This time of year Breyer usually releases the list to the public and vendors on what models will no longer be produced after the end of the year. This is called the retiring list. This helps to know what models to get before they are sold out as stock will not be replenished and could make great gifts for the holidays/Christmas this year. It's usually a fair amount that will be discontinued, so let's take a look and start planning our wishlists for the end of the year, and if we're lucky some that may last till next year.

Somewhat surprised by some, such as ATP Power, CollectA Arabian Stallion, Marc of Charm, Morganquest, Vet & Cowboy & Cowgirl dolls especially Austin the Cowboy, sun catcher sets. Some of these had just practically been added to the line up this year or last year like ATP Power and I think Morganquest, also the collectA Arabian. Also ATP Power and the Arabian collectA plus Marc of Charm were popular so I am somewhat surprised they are leaving. The Secretariat gold charm/50th anniversary set was supposed to end last year as that was the exact 50th anniversary but I think Breyer extended it due to popularity and demand. Everything else makes sense as they had been around for a while and I do think possibly overall sales and popularity play into what will be discontinued and what not. I know they have to make room for next year and change up selection for sales for themselves and dealers, also it sounds like tomorrow or possibly next Friday the celebration horse for next year will be announced. That was the buzz I saw going around the facebook groups I am apart of, someone said it was set in stone that the announcement is tomorrow and it came straight form Breyer but I didn't see anything on Breyer's accounts, blogs on their sites especially the Breyerfest blog nor pages of anyone who works for them/with them or at least affiliated with them in anyway so I don't know. Guess we'll wait and see and this time of year is usually when they announce so there's time at the beginning of next year to show all the other exclusive models before tickets go on sale which is also fairly early in the year.
