7. Find That Ever-Elusive Breed

Whether it’s a rare wood grain thoroughbred model or a complementary piece of livestock you simply haven’t been able to find, resolve to find it, whether it means begging or bartering! Post your needs here at Breyer Horse Talk and perhaps you can find someone to purchase from or swap with. You can also try eBay and local antique malls.

6. Modify One of Your Duplicates

Sure, you might be hanging on to your doubles for trade-ins, but why not have some fun with one of them? Customize it with adornments, jewels, costumes, whatever you like. Paint it and give it a whole new look. If you’re artistic, how about making into something truly unique—like a hippie tie-dye horse or a superhero horse? Read more

Get Your Breyer Horses Ready for Halloween

Obviously, altering your most prized and precious Breyer horses may not be something you wish to do—especially if they are rare and in good condition. And you certainly wouldn’t want to get anything on any new Breyer horse models that you have recently acquired.

However, if you’ve got some cheap ones—or multiples—around, you might want to decorate them just in time for Halloween (and other holidays!).

You could paint them festive orange and black colors, decorate them with fake blood or other gooey creations, and pose them in horrific scenarios. Take a rider or small doll, for example, and dress it in black—and take off its head! You have an instant homage to Sleepy Hollow.

Go for a scarier version of My Little Ponies by adding a scary emblem on your horse’s flanks. Instead of a heart, rainbow or whatever, try a skull, a bat, or a pumpkin. Read more

Here are a few of the products available from the Breyer horses website; these may be available in various other collectible stores as well. Read more
