| Looks like a knock off of an actual Breyer mould: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]_________________ ~Magda (formerly Mangalarga) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Blog | Facebook |

| Do you think it has been knocked off by Breyer themselves? |

| If it was made by Breyer, it wouldn't be a knock off What scale is it? If it's not around 1:9, it's definitely a knock off. I had smaller "Made in China" knock offs of Breyer models myself. Also, they weren't made of the same material as originals, it was a different kind of plastic - it's easier to tell once you have an opportunity to hold in hands a genuine Breyer. _________________ ~Magda (formerly Mangalarga) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Blog | Facebook |

The scale is shown by the Canadian Dollar coin besides it; the coin itself measures around 3cm wide, maybe a little less. I guess it is a 1/9. |
