You were limited to only ONE special run model per account and from the get go there were NO Pollocks, Uffingtons or Knossos... those were all sold out during Breyerfest. I'm glad the variations amongst the models made people buy the Gran Cavallos and Ansels otherwise I'm sure in a typical year the surprise would've sold out, so I snagged another surprise in hopes of getting the roan or champagne. I debated about the Marwari but I only like the long mane and tail version and I figured since Breyer was charging shipping this time around ($14.50 for my surprise) I could probably find the Marwari on the second hand market for close to that and be able to choose the version I wanted. The store specials are unlimited but from the get go there were NO wine glasses, mugs or tumblers nor did they have any team matte/glossy items left. Yet again those all sold out during the event. I went ahead and got Favrile, who I liked a lot better when I saw him in hand to go with my ever growing American Dream collection, and a matte version of Rheverence. For him I was torn between the glossy and matte, as the gloss really made his color pop, but I liked the soft shading of the matte. I guess we'll see when my glossies arrive in December which I like better. Comments are closed.
