Tractor Supply Ship to Store Option

Tractor Supply now has this year's holiday selection listed on the website! Here's a much better (and not-flipped) photo of Jacy:

 

Mmm, I really like him. Although that color would be really difficult to keep clean in real life. Ha!

Next, here's a photo of Lakota!


 

Like I said before, the color is nice, but I don't collect the mold, so  he won't be coming home with me.

Now, Tractor Supply appears to be doing pre-orders of these two guys (and everything else Breyer), so you can get them shipped directly to you if you want. Or, if you want to save on shipping, there's a ship-to-store option you can choose to have the model shipped to the store closest to you and then you pick it up. I decided to opt for the ship-to-store option this year because my husband works in the same town our nearest Tractor Supply is in, so I can have him pick it up. If you'd like to do the same, go to the main list of Breyer items and click "Add to Cart" under whichever item you want. On the next page you'll pick which store you want the item(s) to ship to, etc. Make sure you do this from the main list of Breyer items, because for whatever reason, the "Add to Cart" option disappears when you click on individual items. As for when these will be in stock, the last I heard was mid-September, so we don't have too much longer to wait. Good luck and happy ordering!

New special runs keep popping up!

So there are some new releases floating around on the Internet lately. I haven't seen an official announcement yet, but they're the TSC special runs for this year and another clearware special run for Back in the Saddle. I wonder if that's going to become a regular thing? Here's the clearware horse, Sugarmaple:


(image removed as apparently it wasn't authorized for release by Breyer)

This actually isn't the first time the Show Jumping Warmblood has been issued in clearware (apparently both Twilight Terror and Sunny are clearware). He's certainly interesting-looking. One of the alternate names for last year's Patriot was "Bomb Pop;" I wonder if this one should be called, "Camouflage," or something? Nevertheless, I ordered one, because it will be interesting to see what these look like in hand.

As for the Tractor Supply special runs, they're on Geronimo and the old Black Beauty mold:

 

They flipped the Geronimo's photo for the ad, which is kind of weird. But I'm going to have to pick one up - what I can see of that gray in the photo looks really nice! I won't need the Black Beauty, though, despite the fact that his color looks really nice. I'll definitely be haunting our local TSC stores until these beauties show up!
