Meet Zulu & Calista!!!

 Two new horses have been revealed today!! One of them was the sneak peak from the last newsletter. Let's take a look at them before a new release comes out tomorrow which I will talk about then.

Meet Zulu!!

"After the storm has blown through and the sun again appears in the
once-turbulent sky, you may be lucky enough to view a magical sight.
The moisture in the air catches and refracts the sun’s light
into a beautiful rainbow…or in our case, Zulu!
This festive fellow is simply ecstatic to dance through the clearing sky!
With his friendly expression and mane and tail flying behind him, you
can’t help but smile when you see him frolic past.
Zulu’s stunning metallic coat begins as fuchsia before morphing
into purple then teal, which really pop against his black stripes.
A high-gloss finish gives this radiant zebra the perfect finishing touch!"
Zulu is on the Newsworthy mold, last seen for this year's Breyerfest as Always Chipper aka "Chip", and in a cool toned rainbow with zebra stripes and a high gloss finish. He also has a touch of sparkle to his coat. Zulu is the fall deco limited edition model for this year. He will be available at select retailers and Breyer's official site as well. I like to try to support local, but I may have to get him online as lately releases like this have been coming in late at my local retailers near me. With that being said, that means I obviously love him!! Though since he isn't for the Wild Animal series, I guess we'll all still have to wait and see what they'll do for this year. Now on to the second release.

Meet Calista!!
"Her movement is lively, her ears are
pricked alert, and she's ready to perform
whatever task is asked of her. Calista's
name is Latin for 'most beautiful,'
and it fits her perfectly. This chestnut
sabino Warmblood mare highlights the
essence of the breed type: athleticism,
intelligence, and versatility. Warmbloods
are known for having heavier bone to
carry more muscle on their frame,
fueling their power, agility and overall
strength. Her strides cover the ground
with with ease, and her rider will feel like
they're floating on air.

From the sand of the arena to the grass-
lined trails, Calista and her Warmblood
counterparts offer a calm disposition and
a willingness to be the perfect mount
for their riders. Calista's elegance and charm
is sure to turn heads wherever she goes!"
Calista is on the Warmblood Mare, aka Giselle, mold in a flashy chestnut sabino coat. Her last full release was in 2020 as the surprise horse for that year's Breyerfest. Other than that she's had one test model that was sold as an OOAK entry in 2022 for the live auction that year for Breyerfest. I really love her, then again i have stated several times in the past I am a huge sucker for sporty chestnuts with lots of chrome/are flashy. She may not have flaxen as a cherry on top, but she still caught my eye and I hope to make her mine. She is the Brick & Mortar special for this year, meaning she will only be sold and picked up in person in a physical store. If anything, one can be reserved online at a local dealer that will have her in stock, but other than that selling her online is prohibited unless selling second hand. Brick & Mortar specials are made to help aid physical stores with all the online shopping and the fact most places have online and do most online sales vs in store even with a physical store front. She is also limited edition. I'm really gonna be on the lookout and pestering local businesses for if they'll get her in and if I can request to have one held and picked up in person.

That's it for now. More coming tomorrow. See y'all then!!
