I took a chance at the Walmart in the road construction zone today… and success!
While I’m tempted to go for broke and complete my collection of the Warmblood mold – especially now that the Fairytale Friends releases, including Sage, are open to anyone, club member or not – I am still annoyed about the BreyerFest Arya release and I do not give up little grievances easily.
In other Stablemate news Chalice, the Bonus Stablemate for next year’s Deluxe Collector’s Club membership, is a replica of the model that broke the bank at the 2019 BreyerFest Benefit Auction, and he’s pretty spiffy. I originally thought that he’d be a chase piece for the 70th Anniversary Stablemates set, but this will also do. (And be much easier to acquire!)
But the model that’s got me all twitchy and bothered is this hot ham and cheese sandwich of a horse:
Glossy. Dappled. Black. Hamilton.
Pardon my French, but damn. Reeves, you ain’t playing!
Well actually, that I already knew, but the rest of you will see why in a few weeks.
That Hamilton Horse better be either a pre-order, or a run of 3000+ pieces, because if my recent interactions have been any indication, their beleaguered Customer Service Reps have been through enough in the past year and really deserve a break.
In fact, probably all deserve gift baskets. (Saturday is Sweetest Day in these parts…)

Ooh, that's the unicorn blind bag chase piece? That is an awesome little guy. I might have to try my luck, it just seems the current unicorns are so pastel compared to the wild colors of past runs. *Sigh* I regret giving the black w/purple Magnolia to my neice....
