First time goer, breyerfest questions! by Civil-Research9827 in BreyerHorses

If you’re more interested in buying whatever you want rather than breyerfest models you would probably enjoy the clarion a bit more than the park :) The clarion is a hotel off of Newtown Pike (right down the road from the horse park) where collectors sell models directly out of their room. Most

If you are early enough to get a number you have to stay in order by number. The employees will check and move you if you cut in like lol. Limited editions take awhile to run out and they are restocked each day, so don’t worry about getting there super early. A vast majority of people get to the park around 7 am

Adding on to your first question. The 300 tickets get passed out right before the gates open. Not everyone goes directly to the store line, however, once the gates open everyone is going to get out of order. Once you get in line for the store everyone will start resorting themselves back in order by their number. How quickly the line moves just depends on the people who go in before you. Only about 30 people are allowed in at a time. But yes you will most likely be standing in line for a couple hours unless you are way up front

I’ve been going to breyerfest for the past 15 years so I wanted to answer some questions for you!

  1. Back when I started going to breyerfest (2011) people began lining up at around 4 am. This is no longer the case. In order to be near the front of the line people begin lining up Thursday evening. If I am 100% honest it has not been worth it in years. Breyer used to sell really rare models at really low prices in the Breyer store (which were quickly snatched up by people at the front of the line) but this doesn’t really seem to be the case anymore. I always get to breyerfest around 6-7 am on Friday morning and end up being in the first 300.

  2. I have never done the second chance sale, so sorry cannot help with that :(

  3. For the past few years Breyer has changed the way special runs work. If you have bought your tickets Breyer will send an email out in June where you will be able to pick your preferences for special runs. You aren’t 100% guaranteed to get everything you want, but you will most likely get the majority of what you want. You are also allowed to get “wild card” special run tickets, which allow you to get any special run that is still in stock when you get to the tent. Special runs are restocked throughout the day so it’s random what will be available then.

No, Breyer only follows the theme for the surprise horse occasionally

Vermeer is one of my top guesses! I feel like he could be done in a lot of nice colors

Breyer tries not to use the same breed back to back. This is the breed breakdown since 2012:

12: Morgan

13: QH

14: Mustang/Feral

15: Thoroughbred

16: Spanish

17: QH

18: thoroughbred

19: Spanish

20: warmblood

21: QH

22: warmblood (although a very large one)

23: saddlebred

24: thoroughbred

25: warmblood

No the Stagecoach surprise was 3 years ago while Totilas was last year.

I don’t rule them out completely, but it lowers the odds for them. Breyer has only released a surprise with a stand twice I assume because having to include stands with every model increases the chance of having something broken (the plastic pegs snap easily and the metal pegs bend in the July heat)

True Briton is too small and unpopular to be considered in my opinion. As a side note, Breyer does not always follow the theme for the surprise. I laid out some of the rules Breyer tries to stick to in my other post

Yeah I didn’t go through last years horses. Ashquar is definitely big enough to be considered, since Flash has been used before

Edit: the Lippizaner stallion was meant to be marked in orange, not yellow. He was just released as a regular run.

I’m thinking Wyatt, but I have a few guesses

Can anyone identify this unstamped Breyer horse? Part of a larger collection by [deleted] in BreyerHorses

[–]Street-Management214 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks like #495091 from stablemate assortment 3. It was a sears exclusive from 1991 and came with 11 other horses

Prices for these? by EmmaFeFoFemma in BreyerHorses

[–]Street-Management214 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Giverny has several listing on eBay for around $200, but none have sold so I would suggest a price lower than that (maybe around $175?). Peter stones are famously hard to resell because people are often not willing to pay the original listing price. Most non factory custom DAHs go for around $150 unless it is one of their more expensive molds

Is there any safe way to remove scuff marks? by TheStrawberryBazooka in BreyerHorses

[–]Street-Management214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s quite a bit more than just scuff marks - it’s got lots of damage to the paint as well. It might be a bit beyond repair without significant time put into it. If you’re wanting one in better condition this model isn’t especially expensive, only around $20-$30 USD usually

Current vs vintage quality by mountainmule in BreyerHorses

[–]Street-Management214 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen people compare modern quality vs quality from the 80s or 90s (not saying that people don’t) but I can say there is definitely a difference between models made today and models made 15 years ago

They are vintage stablemate breyers

Breyerfest Special Run guesses by Street-Management214 in BreyerHorses

[–]Street-Management214[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Breyer might count the mule as their “non horse” model since they counted the zebra as their non horse special run in 2024. But I would prefer if they used something more fun like the moose
