Breyer Model Horse Collectors???

Hey guys!! So I have a crazy obsession for collecting breyer model horses. I was wondering if anyone else on here collected breyers, too? default smiley :d
I have a couple congas but my favorite is my Forever Saige conga and Smart Jones!
default smiley ^)

I have a custom of my own horse too from Dan Van Customs! That is my all time favorite i think.

I need to restart my collection. I replace one. Theres a long thread about this on here. Just keep from high heat, fires and from being damaged. Their legs and ear tips are usually fragile.

Also, the liver chestnut's tail broke off, and so their tails are kinda fragile as well!

It would appear that the old Breyer topic has sadly been deleted...i meant to go there to try to revive it but i guess i'm too late.default smiley :$ There were many posts there over the years, what a shame!

I used to collect Traditionals a long time ago. Sadly they are boxed up and stored away at the moment as I just don't have the room.

My favourite was Dundee or O'Learys Irish Diamond.

I found the 50th anniversary model of Secretariat at a thrift store the other day and got him for half off! It was a really good find and a great add to my collection!

I just happened to see this forum and I to collect Bryer Horses . I started a tradition with my son where we get the Christmas Ornaments for our tree as well as the Holiday Horse of the season . He also has a few that he displays on his dresser . So far I have 5 years of the ornaments and 3 on the horses . I loved this last years collectable of the buckskin horse . I have a few of their draft horses as well as the riders . My son always wants to add to his collection every time he sees them in the store .

Haha I didn’t check this forum after. I meant the traditional size with the roses. His box was pretty beaten, but the model is perfect!

Awesome! I do love the gold too, with the roses! I made a little collection by getting the regular traditional Secretariat, the matching 50th anniversary gold traditional, and the 50th anniversary stablemate.default smiley (l) And i saw that they said every horse in the Kentucky Derby this year was a descendant of him! Wow, that's a true legacy!default smiley ^)

When I was a young child I'd always get Breyer horses for my birthdays or holidays. My mom also collected them as a child. Sadly we lost both hers and mine when we were moving between houses. After that we were both so heartbroken we stopped collecting. I think about them often, and would love to collect them again one day!

My first was Sandman the Famous Cowpony. I loved them to bits! It was given to me for my birthday, ontop of my mom redoing my bedroom to be "cowboy" themed. I can't remember the name of the second one I got, but it looked like Rainn from Spirit and it also came with a foal that looked identical.

I have 27 I think and love them! I can't choose a fav, but some that really stand out are: Smarty Jones (I saved up for five months for him only for the tack shop that had him to close for Covid, I managed to set up an appointment to pick him up and was super happy), Big Chex to Cash (he was given to me at birth by my mom's reining mentor, he sat on a shelf for eight years until I was old enough), and the old Secretariat (he's a standing model, really old, he was my mom's, but I love him)
