I still have the black thoroughbred that I bought when I was a kid.  The Breyer horses are just stunning :)

All of your collections are beautiful!  It makes me miss the ones I used to have.  I'd love to start collecting again, but I don't make enough money at my job for anything extra.

It also just seems like every year they keep getting more expensive. -_-

I can't remember when I started to get into Breyer horses. I want to say the early 1990's. My collection peaked somewhere between 200-300 horses before I started to downsize. I can't even remember who my first model was. Since my herd reduction I collected on and off for many years. Recently I sold off what I had remaining except for 4 of my traditional sized models and a bunch of stablemates which I still collect since they are easy to display and cheap.

I would take a pic but they are in storage except for my NIB Esprit who sits on top of my dresser and a Stablemate I recently acquired from a lovely trade partner here on the arena :)

Oh yes they have, back in 1995 they were about $20 to $25 each. And the SR and LE horses were $30 to $35 at the most. And the foals were any were from $12 to $15 each. Some were even $10 if you bought them from a big Breyer dealer.  It sure has changed a lot!

Those are beautiful! I had that palomino mare in the back right corner when I was younger. I loved her!

Such lovely collections everyone! I love to look at Breyers but I don't have any of my own. I could too easily get into these so I have not let myself get one...yet!

I have a good sized collection. At least 100 different breyers and accessories including a huge barn. Lots are in storage and my collection has been split up. No pics, but hopefully soon!

These are my 2 newest acquirements.  I found them at Meijer in Big Rapids, MI, 4 hours from here.  I was on my way home this past weekend from Grand Rapids where I saw the We the Kings concert.  I'm having a lot of trouble finding Breyers in my area lately.  I know these 2 are not the expensive kind, but I still find them very beautiful.  :)

I'm going to Breyerfest so maybe I'll see some of you around. I'm probably going to be at my friend's book signing there.
