A day late, but I at least I am more on top of it than before. Let's take a look at some more of the auction lots as a fourth post has been released by Breyer. So let's get started and take a look at more of this year's auction lineup.
Lot #10:
Wixom
This big gal is done in lovely bay blanket appaloosa. From the picture, it looks like she has a very small star and snip and the tail bows are purple. She's a very nice appaloosa, nicest one I've seen in a while and I wish this was more of an official release as Wixom hasn't been used in a bit, last time was the start of the Birds of a Feather series as Puffin in 2021. Also there hasn't really been many appaloosas on this mold, only other OOAKs, she deserves a good full on appaloosa release after many pinto releases. Though this also takes another mold off my initial surprise horse guesses list, definitely need to make a new one soon.
Lot #11:
Connemara Mare
This girl is a glossy dapple dark bay. I like the shading, but the dapples do feel a little off. I've seen very light dapple son a dark bay, but not this light and it still flowed with the coloration of the horse. So she is the first I don't have to get too upset over if I never am able to somehow obtain in the future. Though there's another original surprise horse mold guess that bites the dust. So many mold are off that list now, though hopefully this means it can be narrowed down and take a guess.
Lot #12
Constantia/Standardbred Trotter Mare
This racy gal is in a beautiful chalky dapple grey. I absolutely love the shading on her, partly because this same type of coat was used for Anamar which he looked fantastic in. She's another I wish was a more obtainable release as Breyer has not done many grey Standardbreds, I know there aren't many in real life but the only grey Standardbreds I can think of them doing are limited editions or OOAKs sadly. She could be a nice contrast with Via Lattea from last year too. Also this mold was tentatively and at the very bottom of my Surprise Horse Guesses list so I don't mind her being taken off as she was used for last year's Breyerfest and she did just get a regular release this year too.
Lot #13
Rhenish German Draft/Georg
This handsome boy is "You Oughta Know" the Saturday Raffle model for Breyerfest this year. I will also use this as my overall opinion of him too. He is done in a very nice dapple bay sabino. I believe he is named after the song of the same name by Alanis Morrisette which I do like her music and other similar artists from that era and genre. I do plan on entering for him and hopefully winning him as I have barely come close to winning one. I don't recall entering for any in 2016 aside form the automatic early bird back when Breyer did that but because it was my first Breyerfest I didn't know what all entailed with that so I was either not chosen or was but you have to be present to win. So wish me luck in obtaining at least one of these.
Lot #14
Carrick/Walking Thoroughbred
This boy is done in a stunning chestnut sabino. I love this shade of copper chestnut on him, I think it's the same one they used for Justify's Breyer model. Also quick note, Breyer mostly does and seems to love doing OOAKs and other models in a sabino coat, probably because it's not too overly complicated to do like other pinto coat types. Anyways, he has a near bald face with speckling that goes up to it along with four tall stockings on all fours. His tail seems to have a slight flaxen tinge to it. He has a very cute pink nose, wish more sport horses were released on this mold. I'm still waiting for a grey to be released on this mold.
That's it for this post, will try to cover the rest tomorrow. Until next time!!
