Breyer North Star Ponies?
« on: January 20, 2015, 01:40:25 PM »
I've been looking for these gorgeous ponies for years; I saw them in a Breyer pamphlet during my teens, & was desperate to own all six of them.  :drunk: I've never seen them for sale either in a shop or online.
Is anyone out there looking to sell any, or would know where I can find some?
I'm especially keen on Dustin, Berry & Dandy.
Thanks in advance!  :)

This is a very nice set!  I remember staring at them in the catalog, too.  The ones I especially liked were Dandy and Shasta.  But I never saw them in stores either...  My Breyer collection does have other Ponies in it, but none of these guys, unfortunately.  I really wish Breyer had stuck with this line rather than transitioning to Pony Gals because this line was really cute.

I remember those!  But only from pictures - I never had one myself.  They are gorgeous, though.  And sorry to say, I haven't noticed any for sale around :/  Hopefully someone will have some info for you!

I can check my body boxes and see if I have any of those.  I do have this gal though who is looking for a new home, if interested let me know.   I have more photos of her if you want.

I adore the North Star set, though I could never find any of the Breyer pony sets at my kb or tru when they were still around. Raven, Dustin and Berry are the most beautiful of the bunch! Good luck

Those are some pretty ponies!

Wonder if they actually made them?

I *faintly* remember seeing Dandy at a local KMart several years ago. Never did see them elsewhere, but I wasn't looking for them, either.

Thanks for the replies :) I wonder why these guys are so elusive? Such gorgeous collectables deserved much better marketing.

Because they're some of the best looking in the bunch, they're hard to find and no one wants to give theirs up presumably.

I remember them in the catalog but have never seen them for sale at the breyer stores I would go to. Maybe a breyer specialty store could find some and have them ordered? I order all of my breyer stuff from a couple who have their own little business called walkaboutfarm.com. Not sure if they could find some for you, but they're worth a shot! Super nice too!

Because of the generic name, searches are more likely to give you various breyer ponies instead of Breyer Ponies. Though I have had some luck typing breyers dapples on ebay instead, saw an in-box little Debbie special Oatmeal Cream. Maybe if you try typing in Breyer Dapple or Breyer Pony and then the name ie Raven, you can narrow your search

No North Stars, but there are some like Blueberry, a red roan, Double Dutch and I thiiink Lemondrop
