This page will be updated as more models are revealed. It looks like Breyer is revealing one a day (minus weekends) so we should be seeing the full lineup by the end of January. Pickups for special runs are now being offered until sell out. I highly recommend reading my BREYERFEST PICKUP page prior to purchasing. This lists my complete policies, which you must agree to prior to purchasing, and how everything will work this year. I was originally going to offer the limited editions as paid in full only, however due to numerous responses, I have decided to offer them with your choice of either deposit or paid in full. Limited editions will be put on my website within 24 hours of being revealed by Breyer and the remaining special runs this Friday. Special RunsThe following models are available to either VIP or 3 Day in person ticket holders only. This means that these models are only available to those who will be attending Breyerfest in person. Landler is a beautiful dappled rose grey on the Totilas mold. He is named after a popular German dance, hence the mold choice, and is limited to 2,300 pieces. Elbe and Spree are this year's mare and foal set. We get one every other year. They are red bay tobianos on the new Firefly and Hawkeye molds. Definitely eye catching colors! Named after a German river, they are limited to 2,200 sets. Stein is a stunning grullo on the new Fireheart mold. A color I was hoping would eventually pop up on this mold, he is on my personal wish list and is one I'm expecting to be pretty popular. He is named after the German beer cups that are used for toasts. Stein means "stone" hence the grey color. The surprise, that's never revealed ahead of time, is the Rotating Draft Surprise. This is the only model that I won't be offering from Breyerfest until after the event. The speculation is that it will be a draft mold, although that seems too obvious to me, however if there is no draft in the special run lineup then it's possible it could be a draft mold. My top three speculation in that case would be Goffert, Othello or Shannondell since they haven't been used in a couple years as Breyerfest models. Georg will be used already this year as a Collector Club special run and Vermeer was a Breyerfest special run last year. If not a draft, I'm thinking Bobby Jo since she's "rotating" and since she made a return in 2021 as the Tractor Supply limited edition, Cirrus. Sure didn't see this one coming. The animal mold for this year is a bear (despite a good majority of the guesses being a German shepherd) in the form of Haribo brand gummy bears. The bears are not a gambler's choice but instead a three piece set and will come with special packaging rather than in a plastic bag like the other special runs. Breyer is really big on the food for the German theme this year. Marzipan, a must have for my personal collection since Wyatt is one of the molds I plan to conga. A beautiful palomino overo, she is sure to be the light of any collection. Blue horse collectors will love this year's deco! Meet Franz, inspired by German art and made on the Spirit mold. Brahms was another inspired by German art. He is a really unique leopard appaloosa with mottling, ghost spotting and a solid black leg on the Big Ben mold. He is topped in high gloss. This boy will surely be popular being the flashiest horse in the lineup. My daughter, a major Disney fan, would love this final special run reveal... Rapunzel. Breyer definitely went a little Stone-like on this one with the mane modification. It wouldn't surprise me if this one is the 50/50 mane variation split. Limited EditionsThese models were originally the store specials until Breyer changed the name last year. A return to the food theme, meet Black Forest, the cake version this time and the annual Classics sized limited edition. That mane and tail are rather... unique to say the least. He is limited to 3,000 pieces. Wittlesbach is the limited edition stablemate made for this year's Breyerfest theme. Anyone recognize the pattern? He looks very similar to Newmarket from Breyerfest 2018 except in stablemate size this time. He'd make a great mini me if you already have Newmarket! He is also on the new Arabian mold, so if you weren't part of the club last year but want the first obtainable on the mold, here it is. He is limited to 5,000 pieces. The Best of Breyerfest stablemate series is continuing this year with series 3. Apparently they are miniatures of favorites from Breyerfest 2016 and I'm super excited to own a mini Pele and Radler! I think these stablemate sets are what I look forward to most at Breyerfest anymore. I'll never be able to own the traditionals so the minis are the next best thing. The mold choices for these guys were pretty good in representing the originals. I think we all saw this coming for the plushie! A little pony in lederhosen was guessed by many, and that's exactly what Breyer did. I tell ya, these plushes get cuter and cuter each year to the point where I'm really considering a plushie collection. His name is Strudel and he's limited to 2,500 pieces with his number on his hoof. Lorelei is the crystal for this year's theme, surprisingly done on the Proud Arabian Mare mold. I will NOT be doing pickups for the crystal due to the fact that they are so fragile to risk breaking during shipping but here is what she is supposed to look like: Chardonnay is another German Riding Pony, just like the celebration horse. He is a solid chestnut with lots of chrome on the Flash mold. He is limited to 3,000 pieces. Chablis is a true German breed. A highly accomplished horse in himself, he is portrayed on the Idocus mold, he is a beautiful dappled bay Wurttemberger warmblood. He is limited to 3,000 pieces. Montanara is the representation of the true Black Forest Horse, a breed that all of us were expecting Breyer to represent for this theme, but the choice of mold was NOT expected. Since this horse is a portrait model of a real horse, it is possible that the owner chose the mold so please keep comments kind. We will see another color on Vermeer soon enough. I personally think this colorway looks great on this vintage mold. Limited to 3,000 pieces. Online Only ExclusivesThis is new, as far as exclusives go. These models are ONLY available to online ticket holders and will NOT be available at in person Breyerfest. For this reason, I will not be offering them on my website since you will be able to purchase them yourselves no matter where you live. The Rhendish draft is the first up. Reminding me more of a Belgian than a German Rhendish in color, he is a light chestnut with three pink hooves and one grey on the popular Georg mold. I think we all kind of expected to see this mold used somewhere for the German themed Breyerfest. They are making a hefty 5,000 of him so plenty to go around. Torlinie is a stablemate made specifically for online ticket holders only. He is the cutest soccer ball pony if I ever did see one and they decided to use the Clydesdale mold to go with the draft theme, since Germany is full of drafters and warmbloods.

I actually predicted they would use the old friesian for a black forest horse; and it's the only one so far that I'm definitely going to get : )

Ländler is the only one I really like so far. Fingers crossed I can snag a pickup and I get lucky that he’s drawn with my ticket lol.

I like Rapunzel. I hope they do NOT make her a split mane variation but I bet they do.
