch horses. I have approx. 200 others. I just wanna know how many other people have! default smiley xd

*Schleich, stupid iPad. default smiley :p
By Retired breeder, 30th April 2016 17:41:52
I have about 100 horses as well with some safari and papa

*papo
spell checkdefault smiley :@
By Retired breeder, 30th April 2016 20:10:56
I have 3 schleichs, 1 papo, 3 terra horses, and 2 breyers.
9 model horses. well done for me as a beginner.default smiley :)
By Retired breeder, 30th April 2016 21:58:31
I have 6 Schleich, and 8 Breyer, But I only use my Schleich. My Breyers are packed away safely on a shelf. lol. I enjoy working with Schlieich more because they're an easier scale. If I were to make a Breyer barn it'd have to be huge, whereas popsicle sticks are a perfect height for my Schliech.

Oh okay, cool! Yeah, it kinda does, those huge galumphing Warmbloods do that sometimes!

I currently have 9 Schleich horses, and I have a few mythical creatures that are Schleich and Safari that I use for decoration. I have an estimated 300ish Breyers though default smiley xd
By Retired breeder, 1st May 2016 06:50:35
i had 10 schleich but I gave one of my 2 papo horses to my sister so I have 11 model horses
I have around 50+ Schleich and 1 Papo... he looks like a Schleich though.

Wow, I have not been here in soooo long! I miss you guys! Out of the schleich faze for a bit, but will be back into it during the summer!

I went to TSC yesterday and got the paint foal and the Knabstrupper mare!
By Retired breeder, 4th May 2016 11:07:04
Both are really pretty! I named the mare Fionula (snowy owl from a book) and the "cow" colt Humboldt. It's sad because they don't have their breyer aisle anymore default smiley :( but maybe they'll get it back at Christmas. However all of the adult horses were $8, and the foals were $5, so I only got one of each. I learned that I really like the mustangs, but not the fjord mare. They also had a bunch of others that I really liked, but again, $8 each. The exclusive sets were there too, but I didn't look too hard at them, because they were like $25 each, and my dad was waiting for me, so I didn't want to spend forever.

Ps sorry I haven't posted in so long, for some reason I haven't been able to! Maybe the maintenance yesterday fixed that. I think it was something with mobile.

Another small piece of awesomeness: while I was standing at the cashier (lamely struggling to flatten out my money, of course default smiley :p) the girl who was my cashier and this other guy who worked there were talking. The guy must've been 25. So apparently, this full-grown man collects Schleich! He said that he had finished collecting the cows and was starting on horses. How awesome is that?! Schleich aren't just for little kids! And it made me feel less like they were judging me too default smiley (lol) I mean, I'm a 13-year-old girl buying small plastic horses...
By Retired breeder, 4th May 2016 11:38:53
I'm sorry, I know this is my fourth post in a row, but since we're counting horses, I think I have right around 30. I'm not sure if I included my 3 Terra when counting. But, I have 10 Schleich, not counting my donkey foal. The rest are safari default smiley xd
