Cancion is now available to Premier Club members. As I dreaded, he had to be released right before Breyerfest. I've decided against ordering this guy for myself and was up for pre-sale, however now that he has been released, I am asking full price. That said, if you order him through my website before July 7th, he'll be discounted $25 off of his eBay price (unless he sells there first) but after July 7th, his price will go up to $225 since I'd have to have paid for shipping to get him to me first. If you missed the opportunity to join the Premier Club for the holidays, or if you can't decide if you like matte or glossy better and want one of each, here is your second chance! Eclat was released last week so those of you who are also in the Stablemate Club who haven't purchased him yet will be able to combine shipping. I've already purchased my little guy, as I wanted him for my personal collection, however the final two revealed models will be available for purchase once they are released. Whether I keep the new mold are not will depend upon the color, which I may possibly find out at Breyerfest. Speaking of Breyerfest, to those who haven't yet paid for their Breyerfest special run invoices: please contact me if you are unable to pay by this coming Friday, June 23rd. At this time, I've sent all invoices to the original payment that you used when you paid your deposit. If that has changed, I'll need to know so I can send it where it needs to go and can get these ponies to their new homes. To those of you who have already paid, I thank you for making this an easy process :) UPDATED: Breyer did end up showing us some more live auction reveals, which I will share below. It was a sneaky reveal, hidden in their latest blog post which had absolutely nothing to do with the live auction models in the title, so many of you may have missed it, as I had. I'm happy to see Desatado being used in the live auction. I teetered between him and one of my top three choices, Forever Saige, as a possible "western" breed that could be used for the theme since there weren't any mustangs in the lineup, and since Fireheart has already been used twice now this year. He is on a beautiful liver chestnut overo with mapping. This model eliminates one of my top early guesses for the surprise, Vermeer. He is being made as a pearly reverse dapple blue roan as a live auction model this year so he won't be the surprise. However, can we ask Breyer to make a more obtainable horse in a reverse dapple color? I don't believe they've done so since Reverse Polarity way back from the Connoisseur series. This model eliminates fan favorite and social media early guess, Old Timer. I figured this guy wouldn't show up as the surprise since a vintage mold has only been used once, however I kind of was expecting him to be the vintage mold this year. I think Lady Phase and her foal surprised us in more than one way. I was hoping that Bobby Jo would make an appearance as the surprise, but alas there is always next year, depending upon the theme. There are still many more colorways they could use for this gal, as she's been pretty lightly used since her release in 2015. For the live auction model, she is being done on a blue roan pintaloosa. There is something about modern silver bay on a vintage mold that I just love, and I love it on Roy here.
If Breyer reveals all the live auction molds before the big event is the question, but I'm hoping they do, in case I have to change my guesses last minute. My guesses still remain the same so far: Hamilton (or the older American Saddlebred Stallion), Forever Saige and Smart Chic Olena with Ruffian in honorable mention.

I’m really hoping Hamilton is the surprise model too, but am wondering since Forever Saige is being used for the best customs as a prize is there still a chance she could be in the running for the surprise as well?

I was thinking show jumping warmblood, but forever saige is really looking like a strong possibility. Comments are closed.
