Breyer Unicorn Crazy Surprise Blind Bags - an overview
« on: August 15, 2019, 12:11:16 PM »
Decided to update this thread with a listing of all Breyer unicorn blind bags, if anyone is curious about what is available. :)

First Series, released late 2018:

Series 1 had seven common unicorns, and one chase figure. The color scheme was pastels. Series 1 was not exclusive to any store.

Series 1 package:

Additional Information:
--There's no codes on the packages to tell which unicorn is in which bag. You can tell which mold you have by carefully feeling the outline of the unicorn in the store before purchase. The best way to tell is to feel for the tail (some molds carry it high, some carry it low, the Clyds are short) and feel the mane (the Magnolia has an upright mane, the others lay flat on their necks) and whether the legs are straight or bent.
--Each box has 12 unicorns in it, so there are either 2 or 3 of each unicorn in a box. It seems to be that chase figures are found 1 in every 4 boxes. If the chase figure is in the box, it takes the place of one of the other unicorns, so there is never a box of 13.
--The last series, 3, is the easiest one to find the chase because there is no common Magnolia mold in that series, just the chase.
--Be very careful when handling your unicorns because these are as breakable as any Breyer figure. I have found unicorns in packages with broken off legs and broken off horns, sadly.


Note: Thank you to official Breyer website, IdentifyYourBreyer.com, and ebay for photos.

It's a series that is from last year but they are still putting out new waves, so grab them up while you still can :lol:
Your unicorn is a Walking Arabian mold and looks to be from the newer Walmart  exclusive wave.

The series 2 unicorns aren't too old. I think they hit shelves around January? They should last longer.

Ahh so this is the second set! Oh man some of the pastels I found on google are very pretty. I'm sorry I missed that set, too!

Sigh. I've gone to 3 other Walmarts and haven't found a single one of the current metallic set. I'm in a rural area, so probably all my Walmarts don't restock that much, if at all. (Ha, it's funny that these days rural area = 3 Walmarts within driving distance).

Sigh. So I visited a friend today and I talked her into going to look for more unicorn blind bags.  ^^; We went to 3 more Walmarts. In ONE of them I found a single last unicorn blind bag! (All of them had plenty of regular horse Breyer blind bags.) I was so happy, it felt like my hard search was worth it, to get at least one of them! So then I bought it opened the bag when I got in the car... it was broken.  :cry: Her leg was snapped off.

I'm giving up.  -_- They are obviously not in my area anymore. Sigh. It's hard being a toy collector, sometimes!

Don't despair! The first series is still available on breyer's website! https://www.breyerhorses.com/collections/blind-bag-surprise

And, they should be available at any tack/farm supply stores along with other Breyers

Especially Tractor Supply. If you have one in your area, that would be a good place to search.

They are cute-  I actually bought a lot of opened ones on ebay for cheaper than they cost new... I guess people get a lot of dups.

They are so pretty! I have a couple of series 1 unicorns, but I can't find the one I want the most--the rainbow one from Series 2. I looked at a couple Tractor Supply stores and Walmart, but they didn't have any. I hope I can find the rainbow one soon.

Oh I've been doing research! I think that the rainbow one is series 2 of the Walmart exclusive line? I could be wrong, but I think there's three series released so far. The Pastel Series 1 was not exclusive to any place (chase figure is solid dark blue color), then there was a Metallic Series 1 that was Walmart exclusive (chase figure is black with orange spatter) and now there's a Chromatic Walmart exclusive Series 2 (chase figure is a pastel rainbow color).

The Chromatic series just hit Walmart this month, so they're around!

But the chase figures are only one in every four boxes, I think I heard. I found two boxes that were basically full at my local Walmart and didn't find the chase figure. :(
