Well, yesterday's sneak peek has been revealed, and the Facebook guesser(s) were right - it's Big Ben! Meet Brahms:
This one is stunning, and an amazing example of what Breyer can mass-produce these days. Not so long ago this would have only been something you could only find at the live auction.

From the blog:
Born in 1833, German composer Johannes Brahms is often grouped with other famous composers Beethoven and Bach as one of the fathers of classical music. Premiering many of his own compositions, this virtuoso wrote for musicians from soloists to symphonies. Considered one of the masters of classical music, Brahms symphonies are known the world over.In celebration of BreyerFest: Prost!, our Brahms has been done on the Big Ben mold, #483, sculpted by Kathleen Moody in a flashy black leopard appaloosa finished with a shiny coat of gloss. Brahms' right front leg and shoulder feature a "mismark," which is a unique genetic anomaly that sometimes occurs in horses with appaloosa coloring.
Anyway, despite how pretty he is, I don't need to buy one. But here's our sneak peek for tomorrow:
Yet another model that could be pretty much anything, though I'll note that we haven't seen a regular run or Breyerfest appearance for Astrid yet. I guess we'll find out what it is tomorrow!
This guy is gorgeous!! Definitely want him.
