Dylan is here

Greetings, readers! Well, in the midst of our slow news month, my Dylan has finally arrived! Though I didn't order him until the day of the deadline, so his late arrival is really my fault. Drat! 

 

Despite my lack of fondness for his mold, he really is very pretty. If only they'd used a mold I collect! But hopefully I can sell him. I did eventually find a buyer for my Wallowa, so there's still hope. 

That's it for today. I hope we get some new news soon! 

Dylan is now available!

 Good news, Stablemates Club members - the next release, Dylan, is now available for purchase! 

The purchase deadline is 8/22, so we have plenty of time. I'm hoping to sell mine since I don't collect the mold, so hopefully I can find somebody by then! 

Breyerfest Closeups: Remaining Stablemates Club Releases

 Greetings, readers! Well, we've reached the last of our Breyerfest Closeups for this year! The thrilling conclusion is...the rest of the releases for the 2024 Stablemates Club! Behold! 

Here we have all the colors of Miguel, the gambler's choice for this year. I don't collect the Stablemate Donkey mold, so I don't need any of these for my own collection, but I do like the blue one.

The placements of the Stablemates may vary a little bit in these photos, because the floor shifted as I was taking photos of them and caused them to take an unfortunate tumble all over the table. 

They sure are cute, though. 

I'm a little surprised that none of them are glossy. You'd think the blue one would be, at least.

Next is Dylan. I'm guessing he's the August release? I don't think they'd release the gambler's choice this early, but who knows. 

He's pretty, and while his paint job is slightly better-executed than the very similar Phineas from a couple years ago. 

Next is the optional release for this year. I guess I only got one photos of these guys. Oh well - the color is nice, but I don't need the mare or the lying-down foal, so I hope I get the one I want. Insert grumble about gambler's choice stuff here.

Last is Augustus, the final release in this year's club. I like him! He's like a spicy little drafter.

I love his swishy tail! 

That's all I have for today. Let's hope we get more exciting Breyer news soon! 

Another Stablemates Club preview!

 Merry Christmas Eve, everyone! Good news tonight - we have another Stablemates Club preview! Say hello to Dylan!

Hmm, he looks like a miniature Anamar. But haven’t we pretty much already seen this color in the Club? Phineas was a very similar color, complete with poorly-executed star dapples. Phineas was also rather hard to resell afterward, and I suspect this one will be the same situation since I don’t collect the mold. On a more positive note, Breyer does need to do more practicing and experimenting if they want to improve, so let’s hope this leads to something better in the future!

Well, I think the only reveal we’re still waiting for is the gambler’s choice. Oh, and the optional model. Any speculation on which they’ll reveal first? The gambler’s choice would probably sell more memberships, so I’m going to hope for that.
