True, it is a bit unusual that a mold that’s only been around since 2008 is now making its third appearance as a Store Special, but Bluegrass Bandit mold has become unusually popular over the past few years; I’ve been trying to add to my tiny (2 piece!) collection, but the prices keep getting in the way.
While it is also true that a Tennessee Walking Horse has little to do with the India theme, I suspect the real horse’s guest appearance at BreyerFest this year may be a not-so-subtle nudge in the effort to get the soring ban finally implemented.
Like the recent Christmas Horse Esprit Bayberry and Roses, Repeat the Beat’s tail lacks a white basecoat; because Samples are usually depicted in these early promotional pictures, it’s too early to tell if this is idiosyncratic to this particular Sample, or a detail that will make it into the final production pieces.
It may see a bit odd, but I do like it, since it adds a hint of translucency to the tail itself. But I’ll be fine with it, either way.

I would REALLY LIKE for the entire horse to be basecoated in the same pearly white as my Blue Velvet Connoisseur.
Hello! I am a little confused about all of the different base coats and what it means for a horse to be "chalky." I don't think I've ever seen one in person! Could you do a post about how to tell them apart? And what all of them mean? Thank you!!
And also...where can I find the Morning Glory Ranch Sampler? I picked up one at Breyerfest this year and I loved it!
How much is repeat the beat going to cost at Breyerfest?
