American Pharoah

Picture isn't great but LOOK!

There was so much talk about what mold it would be on but I bet none of you guessed this!

Yep it's a modified Ruffian, with man parts and a new tail...o and a cute little G2 Thoroughbred to go with him (although not sure if this is also modified to make it a boy :p)

And a Christmas ornament as well

Darker variation of the two types (there are both lighter and darker variation). Condition is good, no rubs or marks that I can see, but does have the usual Breyer related factory flaws.

Stunning model on the ever popular Latigo mold, this mold does very well at live shows. She is beautiful in every way, gold with dapples! What more could you want?

Model is hard to find in the UK and is a special run for Collector's Club members only from Breyer USA.

OFFERS END FRIDAY 17/07/2015 at 18.00!!

Starting Offer: £115

2nd class standard postage is free - can also send by courier or special delivery or 1st class. She can also be collected from Hot to Trot Live or Southern Roundup.

If offers go over £130 I will through in free Special Delivery postage.

Payment by PayPal, Cheque or Postal Order or cash on collection from either of the above live shows.

Payment must be made within 24 hours or the horse will pass to the second offer along.

Someone has a big bum :p

New Babies

I have new babies in my possession! Came today.

First up is this years Collectors Club Special Run - Talulah. Compared to last years she is so much better. Yes there are still an unbelievable number of factory flaws but she is very pretty and not rubbed or damaged (unlike Rajah)

Her name is Talulah and her show name is CRS On Parables



Because postage was so pricey just for her she came with friends to make it seem more worth while! At least that is my excuse.

First up are Glitter and Gem



CRS A Little Fable (Glitter)



CRS Poseidon (Gem)



And also El Blanco and Sedonna, wasn't sure where my wire cutters had disappeared to so they are staying in their box for now!



El Blanco is called CRS Abweisung and Sedonna is CRS The Bucket Rider

Black Jack

The latest model and book in the Canterwood Crest series (if you'd like us to get this model in please just get in touch)




Look at this picture! Even the generic Breyer pictures show the model as being flawed! They could have at least dusted it...
