October Collector Club newsletter and Christoff!

 Right down to the wire again, eh Breyer? Well, if you're a Collector Club member, check your email - this month's Collector Club newsletter is out again! There's a fun article about Halloween-themed models, a giveaway of Ratsputin and Salem, and another sneak peek! 







Ooh, it looks like they're reusing Benasque's color scheme for something! Let's hope I can get drawn for it this time, yes? Can't wait to see what it is! 

In other news, my Christoff came today - behold! 

















He matches with St. Moritz pretty well, I must say - though this guy has blue on the bottom of his hooves, while St. Moritz doesn't, which is a little jarring. 

















I'm definitely super-glad they reused St. Moritz's color, too! Hopefully this isn't the last time we see it. Dare I hope this means we'll get a new regular run release on this mold? It's a little weird that of six total releases, four have been decorators. He needs some more realistic colors to even the score! 

















Quality-wise, he's not too bad - he has some plastic goobers under his paint that weren't cleaned up very well, and his eyes are painted strangely - the black doesn't cover his whole eyeball. But other than that, he's nice! Let's hope I can cram him onto the shelves with his brethren!
