If any of you have joined the Collector Club this year, keep an eye out on your mail for your Collector Club welcome letter. What your membership card looks like will depend upon which club you've joined. I joined both the Deluxe and the regular membership. They were pretty much the same except the pictures and the Deluxe also mentions the included stablemate at the bottom. Here is a side by side view. Also, if you joined the Premier Club this year, you should also get a welcome letter complete with a copy of the artist's sketch of the first horse, Fireheart, which should arrive before May when Fireheart is released to members to buy.
Before I finish out this post, I just want to say in regards to all the moping about Lafayette "not being limited enough" as Breyer has decided to do backorders to those who didn't get a chance to purchase him outright, honestly guys even with the backorders, Lafayette is still a limited edition. Limited editions aren't necessarily numbers, but it more or less means that it was only produced for a limited time. Whether they end up making 1,000 Lafayettes or 10,000 Lafayettes, he is still limited in that he was only offered to Collector Club members for a limited time. For example, although the 70th anniversary horses from last year were made in the thousands, they were still technically limited editions since they were only made for a year. People were saying for months "Breyer should make it fair for everyone to get one" and they did, yet there are those who think every model made for the Collector Club should be rare. Sorry guys but if you want ultra rare models of only 350ish made, you're going to have to enter the raffles and shovel out $150-$175 for a truly limited and rare model. Please cut Breyer some slack. Let's be thankful that they did this because they really didn't have to. Comments are closed.
