My ever growing model collection of Traditional, Classics (now known as Freedom Series - mid 2019), Stablemates, Mini Whinnies, and Peter Stones! I update the same day I get models in the mail or share interesting news from Breyer about whatever com...
Name: Midas aka The Devil Rages On by VolBeat Breed: Morgan Color: Chestnut Splash Special Run: Collector's Club Lottery model Significance: Run of 250, hand painted in New Jersey!
While I was unfortunately not picked for him on my Collector's Club account, I won him at auction through Facebook! I got into quite an intense bid war with someone and the auction date was extended an extra day so for a while I wasn't sure I'd actually win but I spent up allll my luck I guess to add him to the herd. The reason Midas is SO special I because he's not handpainted over seas like most of Breyers models, he was painted at the New Jersey factory where all the Breyerfest Live Auction OOAK models are painted, which reflects his hefty price tag. His quality is meant to be unmatched compared to other Breyer Club models with the exception of Amberose who was also a Collector's Club Lottery model painted in New Jersey but he was a larger Run of 350 I believe. He has the perfect amount of gold shine to his coat to really pop and look realistic at the same time and his mapping... his mapping all around his markings are incredible especially around his eyes and kissy marks on his muzzle. This boy is just so freaking handsome I'm not sure what else to say about him other then he's perfect! A milestone in my collection for sure!

This makes me incredibly excited I joined the Club this year, having another sculpture by the artist of Geronimo and Dundee as they're two of my favorite Traditional molds, I'm very hopeful for another flashy stock horse! Zafirah I plan on reselling so far because she just doesn't seem to have that "it factor" for me. She's very pretty and her coloring is wonderful just not my thing as of now.
