Another new model being introduced this year is a Classic sized Horse & Rider gift set, "Reining."  From what I can make out of the blurry scan I found online, "Reining brings the spirit of the American West to the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games."  The male rider, dressed in Western gear, is reining his palomino American Quarter Horse in a dramatic sliding stop.

The mold being used for this set is none other than Hollywood Dun It, one of the most popular Classic molds produced in recent times.

I bought this horse on ebay, the description:
BROWN HORSE
BLACK MANE & TAIL
TWO WHITE SOCKS
TWO BLACK SOCKS
7" TALL
9" LONG
If you could please give advice to the breed, year it was made.
I named her Fox. She looked like a Missouri Fox Trotter or a Thoroughbred.
Good Luck

Walkabout Farms is one of the oldest and most extensive retailers of Breyer horses.  According to their site's About page, the owner's personal collection numbers over 3,000 Breyer models!  In addition to a physical store in Ohio, Walkabout Farms runs one of the most comprehensive online Breyer model stores available.

Therefore it may not be so surprising to learn that Walkabout Farms has commissioned an exclusive special edition of the Strapless model from Breyer, which they are currently offering as a pre-sale.  Many retailers commission special Breyers, from Walmart to Petco to Tractor Supply Center.  But so far as I know, this is the first case where a dedicated Breyer retailer has its own model for sale.

Some early news has snuck out about the new mid-year Breyer models, along with a few leaked scans of the marketing material.  Some of the biggest buzz centers on the black porcelain Esprit (pictured at left).  

Collectors are a little skeptical of this Esprit's flat coat color, which is solid black from stem to stern, not a white snip or blaze or stocking in sight.  This certainly marks a significant departure from Breyer's usual coloring policy - so significant that many people are speculating that this collectible Esprit is actually made of black porcelain.

Being made of black porcelain would definitely account for the solid color, and it would fit with the exclusive collectible nature of the model.  Black porcelain is far rarer and more expensive than regular white porcelain, and lends the model a more sculptural look and feel.

Looking for Breyer Horse Seattle Slew #474 new and in original box.

The famous and long-running Western television drama turns 25 this year which begs the question, how many Bonanza fans are also out there collecting Breyer horses?  I wonder if this isn't fixing to be one of the less successful crossovers in Breyer history, frankly.

I myself am old enough to have actually watched Bonanza, albeit only in re-runs.  The local television station aired it right after Star Trek (The Original Season, long before we had to qualify it with "TOS" - it was just plain old Star Trek then) every weekday afternoon.  And I do remember watching it half because of the horses (and half because I was too lazy to change the channel).  Oddly enough, this was at the age when my Breyer mania was at its height.   So maybe it isn't the worst choice for a crossover after all!

Breyer's 2010 Treasure Hunt models are a trio of draft horses, one for each of three seasons (Spring, Summer, and Fall).  As a gift for purchasing all three of the Treasure Hunt models, mail your UPC code to Breyer and they will send you a free fourth model, "Winter."

The model collecting community is going collectively gaga over Winter!  

The 2010 Treasure Hunt models use the popular Winter Song mold, a Shire stallion which was created by Kathleen Moody in 2007.  This mold has been re-issued many times since then, and has frequently been used as a special model for events like the BreyerFest Velvet Rope and Tent Special.

Spring: A chestnut, with four white stockings and a big white blaze.
Summer: A classic tobiano pinto.
Fall: A bay, with three white stockings and a white star.
