Greetings, readers! The last Breyerfest special run line model has been revealed - say hello to The Wanderer! Turns out it wasn't a previously-feathered mold after all!
And it'll be easy to remember his name, because he has his own theme song! Huzzah! From the blog:
As The Wanderer, he is depicted as a cloaked one-eyed old man, with a long grey beard, carrying his spear Gungnir, and accompanied by his two companion ravens, Hugin and Munin. A wizened old man who can see between the worlds and through time after having sacrificed one of his eyes to Mimir’s well to gain the wisdom of the runes.
...
This bold model, created on the popular Mustang Stallion mold, #801 sculpted by Rayvin Maddock, is decorated in a moody dapple purple/blue complete with a spear face marking, a magical right eye, and raven feathers in his mane and tail. The Wanderer will be available to VIP, All-Access, and Online Traditional Access ticket holders.
I love him! He looks really good in that color, though I feel like the feathers could stand out more. And why isn't he glossy? None of the special runs are glossy - the last time that happened was 1997, and prior to that year the special runs were keychains. What's going on?
In other news, it's time for the January Collector Club newsletter! Fashionably late, I guess. There's a cover story about bronze models, a glossy Bandera giveaway, and this sneak peek:
Easter plushie, I'm guessing? Hope we find out soon!
