Bandalero is finally ready to order!

 Good news, readers! If you're a Premier Club member, this year's club has reached its conclusion - Bandalero is ready to order! 

We have until 12/29 to complete our orders, so don't feel rushed. I did manage to sell my Bandalero, so he'll be on his way to his new owner soon. Don't forget that Enya, the new Stablemate for this year, will be included with Bandalero! 

Interestingly, the email says all of the Enya models will be matte. This year's JAH said they would be a 50/50 split between matte and glossy. Wonder what happened there? What are the odds the factory messed up and didn't gloss half of them like they were supposed to? Stranger things have happened, I guess. Still, the fewer gambler's choice releases, the better. My Enya is staying with the buyer of my Bandalero, so I'll have to satisfy myself with other people's photos of her, but I don't think I'm missing out on anything by selling her. 

Breyer is also doing a sweepstakes! 

Six lucky winners will receive one Freshly Baked blind bag and a plush Jingle. Sheesh, the Freshly Baked models must not have sold very well, or they made a ton of them. In any case, enter the sweepstakes here! Entries must be in by 12/15. 

In other other news, today was also the opening day for registrations for BreyerMidWest! Looks like the live show will be pretty popular - all tables sold out in about 11 minutes, including one half table to yours truly! I also snagged a glossy Marc of Charm and applied to volunteer at the event. Now I just have to decide if I'm going to drive or fly! I'm leaning toward driving at this stage, but who knows.
