**!Breyer Collectors Unite!** « Thread Started on Aug 12, 2007, 11:09am »
Alrighty then...I have been collecting Breyer horses since I was very little...so - I want to know if anyone else on the lovely Empire does the same or just has a few models or wants to start etc. This ickle club will be dedicated to all things Breyer - but first...you must post your application postie with the following information completed.
I will start off by posting mine.
Actual name:: Shaun or Zee
Horses/Wolves you play on Empire:: Pestie and Delirium
Age:: 18 - turning 19 in October
Gender:: Female (don't let the name fool yah)
How long have you been collecting?:: Since I was about 4
Which was your first Breyer if you can remember?::Pegasus - outstretched Morgan stallion
What is your most recent purchase to date?:: Barbaro
What is your most favorite model of all time (either owned or not)?:: Cigar
Which is your most treasured (owned) Breyer?:: Cigar - signed by John Lyons
What model holds the most meaning to you and why?:: Barbaro because it took me nearly 5 months to even locate one that was in my price range. I loved Barbaro as a racehorse and it means a lot to me to be able to have a piece of him in my life even though it is simply a scale model of his likeness. Plus, the model donates $10 to a Laminitis fund in Barbaro's name.
Which models are you most into collecting?:: Any of the raceing legends.
Name a few of your favored, owned Breyer:: Cigar, Barbaro, Smarty Jones, Afleet Alex, Seattle Slew, Ruffian (old mold), Seabiscuit, War Admiral, Dun Gotta Gun, Bucephalus, Misty and Stormy
Name a few you wish to own:: Ruffian (new mold), Secretariat, Black Tie Affair, Hollywood Dun It, any of the racing legends
Hell screams Delirium and I have walked through the vale of death under watch of the Closet's cover for 3 seasons in the mold of a Lusitano hession bred by Pestilence and Sublime but I am tied by none and have no heirs to call my own.

I feel happy now that I know there are a few more Breyer lovers out there as well as me Sometimes I wish I could have a pen pal who would exchange Breyer with me - but that's a dream...as well as my attending Breyerfest one day in the hopefully not too distant future...
But hey, Vengey! We share similarities in Seattle Slew and Danaway Tango! wee! I also have Llanarth True Briton in the same mold as Tango Prolley one of my most favorite molds to date - so beautiful! -pouts and crosses arms- But you have my Hollywood LUCKY BUM! -glares-
And Luminos - we share Afleet Alex, who has an AMAZING story and that's why I love that little boy
As for both of you (if I read correctly) wishing to own the Goffert model...he didn't please me too well...I like the original Friesian much, much better...the eyes are painted slightly wonky on the Goffert mold - making him appear more Thoroughbred than Friesian - to me anyway...but the movement in the old is beautiful.
As blood runs freely, they cry out Pestilence Hell hath had me for 12 years; my whole life Chained by the one named Sublime Czar I am known as, for the Closet has my control Mine Blood runs through the veins of my son Delirium
