Breyer!
Yes!!!! Great idea for a topic! I love my Breyers, and I'm glad there are others here who enjoy them, too!
I don't know if I could narrow down a favorite, but two that come to mind are my first Breyer, Dan Patch (I think... I was really young when I got him, but I from checking photos, that's who he appears to be), or an old model of Sham, complete with wheat ear mark, that I spent way too much money on at an auction
|
im an avid stone and breyer collector, glad to see this topic come back to the equestrian center forum since the last one got deleted!
|
Yes...i was just gonna mention the old one! I also wanted to say that after that one was gone, we continued on sharing in the Schleich topic since they are all models. I have been posting my Breyers there if anyone wanted to check it out.
|
I'd have to say my favorite Breyer model is Obsidian, the unicorn. Most beautiful model in my opinion, close runner ups being Rain and Spirit from the original breyer model releases
|
I love Obsidian too...was very happy to add him to my collection!
|
I'm a bit of a sucker for the Othello mold too...and seeing what's coming next year in the collector's club has me drooling a bit, and hoping like crazy i can get ahold of him!
|
I'll post the first one! I got this pretty guy today!

Yesterday I just got the gorgeous mid year release Mojave, he’s a chestnut overo mustang stallion. I’d share a pic but my phone is being super weird at the moment and won’t let me
|
Ooo he’s pretty!! I love paints and pintos.

I have a small collection of customised stablemates, some I did myself & some collected for their uniqueness, I'm a fan of custom breyers � I haven't painted in a few years as I have no studio space at the moment.
My favourite that I customised is a stablemate draught which a turned into a black pegasus with mohair mane & tail, he has a magnet inserted in his hind foot & a custom base allowing him to stand on one hind foot
|
I have a bunch of breyers. Some if my faves include:
-gala. I managed to get the absolute last one available at breyerfest -a red roan Belgian that I have named doughnut -I splurged a while back and got like 20 different unicorns all at once in various sizes and they're all great. -the pronghorn antelope -a running black horse I've been etching into a paint -not technically a breyer but I found a nice whitetail buck that fits in well -and I like the looks of Mojave for a custom idea I have. He's going to get a shiny colorshift top coat that should still show his markings
|
And I almost forgot, I painted a paddock pal with rub n buff over black and he now has a really nice aged metal look. He also has glow in the dark paint in there but it doesn't show much
|
Anybody else have this beautiful guy? I got him and was so excited, since he was the first breyer I bought with my own money!!!
|
Sorry that you first see his tail!!!
|
Also, the next breyers I hopefully will get (christmas is coming y'all) are:
Full Moon Rising Clooney 51 Ruffian (the model, not the mold) Anthem Highlander Snowbird Hyacinth and Wisteria (these gals are sooooooo pretty!!)
|
Or, well, they are the ones I want most.......
|
Congrats! My Spectre is in the mail!
|
I have a small collection of Breyer which is mostly famous racehorses but I've been eying Full Moon Rising. He/She (I don't remember) is so beautiful I have zero space to put a new model but I might just have to get him.
|
Yes, I'm hoping to get that one too, if and when the bank account allows...so pretty!
|
Is anyone into making tack and accessories for the models? I love making halters and blankets.
