The irony of finding it is that I’ve been thinking of selling off most of my Mini Whinnies collection. Partly because I haven’t had a chance to keep up on the newer releases but also because, to be honest, Mini Whinnies have been selling really well on eBay and I could really use that money.
But this BreyerFest Set is staying, regardless. It’s silly, self-referential, and it makes me smile every time I see it.
And here’s the kicker: you’ll never believe where I got it!
Saturday afternoon in the NPOD. For reals.
My schedule didn’t allow for any trips inside the store until then. I was hesitant at first to even go in, because there was still a line to get into the darn store. I figured everything that was worth getting was already gone at that point, including the Store Specials.
I had about 30-45 minutes to kill, so I figured it couldn’t hurt to look, correct?
Well, imagine my surprise when I just happened to wander in while they were actually putting out new goodies! So that part was truly no lie, this year at least.
I also managed to pick up a Bandit and Kohana Cougar and Wolf set, a 2002 QVC Gloss Bay Sherman Morgan/Justin Morgan, the two Store Specials, and a pretty Semi-Gloss example of the Classic Man o’ War Anniversary Reissue.
Not a bad haul for an impulsive late Saturday afternoon shopping spree.

What a fun set to display! I wish I would've seen the glossy Sherman in the NPOD, he would have come home with me. On a completely unrelated note, do you by chance have a post going over the saddle variations on the original Western Horse?
DEFINITELY Meta! :)
