Let's hope I'm not the only person here who collects Breyer Model Horses, and Peter Stones

I really gave up the "toy" horses for real ones. Any that I get now are all given to me. I save my money for my real live horses.

Several thousand!? My mom would have never let me do that, she'd always be making us pick them up off the floor!

mine stayed in the china cabinets... i was probably the only kid around who had all of mine in mint condition.. lol

never got dolls when I was little.. everything was horses for me

Ohh so cute!! I know! You could buy several bags of feed with the 1,200$ people are selling their models horses for.
And I guess since those are yours, I was going to ask, about how many acres (if any) do you need for a mini pony/donkey?

I was lucky to find an old Arabian and one of the Yellow Mount model in bay for my daughter to play with, not for display purposes. She was wonderful. Now its so hard to find models that has been used by children to play and don't want to pay full price for a new one that would end up being scratched, rubbed, even colored by my daughter's creativity!

Do you want some more??? Have boxes of them - all in need of a little girl to love them.

I love Breyer Horses! I have a few myself that I display and use for proportion models when I draw. There's only a few places nearby that sell Breyer, they mainly sell the super cheaply made models. I would love to grow my little collection, but since I still live/rely on parents they really don't like me using all my money on model horses (not that buying books is much better). I've always regretted not getting the Ruffian model when they were still making them.

I always remember wanting each model, never caring about how much money one cost.

I now control myself. I'm thinking of selling some to the tourists that walk around.

You just got me interested in finding more about mine. Turns out that they're pretty common; the rarest one is #154 Pony of the Americas, issued for a couple of years starting 1979. I was looking at the other ones for sale, though, and the things that paople do with them is pretty inspiring! They switch heads around, move legs into different positions, create realistic genetalia, and such amazing paint jobs! I might try to get my hands on a couple of Breyers that I'm not too attatched to and try out some stuff.
