I started with Stablemates (and I love them!), now I want MOAR!  
I had one Classic and one Traditional foal - I sold them mainly due to space issues, but now I kinda want the big ones again. I can't make up my mind completely, one second I'd may loads of money for them, the next second I'm like "meh, I prefer minis". 
Oh well, maybe I'll buy some, I can always sell them later

Could try some of those stablemates   ....

I have some Stable Mates too and I really love them. Though, in my oppinion, they're much nicer with light horses and your preference is more oriented to heavy horses. Maybe the one below is the most interesting of them. I hope to get this one, the Frisian and the Highland pony.

They are Addictive Once you get a few they just don't stop lol well in my case that how it happened :)
i have around 300 breyer/peter stone/hartland now. and that's only small in the breyer collecting world.

I think the bug will bite soon

Thank you for showing Roger   Beautiful draft ! I need to do some reseach before getting any.
Breyer certainly make some stunning light horses. Maybe heavy gems can be found too

I got bitten by the bug a long long time ago! I have almost as many model horses as I do toys. The combined total is around 2000. All sizes, all types - cellulose acetate, ceramics, soft rubbery plastics, hard brittle plastics, some factory resins, several made of glass, and one soap pony. (Carve the soap pony myself.)

Once you get bit by the bug, it's hard to stop buying more!

I just saw that MPV is showing the Midyear 2014 releases   

Here:Breyer Midyear 2014 MPV

I don't know if there is anything for me in this line.. But the Weathermont Ethan looks kind of nice   

Also the foals is scale 1:6   

I've been waiting forever for Harley D. Can't wait for him!

Brand new mold   I saw only he was made in Appaloosa colours from last year in limited edition or so   

It is nice the mold becomes available to the mortal collectors   
His colour is also very nice   
I assume he is a based on a real world horse, like most others   

Harley D is on the Latigo mold, which was released last year for the Premier Club. The mold is also being used for this year's Breyerfest, in grullo overo with a longer mane. His name is Platinum Star.

Yes, Harley D Zip is a real horse

Flexible and Weathermont Ethan are portraits as well :) Most Traditionals are.

  

Do you know what breed Ethan is? I can't really figure out the mold. Is it a recommendable mold?    

The real Weathermont Ethan is a Lippitt Morgan.
The mold (Kennebec Count) is a reworked version of Moody's resin Magnificence - the leg were repositioned but I've read the muscling is unchanged (at least left front shoulder) so it looks a bit weird. Personally I don't like this mould, I prefer the original resin version  It's much better detailed and seems more correct anatomically. It makes Kennebec Count look like poor cheap copy

Kennebec is okay IMO, I just don't like all the hair

Thank you very much Magda and LeeAnn for information and critique   

Magnificence looks really great. They could just have kept that mold?!   

I agree with LeeAnn. As we've discussed before, K. Moody is very generous with the hair   

It is probably a taste thing, but I think not it is very realistic for her sculpts
