First Breyer shipment is here

 The first shipment finally arrived.  



Athenian Lady is here.  The white spot on the top of her rump is intentional, by the way.  

Still waiting for the rest of the horses.  May be a while.

Breyerfest shipments

 The Breyerfest shipments are starting to happen.  They seem to be shipping everything separately so far.  I've got Percy the plush on the way, and the 4-piece Stablemate set in another shipment.  At least they aren't charging per shipment.

Breyerfest 2024 is done

 Breyerfest is over for the year.  


I got my two top picks for the Special Runs - the Surprise horse and the Fruit Stripe sport pony.  Can't wait for them to get here.  And the Breyer Store was in good shape this year - it went live on time, didn't crash, and I managed to do all my purchases in two orders and 15 minutes.  I also managed to resist the temptation to buy a second Wild Things in hopes of getting the green variation. 

I spent a few hours watching the seminars, especially Lesli Kathman's color genetics and Jenn Danza's repair class.  Then I watched a couple of workshops.  They're available online until the end of the month, so I'll need to watch them again and take more notes.

Breyerfest is coming!

 I've got a virtual ticket for Breyerfest again this year.  Tomorrow I'll find out which two Special Runs I get to buy.  I'm hoping for the fruit-stripe Fjord, and for the second one I'm open to anything.  Was wanting the pinto on the new rearing mold, but you had to get an in-person ticket to have a chance at that one.  Oh well.  

Just got an email from Breyer that the Celebration Horse has been shipped.  I hope they are planning to ship all our other purchases together again this year.
