This year seems to be flying by. I didn't realize it was already time for the "Makin' A Splash" horse to be released. Not surprising it ended up being on the Duende mold, which is the newest of the molds used. My personal preference was Desatado but I decided to add Fabio (really Breyer... what's with the names this year?) to my herd anyways, as I had a bit of extra money thanks to BF going virtual. Admittedly I have more than enough red duns in my collection, and I was iffy with how orange they looked at BF last year when they were displayed in the Collector Club tent. Fabio looks more brown in the stock photo though so we'll see. Honestly Breyer has been getting all my money lately. I ordered a Crystalline for my own collection last week when she was first released. She arrived today, and is too stunning for words, so I just posted pictures instead. Honestly I didn't even realize Crystalline was a gemstone until I looked it up, so I guess Breyer is adding on to the gemstone series they did last year with Lightning Ridge and Bisbee. Flagship special run, Lionel, has also been released with Crystalline and Winx. Only brick-and-mortar stores are getting him in, and since I sell internet only right now, I won't be getting him. I'm probably going to pass on adding him to my personal collection simply because, as with Makin' A Splash, I don't like how orange he is. In addition to Crystalline, I will have a few Winx as well, and Ballynoe Castle will be up for pre-order in May. It will probably take about a week for Breyer to ship him to me after Breyerfest, and then he'll be shipped out to those who pre-ordered.
