Well, guys, I'm surprised Breyer has decided to reveal the event stablemates first this year, but here they are. They are an exciting lineup and Breyer did the unique thing of making their names out of traditional driving terms. First up is Navigator. The Navigator is the person who stands behind the driver in a four horse hitch and "nagivates" the course. Breyer portrayed their Navigator on the American Saddlebred mold in a glossy chestnut tobiano. The next model is Wheeler. He is the horse that is in the pulling position closest to the wheels of the wagon. Breyer's version of a wheeler is a glossy dapple bay Dartmoor Pony on the new Haflinger mold. The Teamster is the name of the driver of a wagon being pulled by a team of drafters. Breyer has portrayed the teamster as a pearly golden champagne on the lightly used Irish Draught mold. Last, but not least since we still have the traditionals yet to be revealed, is Whip, or the driver of a coach or carriage. Breyer chose the sassy Gypsy Vanner mold for this, in a stunning bay roan sabino. This is by far my favorite of all the stablemates!
If you're interested in adding one (or more) of these little guys to your collection but won't be able to attend Breyerfest in person, they will be posted on my Breyerfest Pickups page once the traditional models have been revealed. Stay tuned! Comments are closed.
