Sow i have been bad again and did buy presents for my self again..
my mother thinks i'm losing my mind because the collection is growing out the closet where they belong to stay IN!

I know what you mean. My mum is starting to dislike my obsession with collecting. She used to be enthusiastic and even brought me some models for my birthday, once she once slipped a baby chimpanzee into my lunchbox!  Now she is not happy with me   Yesterday she gave me a funny look when she handed my my okapi parcel because she had only just told me that it was time to stop collecting! No way  
I actually try to sneak to the lettebox before her because I don't want her to find them before I do!!!  And more are due to arrive!!!

Some parents think our collecting is a kids' thing, but eventually she will realize you are serious about it. Have you shown her some of the photos you've taken? I think that would help her understand that you are collecting, not buying toys.

I showed her my photos but she wasn't particularly interested. She just wants me to spend my money on clothes but I'M not interested. We both have different ideas about money:) I'm learning just to stop talking about my collection and I don't tell her when I buy a figure from the toystore anymore. It is a pity that no one at my home is interested and I can't show them my new figures with out them saying "another one!"

Congratulations again!!

Excelent new additions! I like all this movement in CollectA horses. Their manufacturing is often their less interesting point.
You have the monumental Shire mare, I think she, the Queen, can be a good friend of Princess, you have the two sides of toy industry, the replica and the character.
Golden Arabian is very sensual and preserves the nobble looking of that ancient breed. Congratulations!

Schleichgirl this is my life XD

Haha omg i really am happy that i'm not the only one with this ''problem''

Just last week for example... i bouth a big lot of the last 2014 series that i needed total; 110,-
My mother was there before i could open the door for the courier that came to drop the ''box''
My mother almost died when she herd the total spend ...

my stepsister bought clotes... for a total of €421 in one monts ... and she dind't even say that was it all ... its like that every mont... And then my mother go's like; Clotes you can where... your plastic horses are only eating dust in the closet .....

That make my cry almost every time ...

My collection will be growing as long as a have the money to buy the nice bautifull things that make my happy :D:D:D

Every one; many thanks for the the nice words, they make my day every day !

I know that so well! My mother can buy three shoes for my sister in one shopping trip but when I ask a horse, toyhorse, 7 euros is suddenly a huge sum....!
Haha wow, that was a lot! Have you already shown them here? Stay strong with your collection and don't let them to stop collecting xDD

Best luck with Rengar

6 legs? Ha, that's not rare anymore, I have some ants at home and they have a lot of sisters with 6 legs too!!! Well, if you feel like that just because your sister have 6 legs, I wonder how it is with a centiped brother.
I am kidding but seriously, sisters and brothers are the most precious of our lifes and I am sure your sister deserves as much these "3 shoes" as you deserved that huge box of horses from your Mother. Sometimes, daughters and sons do really forget sometimes what their mothers deserve too.

Thanks, I think I am just a silly croc but that's probably almost the same.

I love your new models!

Where did you buy the lunar horse? and how much it cost?

Well, she's just a regular Finnish girl... haha
Yes, you're right - even if life with them isn't always so glorious we love them

First up:
I'm sorry i did not post for a really long long time...
Bizzy bizzy bee is a understatement i think

persefone : i bought it on a Dutch ebay like site called ''marktplaats'' it cost 34,99 (what a price)
It was allready second hand but in mint condition.

Sow now this is called new additions i have lots en lots of new one
Nothing you dind;t see already but again i will give my own opinion about it
I have a lot of pictures to so lets get started;

First up is a winner for me :
The new horses with riders sets; every body has shown them with the tack but i immidiatly took it of ... I don't now but i don't like the big not fitting schleich tack
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Form left to right the quarter horse ( i think) The i don't know breed and the lippizaner (i think)

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
If it wasn't for the earscap thingy i really think this is the best model of 2014 for me
The pose is original and it suits the model i raelly think its a nice girl (yes i was shooking for me to find out it was a mare ...

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I really think if the new white (i think lippi) Was a stallion they would me a perfect couple but know i think they will be very good friends gossiping about the new stallion that maybe will came in 2016 ore so ? Who knows

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The Quarter mare (yes also a girl) Is not that good... She is really poor in musles and her face is not that great
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I will see her as a young horse that needs a lot of training before she will be great.
The stallion on the other hand sees something in her i miss i think (he looks messeraised)
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
And the last one i don't know what to make of this one.. again a mare ... is she a haflinger ore a palomino ... shame she can not tel me her self

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I think of her like a modern haflinger now.. A bigger more atletic typ then the old fashioned haflinger.

Next up new to my growing herd of schleich doubles: the muller SE
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I really love the new color on the trakhener mare better then the original color...
She riminds me of my own pony (r.i.p. Inka (not a trakhener but stil beautifull))
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Nothing to say about this one still Diva uglyness i hate the model ...  

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I really don't know why this change is happend in schleich land... What in the name of horses makes it okey to charge sutch a big spend on a mane color change ... WHY (head againts wall)
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Only upsite on this story is that the new camarque can yoin his ugly wife from past years muller SE

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Now this is a good change i think i like the model and the new color is a good choise.
But whait .. i look so formiliure ... why is that ...
O maybe because its not new at al .. SCHLEICh .....
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
(not really a bad think but .. not that original anymore)

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
So here is a girl riding a tiger to get rite of al the bad schleich information i give you al up their ^

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Moving on to the washing stable stallion.
I really like him (the mold) and i think his new color is great. I gave hem a girl friend because i felt they where ment for eatch other and i think their in love (L)
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

i only think i would say is again a big $%^&# From schleich is ...:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
His cute bum is all black... i can not even think of a rare color mutation that makes this possible...

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Next up the bayala horse form the rainbow range... I adore this horse...
She is so big with her flashy rainbow whings and horn on ther forhead... OMG
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Again love the big wings
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The rearing horse i don;t like that mutch .. The head really looks a bit off... And the color .. those dapples i don't know .. what was schleich thinking? The rainbow mane are okey just because of the ''biggyness'' it brings with them like massive hair waiving in the wind .. yeah ,,,
And then the horse trippes and falls... breaks his legs and ...

Beacuse schleich is sutch a good inventor (uchu uchu) the pute little magnets into the bums of the fairys and their horses saddles so the can give them more dynimic poses! Well done schleich!
They can even ride eatch others horses now
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Last but not least the rainbow foal and this owner (i think) on the right
On the left the (old) couple of an elf trying to reatch out to an foal...
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
i don;t like the creedy reatching molds... now i have them like mother and dochter reatching out to some foals that are not intressted in them at al ... nope nope not today..

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I do like the new foal his wings are perfect fit and the look happy to my..

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The last thing i want to tell is that the wings of all the new fairys and horses are ''glossed'' on the outside and ''mat'' on the inside... i don;t now why their are not without glos like the privious horses and fairy wings but why one side ? I think it look silly...

Sow that was it for today
I hope you all enjoy reading my stuff
If somebody want more pictures of any horse tell my i can post them:D
Next up more horses but need to take pictures of them first
Have a nice day the rest of the day

Thank you for showing us your new models! It's a shame they put an ear bonnet on the new Lippi horse as she would've been such a nice model without it.
I agree that the quarter horse -ish thing isn't that great, which is a shame

Always look at the positives!  

That was a good read.
I enjoyed watching your pictures while reading your opinion about the horses.
The good, the bad and the ugly.

Very nice additions! Congratulations! I especially like the horses from the sets with riders

That was an enjoyable addition post that you made! 
 
I don't even know where to start... You've gotten very nice horses! The SE models are nice of course - and it was good to see some comparing photos of them =) 
New Bayala models are nice as well, however we can see some sings what's coming next year.. The rearing horse really looks a bit odd:silent:
This Hanoverian from the washing area set is just gorgeous! Love the color and even though the black butt makes people mad I think it won't make me not to buy him. xD
Think that there will be also the gorgeous TWH stallion in that color..

Sorry for stealing your photo Susanne xS

Loved to read your thoughts and thanks for all the information! 

Congratulations! I enjoyed reading your opinions on the models. I believe the palomino from the riding set is supposed to be a paso fino. I think my favorite is the bay!

O 4u .. that maybe is possible .. the gate looks a bit like it ...
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

But if i have to believe the color chard ..
ore the beauty of the real Paso Fino .. i hope schleich wans't aiming for it ...
and i take it for a modern haflinger because if schleich was trying to make a paso fino...
they dind't do their home work well...

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Thanks to you all for the compliments :)
I like to here that you al enjoy my ''opinion''
Please share your own opinion i like to read it
