| Hi! Recently I have started to collect Breyer Stablemates. One of my newly acquired models has a code printed on its belly. And I haven't seen anything like it on any other model. This might be something obvious for the more experienced collectors of Breyer, but I really can't find anything about it. The model is the Hanoverian (G4) nr. 410443 from JCPenney Holiday Catalog 'Parade of Breeds 2010'. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The code looks like this and says: F19691C0066551035CN Could someone maybe tell me what it is or what it stands for, please? Thank you for your help and knowledge! _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

| They are on a lot of the newer SMs too. A lot of China manufacturers require this print, unfortunately. |

Oh, that’s a shame. Hopefully a little smaller? _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

| Unfortunately not! And they are very obvious on some models, the black Eberl Andalusian has a huge silver code right down his side. Some of these have the code, others don't. |

| No! Why would someone paint a model nicely and then slap a ugly very visible code on it?! Such a shame. _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

| It really is a shame It has something to do with Chinese regulations, but I don't know what exactly and why only some models have it. The worst part is if you're buying the model new in package you can't see if it has a stamp or not until you remove it from the box |

| Breyer probably also knows it will cost them sales if people can tell if a horse has a very visible code stamped on him. _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

| oh, it really is a shame! Luckily none of my Stablemates has it. But I also noticed some codes on Safari and papo models (four digits) printed on a belly or a leg, often very visible too. _________________ I have two main passions: collecting and drawing animals Ars Animalium = Animal Art [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Ars Animalium on facebook I am Ars Animalium on Insta |

| I started only last December. Probably went a little overboard. But it are only stablemates. The Traditionals and Classics are to big for my taste (and the closet ). _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

Holy guacamole! That’s awesome! How do you even make sure you don’t buy one you already have?! _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

Wow! Do you have more OF or more customs? You could take a picture of a Stablemates per day and you would have different photos for whole year! _________________ I have two main passions: collecting and drawing animals Ars Animalium = Animal Art [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Ars Animalium on facebook I am Ars Animalium on Insta |

| Somehow I manage to remember the ones I already have :lol Occasionally I check my shelves for a mold I'm not super in love with since I can't remember those as well, but for the most part I have a general idea which ones I still need They are almost entirely OF. I only have about 10 CMs |

Thank you for trying to help me! I really appreciate it! When I was looking online I also came across this explanation. But it doesn’t match with the code on the belly (although it looks very similar) . If I follow the explenation this horse is from month 19 in 1969. _________________ . Error 404 *Text not found.*

Yeah, it seems to me this explanation really works only for hoof code really on Traditional and Classics, it can tell you when your model was made, such as the tiny circle with months on Schleich. But the code on your SM is completely different... _________________ I have two main passions: collecting and drawing animals Ars Animalium = Animal Art [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Ars Animalium on facebook I am Ars Animalium on Insta |

None of the SMs I acquired during Breyerfest 2018 have a code on their bellies. I have 3 of the single-day ticket SMs and several of the Mystery Unicorn Surprises. Come to think of it, I have a few too many of the Mystery Unicorn SMs and will be getting more as soon as I can purchase an entire display box. Right now the spares are the grey/silver G3 Walking Arabian, the pink G2 Clydesdale, and the peach Magnolia (a mini version of the trad resin). All have the same model [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Can't decide if I want to donate them to a live show or sell them. |
