Question about CollectA horse sizes

I am not much of a horse collector, but a wild mustang, which was just announced for 2023, is one I would like. It's listed as 'Deluxe'. How would that compare with other horses? For example, I have the CollectA Mongolian horse, Mojo Thoroughbred, and Safari Przewalski's horse. Would it be roughly the same size (not scale) as these? Or noticeably bigger?

thanks

The Mustang is much bigger. It is 1:12 scale while other models you mentioned are between 1:20 and 1:16 scale. I'll try to find a comparison picture for you or maybe someone can provide it.

The deluxe series is 1:12 scale. This model here:

Which is the same mould, is listed is 24.5cm by 20.5 cm.

There used to be a model scale photo that floated around here that included CollectA's various sizes...

uggh; OK, if that's the case I won't be getting it. Thanks. I pic would be nice when convenient, but yeah, nearly half the scale means nearly twice as big!

Paige is right, we used to have a fantastic topic with comparisons on horse scales but pictures are gone unfortunately.
Though, we always have Toy Animal Wiki to rescue us.
In this picture we can see a standard Schleich (1st) and standard CollectA (2nd) compared to a Deluxe CollectA (4th) which is a Mustang.
Just for reference, the last one is a Breyer traditional which is 1/9 scale.
It is also important to notice that the Schleich model here represented features a large horse breed so it is larger than an average Schleich horse figure.

Which brand is the 3rd horse?

It is a Breyer classic. The same scale as CollectA Deluxe but please don't ask me which model because I have no idea... a Haflinger?

Thanks a lot, Roger! Nope, no 2023 CollectA mustang for me

You're welcome, Blaine.
Alternatively, you have a very decent CollectA Mustang on CollectA standard sized horse series.Regarding size, it is at the same scale as your Mongolian horse.
This color is particularly wild.

I believe the other Breyer is a 1/12 scale pony. The Collecta deluxe are the same scale and roughly the same size as the Breyer Classic/Freedom 1/12 regular size horses. [Edited to reflect that I initially thought this was one of the traditional 1/9 scale ponies before looking closer and finding the mold on google. It is a Classic scale.]

I think it is this [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] which is considered small to represent a Haflinger even if these horses are not large at all.

There's some scale/brand comparison photos toward the end of this blog post, if seeing some different moulds might help : [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
