More Auction Models

Breyer say they are done with auction model announcements so I do a nice blog post listing all the auction models and it's all neat and tidy and what do they do? Go and announce three more (well actually they only announced one and like shadow dropped the other two). So here are three more auction models and actually, probably the best batch we've seen so far.

So number one is incredible, this one is definitely going to go the highest of the auction, it is such an amazingly cool concept. This is a modified Nokota horse based on the eight legged horse of Norse legend Sleipnir (also pro tip if you want to increase your Instagram engagement accidentally write six instead of eight because you are knackered and had just woken up when you did it and you'll get soooo many comments correcting you 😂 )

This is Lot #21

Breyer also shadow dropped two more lots, they didn't announce these but updated a previous blog post with them. So I nearly missed A POLO PONY, can you imagine, me missing a Polo Pony? Unheard of.

First is Lot #2 which is a gorgeous customised Wixom with a new mane and tail done in chestnut

Then we have my absolute favourite which is a Smarty Jones Polo Pony in a gorgeous chestnut leopard spotted colour. This boy is just beautiful.

I think you'll agree that all three of these are absolutely gorgeous. A really nice selection.

BreyerFest Auction Models

We haven't seen all of the auction models this year yet as some won't be revealed until BreyerFest but here is a run down of the ones that have been announced in advance

Lot #1 - Chestnut Overo Smart Chic Olena

I really like the pattern on this one, it is a really lovely colour with lots of detail and so dramatic

Lot #2 - Chestnut Wixom

The modified mane and tail really suit her, it would be amazing to see this variation released as a regular run/special run at some point. She looks gorgeous with it and a nice shade of chestnut as well.

Lot #4 - Black Blanket Spotted Cantering Welsh Pony

This is one of my favourites, I love the colour on her and I do have a little bit of a soft spot for the CWP

Lot #5 - Roan Valegro

A nice colour on this model although would maybe like a little bit more depth to the coat

Lot #6 - Perlino Pinto Lady Phase

A really unusual colour and who doesn't love a good LP? Although I will always prefer the swishy tail variation

Lot #7 - Bay Pinto Family Arab Stallion

I am not a FAS fan but the colour is nice, not one for me though

Lot #9 - Black Sabino Goffert

What in the UK would traditionally be called blagdon this is a proper traditional cob colour for this mould which is nice

Lot #11 - Dun Sabino Geronimo

A really dramatic colour choice! Although he looks a bit like he has some sort of skin condition, which is kinda fun in a weird way

Lot #12 - Silver Bay Susecion & Le Fire

Nice colour on the mare but the foal looks incredibly similar to the Colour Crazy foals

Lot #13 - Buckskin Pinto Western Prancing Horse

I really love the colour on this guy and the sky blue matches it so perfectly. One of my favourites.

Lot #15 - Black Pinto Clock Horse

Whilst I like the colour on this guy he does remind me a lot of the regular run release, but it's still a very fun pattern

Lot #16 - Palomino Pinto Roxy

I like the mould and its a nice colour but at this point am I the only one whose getting a bit sick of all the pintos? Let's have a bit of variety!

Lot #17 - Blue Pinto Semi-Rearing Mustang

Another pinto! Well at least this one is blue? It's a very nice shade of blue.

Lot #18 - Leopard Spotted Polo Smarty

This was one of the two that were just shadow dropped later and I've added into this post, so any comments about favourites before this guy was released I take them back. This is by far my favourite model now, he is just stunning. I wish I was rich and allowed into America so I could go and buy him!

Lot #19 - Silver Dapple Croi

A nice colour (and not pinto) but very similar to the 2024 one, just a grey not a bay

Lot #20 - Buckskin Criollo

This one is my absolute favourite, he would be perfect for a polo performance set up. My only criticism is that the mane is plaited rather than him having a hog which is what you'd expect for a polo pony. If they'd done a full hog including the forelock he would be perfect

Lot #21 - Sleipnir Nokota

This will definitely be the highest selling model of this year's BreyerFest. With that and the Pegasus Silver below I think we could see some really high prices this year

Lot #22 - Pegasus Silver

Silver pegasuses are always popular and this is a really cool dramatic colour. He's apparently inspired by a Knob-Billed Duck and I'm definitely immature enough to find that funny.

Which is your favourite so far? I do feel like they have overdone the pintos a bit but it will be interesting to see what the missing ones are come BreyerFest

First Batch of Auction Models

 Breyer have announced the first batch of auction models for BreyerFest 2026 and we are off to a really good start!

So let's go through the first four models.

Lot #1 - Smart Chic Olena in Liver Chestnut Overo

This is my personal favourite of this batch. The colour was designed by Darynn Bednarczyk and is utterly gorgeous! I love the pattern and the liver chestnut coat colour is just beautiful

Lot #4 - Cantering Welsh Pony in Glossy Sun-Faded Black Blanket Spotted

This is my second favourite of the batch. The colour is just beautiful on this little girl and we just do not see enough Cantering Welsh Ponies. It's not a perfect mould but it's so cute (and of course it has plaits and we all know how I feel about a model with plaits). Designed by Christina Riley.

Lot #5 - Valegro in Dapple Bay Roan

This is my fourth choice from this batch (I wasn't just going in order)! I do like the colour on him but he doesn't strike me as much as the others do. I can see him being a good show horse though.

Lot #6 - Lady Phase in Pearl Double Dilute Tobiano Pinto

This is my third choice just because the colour is so unusual. I much prefer the swishy tail variation of Lady Phase but this girl is nice too. A classic mould but in a really unusual colour. Designed by Sommer Prosser.

Let me know your favourite from the first batch. You never know, might win the lottery before July and be able to get that Cantering Welsh Pony (clearly a good use of any lottery based winnings)

Catching up on Auction Models

Two weeks of flu and some other stuff going on over the last week that has seriously knocked me have meant that I haven't really been up to date with Blog posts or model horses or anything other than crying under a duvet with my squishmallows. So I am now working through and catching up with sharing everything that I have missed over the last few weeks, there will be a report on Hen Party Live at some point (preferably before the next two live shows) and also some BreyerFest updates :)

But we are going to start with the two Auction models that have been released for this year's BreyerFest so far.

First up we have my favourite, this gorgeous black leopard spotted Ashquar:

Second we have a stunning colour on this Pacer, not a fan of the mould but the colour is to die for!

Third we have another gorgeous colour but not a favourite mould of mine. A chestnut rabicano on the Justadream mould

Fourth is this very unusual Huckleberry Bey

And fifth we have a stunning chestnut sabino on the Morgan mould. This colour is just *chef's kiss*

Breyer Misty Test Run Set

 Last week Breyer listed this adorable little pair on their eBay account:

The cute test run Misty and Stormy have been done in a beautiful gold pinto colour. The auction was being run to raise money for Beebe Ranch.

For those who don't know Beebe Ranch is the museum and ranch based in the Chincoteague where Misty and Stormy lived.

The auction ended yesterday and reached a very impressive price of $12,875! These are an adorable pair and someone is going to be very happy to own them and that is a great price to be raised for the Ranch.
