New accessories for the Schleich horses :-)

Take a look at any place where second hand models are sold, and you will find Schleich riders, - these funny people with their legs sticking out like bent forks   
They come from the sets with bridels, saddles and blakets.
The plastic tack always bereak, and untill now, the only way to get new ones was to buy a new - expensive - set, which still left a surplus rider   

This year Schleich launced the different saddles/halters sold in handy wrapping .
Here are some examples, but there are many, - pony, western, jumping etc...

And isn't this  the dream for eveyone who has a model stable with horses ? The various things are also sold in smaller sets, like tou see on the first photo.

I predict these sets a great future !
The small sets are just over 2 Euros for saddle and collar, - about the same price as an icecream
This means that kids can get them for their pocket money. Or a nice, little gift when shopping with Granny .

The packing is probably god-sent for the shops, too. I could suspect that small animals may be sold this way also.
Much easier to handle, well protected from scratches, and not nearly as easy to hold in a little hand, or to put in a pocket  

I'd love to get some for my nieces and nephews to play with when they come and visit... Maybe sometime. Thank you for posting! And of course, congrats.

Susanne, thank you for the pictures! These little accessories are lovely, I was waiting for them to be released- I will order some in my next Amazon purchase to feed my animals with :) The bags of grain are especially precious, such detail on such a tiny figure! I hope your animals enjoy their delicious food!

The one dealer I visited on vacation a few weeks ago (and my favorite dealer too!) had a few of these, I think they're a great idea for kids to spend their allowance on. I do really like the big box of accessories, unfortunately the dealer didn't have that one.

Wow these little new accessories look really impressive   Very attractive details. These are a dream for kids who play with the models, and also for those who make displays   Well done Schleich ! And the prize and little packages are really a great idea.
As you say, Susanne, that would also be a great thing for their actual models. They arrive already in plastic bags, so I suppose the environment will not be that much more damaged already by a better packaging for all of their models.,,?

Good point

Finally - new Schleich product that is well-designed, well-made and nicely painted...   Great idea, Susanne, about selling animals in packages to avoid the damage caused by prying hands of young children (and neurotic parents!)...  

Thats so nice! Schleich's new boxes has a nice style and those equipments aren't bad    Congrats and thank you, Susanne!   

I bought a couple of these saddles some time ago:

They are very nice, a bit different though from the previous set saddles - e.g. they miss some silver parts, recreation saddle does not have the saddle pad painted white,
but all in all, very nice :)

Congrats!   I really like those small packages  

These are such a great idea. I've got one of the saddle sets, when I've got more spare cash I want a couple of the blanket and headcollar sets too.

Congrats!! I love the big pack of accesories

Well; as everybody knows Schleich made this 2014 some horses accessories. I think accessories aren't so popular so they decided put new exclusive horses in them.

I'm only interested in horses, maybe few riders o accessories to decorate my photographs, but I don't have the money and the space to buy a stable, for example (I read it costs 96 euro...) Maybe I'll be able to buy the new riders with exclusive horses and, could be, the shower but stables or Toys r us pack are forbidden for me

Do you know where can I find this horses alone?


Thank uuuuu

I won't be surprised if the Vanners are 2015 models, don't worry.

I agree with LeeAnn, - except for stuff that others payed for ( Logo-stuff) , Schleich never made a new mould as an SE only

Yes they did      ...I think..  The gladiator and the fire dragon with knight in 2013 is a mould SE.
So It they can make them like mould SE, and make different ones in 2015 or in different colours

I'm not sure what the definition of a 'special edition' is as we are using that term...  I assume that it does not include
biegefiguren or werbefiguren?

XD, Thank you Susanne,   but maybe you're right haha and I'm wrong with the 2015 horses    

  
Alvaro, I just hope that they are 2015-models, so I can get them   

Phil, - bendies are not SEs, - they were their standard range for many years.

But I am also in doubt about Werbefiguren ( what is that in English, btw ?).
And the set from Marbach contains a little Marbach stable-lad, but the horse is standard ...

Some picture for those who may not know what I am talking about :

Great examples shown in the photos, Susanne. They perfectly illustrate what we are talking about. I don't know what the correct definition of
'special edition' is. 'Werbefiguren' translates to "advertising figure" I believe. The koala set and the gardener/salesman (what exactly is he?) are good examples of these, but the new Marbacher set was to commemorate a single equestrian show, if memory serves.

The only reason I asked about 'biegefiguren' is because so many of them were produced as advertising figurines for specific companies/corporations...  

I collect stables to, but too buy two of then to get the specials??? I have to think about that.. I don't think the tinkers are 2015 models, they are exclusive and I have never seen a excluvise model with the regular horses..

Ik really like the new accesories
