BreyerFest 2017 May 22nd Sneak Peek

BreyerFest 2017 May 22nd Sneak Peek

BreyerFest 2017 Sneak Peak May 22nd

Instead of posting the winners for Acadia, Breyer posted another sneak peek for BreyerFest 2017! My guess is that this will be the BreyeFest Plushy that will be for sale in the Popup Tent. The BreyerFest 2015 plushy was Frenchie.

BreyerFest 2015 Frenchie Plushy $24.95

Here is what the BreyerFest Blog has to say about May 22nd’s Sneak Peak.

Our next clue is black and white, or rather pink and black in this case! Keep checking the Breyer Blog for the grand unveiling!

Just a friendly reminder that today is the last day for Breyer 2017 Collector’s Club Members to enter for the Web Special Run Acadia. I entered every day for this handsome horse and I’m crossing my fingers that I will be lucky enough to be drawn. I know many collector’s were excited about Acadia and wanted to remind everyone to enter today πŸ™‚ I have a bad habit of forgetting to enter the last day on these types of lotteries, so don’t be like me =D

On the off chance that you are drawn and don’t wish to purchase Acadia, I would love to purchase your Acadia slot from you πŸ™‚

Acadia winners will be drawn and notified by 5pm EDT on Monday, May 22, 2017. I recommend logging directly into your Breyer account and clicking on the Collector’s Club link to see if you have won. Breyer’s emails have a bad habit of not making it through spam filters or of being hidden from sight within the spam folder =D

Here is a link to my original blog post on the Breyer Web Special Run Acadia

Good luck to all who entered for Acadia!

Breyer Desi & Cassia – The OFFICIAL BreyerFest 2017 Unveiling

BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Prizes Desi and Cassie

We already made a sneak peek blog post of Desi and Cassia but here is some additional information on them. Desi and Cassie are the BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Grand and Reserve Champion prizes. The glossy prize models have not yet been announce for the open show and I have not heard any news on the prize models for the Children and Youth Shows. Does anyone have any information on these?

Desi – BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Reserve Champion Prize

Breyer Desi BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Reserve Champion Prize

Normally, I’m not a huge fan of the Breyer Gem Twist mold. However, I really like the color of Desi. He is a dark bay blanket appaloosa. His name is slang for ‘local’. Wouldn’t Desi look lovely on your LOCAL shelf? Teehee! Desi is the BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Reserve Champion Prize. Here is what the BreyerFest Blog has to say about Desi:

We’re excited to introduce all of you to Desi!

Desi is the BreyerFest Gateway to India Open Show Reserve Prize. This handsome fellow is a dark bay blanket appaloosa on the Gem Twist model (mold 495) which was sculpted by Kathleen Moody. He has detailed tri-colored eyes and a chalky white base coat.

Desi is just an Indian slang term for a local in a community and think Desi will make the perfect β€˜local’ in any collectors herd.

Best of luck to all of our showers!

Breyer Cassie BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Grand Champion PrizeBreyer Cassie BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Grand Champion PrizeCassia – BreyerFest 2017 Overall Grand Champion Prize

I’m head over heels for Cassia. I have grand dreams of winning a Cassia in the BreyerFest 2017 Open Show but we all know that the likelihood of this happening is slim to none =D He is the Breyer Cleveland Bay mold that was sculpted by Karen Gerhadt. Karen Gerhadt also sculpted the Premier Club Shannondell model who will be released at BreyerFest 2017 as Vahana, a Tent Special Run. Cassia is a really great mold in an even better color! He is the braided version and is a vibrant coppery chestnut frame overo with detailed eyes. Cassia’s name is derived from the name of the component used to make cinnamon.

Cassia is the BreyerFest 2017 Open Show Overall Grand Champion Prize. Typically, Breyer produces 1 extra of the Grand Champion model and offers it in the Live Auction. Here is what the BreyerFest Blog has to say about Cassia:

Introducing Cassia!

This handsome fellow is on the fan favorite braided Cleveland Bay mold which was sculpted by Karen Gerhardt and is mold #703. Cassia is a rich coppery chestnut frame overo with detailed tri-colored eyes.

This suave and spicy guy is the BreyerFest Gateway to India Open Show Grand Prize. Cassia gets his name from the substance that cinnamon is made from in case you were curious. Lucky winners we say!

Best of luck to all of our showers!

Here is what Breyer has to say about Acadia:

The Third Release in the America the Beautiful Series

A series of Breyer horses celebrating the places that make America so spectacular. From deep, dry canyons to soaring snow capped mountains, to rolling hills and plunging waterfalls, these beautiful horses will encourage you to explore. Enjoy a wide variety of beautiful horses celebrating our country’s amazingly diverse landscape. Each model to feature a custom designed logo on its belly!

Third in the Series: Acadia
Far north in Maine, in Acadia Park, 45 miles of carriage roads wind through pristine forest. Many visit during the lush summer months, and thousands more arrive when the nights turn crisp, to witness the spectacular autumn colors that appear like magic in this classic New England park. As fall fades into deepest winter, on rare nights, you can gaze upon the Northern Lights.

This bright, snappy Warmblood features a red chestnut coat with high white stockings, blaze, and a blue eye, that evokes the brilliant vibrance of this amazing national treasure! He is marked Acadia 2017 on his belly in gold.

Designed by Sommer Prosser

Your Price: $165.00

The first horse in the America the Beautiful series was Rainier, a gorgeous blue roan pinto Wintersong who was sadly plagued with a mane molding flaw.
