The first step was tearing up the 40yr old carpet that the cats have been. . . ummm. . . destroying. . . if you know what I mean. It took two days, but it's all out now.

When he's not auctioneering, he works as a mailman for USPS.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Anyway, the table was going "choice", so I was standing there, waiting for them to finish with the other junk on the table (some diecast cars, magazines, and a huge Michael Jackson wall memoriam [it sold for $18!!]), when suddenly, Randy (the man) strikes one of the wall hangings off the wall above the table (by accident, of course). The picture fell directly onto this little Arab. In retrospect, it was rather humorous, but in the moment I was pretty frustrated. I ended up buying the Arab for $5.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">What is happening to me? I never used to like glossies, decos, or mohairs. In the last three months, I have purchased one glossy deco and two mohairs! Shock and horror, could my collecting tastes be shifting?? I hope not; models being produced in gloss have saved me a lot of money over the years!! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>Adah R.

Yep, he's nearly 60 years old, <i>and he still has his hat!!!</i> I might have done a little happy dance and clapped my hands when I saw it on the table next to him. He's glossy, which means he was made in the first year(s) of that run's production. He's in great shape, with the exception of one blackish rub on his right hip. I can live with that. ;) His show and barn name is SDS Nahum.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Adios is Yellow Mount. He is the shoulder spot variation. He's in pretty good shape, with minor front leg warping and a few flaws on his lower legs. Nothing too bad. His show name has yet to be chosen, but his barn name is Roy.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Well, that's all the new arrivals for today's post.

So sorry for the break in posting. All back to normal now!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">While you're waiting for the next post, can you guess in the comments which horses came home with me from this local auction group?

Thanks a bunch! For whatever reason Google won't let me comment a reply atm. I have seen a few model Vanner ponies in photo showing (typically in CM classes), but I wasn't sure how well they were known by other judges. (And consequently, how they do in photo shows where a vanner-holic like myself is not the judge! lol) </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">It's fair time, it's fair time! Which also means it is my busiest time of year. I contribute 75-100 entries in my local fair every year, so this time of year is a little nutsy! It is exactly 11 days 'til opening day, so things are getting tight for time. I've only been getting 4-6hrs of sleep (yes I know, it's not good for me. . .) and I was good and sick yesterday. Feeling better today. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Yesterday, I sorted through my photos and picked my photography entries.

I may share pictures later, if there's any interest. I am also "knitting" a scarf on one of those loom things (?). I got it at a thrift store to experiment with using up some extra bulky yarn, and it works wonders. It takes forever though.

The matte one is all black there.</span><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNmmm-TXQqN_BvOO5gyW18XXpFllk5mP9yIOFhpQdiO5E6KVwsk6cyff8v4KiuJlPwPTOB0ZmhtRCj3mS9fxHYw0dwHuRBqJbjd9ZNA-nbDAhJSiWRMMfvmBW95YFRM1cdXnnGMFyF6Yz-pBhN8MV0Bto2MBqP0dd_OhCddpq6wOLb3kOUDUu-Pu5ZXrnt/s1889/Screenshot%20(48).png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="915" data-original-width="1889" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNmmm-TXQqN_BvOO5gyW18XXpFllk5mP9yIOFhpQdiO5E6KVwsk6cyff8v4KiuJlPwPTOB0ZmhtRCj3mS9fxHYw0dwHuRBqJbjd9ZNA-nbDAhJSiWRMMfvmBW95YFRM1cdXnnGMFyF6Yz-pBhN8MV0Bto2MBqP0dd_OhCddpq6wOLb3kOUDUu-Pu5ZXrnt/w400-h194/Screenshot%20(48).png" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I decided to name him SDS Grandpa's War Bond.

I'm back! With new ponies. :)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I have received 18 of my 20 models, so I will do separate posts on them when they arrive later on. :)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">The first horse I got more than a week ago. It's my Bravour 54, AKA Problem Pony. He showed up Sunday morning while I was at church. I unboxed him as soon as I got home. He looked great. . . at first. I pulled him out of the box and realized that he was the most flawed model I have ever received. To give you an idea, this is the message I sent to Breyer about him:</span></p><blockquote><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><span style="color: #666666;"><div style="text-align: left;">I received my 2023 BF Celebration model today and he is extraordinarily
flawed. I've been a collector for a long time, so I understand typical
factory issues but this is beyond that. This model has four large rubs
in the paint on his left side (going straight through to the base
color), at least two human hairs under the paint on his neck, a smear of
dark paint on his chest, a rub in the paint of his left eye, excessive
shiny marks covering his body, areas in the tail that are unpainted, two
large hoof rubs, an ear-tip rub, black paint spattered up the inside of
his hind leg, and a number of other smaller flaws. I can provide
photographs. I would like to know what you would be willing to do about
this please.
Please note: Both box and shipping box were in good condition, so the
flaws did NOT occur in transit. </div></span></blockquote><p> <span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Thankfully, Breyer was awesome about it and sent me a replacement at no cost (he's still in shipping though). Here are some pics of Disaster Dan for interested parties:</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh-C4bHoqTFD0pDdmetEzhbCOjJlIvEtFGXZQ7O9y5sm23470dyTRyDfs2ZMoLkfucRMDoyHVS8ACNUTzvECl0a9wc3ZJrLi0KGpiMMZqrfFlUQXEpB4Yn-TN32I4tW5ouJe7SCJnm28qA9im2_AJdEUiEtfZRk4muUPgtJX1wqHCbrAhyGnIQIF_NWtYF/s9700/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6507" data-original-width="9700" height="215" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh-C4bHoqTFD0pDdmetEzhbCOjJlIvEtFGXZQ7O9y5sm23470dyTRyDfs2ZMoLkfucRMDoyHVS8ACNUTzvECl0a9wc3ZJrLi0KGpiMMZqrfFlUQXEpB4Yn-TN32I4tW5ouJe7SCJnm28qA9im2_AJdEUiEtfZRk4muUPgtJX1wqHCbrAhyGnIQIF_NWtYF/s320/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%201.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuj-HDuLrVSoabb5jWdFWgPeTQQMdAxcPTJ-25gtzhxC0s71fvLAjLFgywCKkY-hy9Dn1mIFPxo-6uzpH8TqhC_qPt6qbnx7u_dRaMHF8XQq384Vy9nKZsm68wWD7g1_kZq2Zm0u4_KbHEoWCxsxT5Dy2Ea46UL0mDTn5xbKYcgaAN6VbT42U5yuDxmn2V/s9456/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%202.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5728" data-original-width="9456" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuj-HDuLrVSoabb5jWdFWgPeTQQMdAxcPTJ-25gtzhxC0s71fvLAjLFgywCKkY-hy9Dn1mIFPxo-6uzpH8TqhC_qPt6qbnx7u_dRaMHF8XQq384Vy9nKZsm68wWD7g1_kZq2Zm0u4_KbHEoWCxsxT5Dy2Ea46UL0mDTn5xbKYcgaAN6VbT42U5yuDxmn2V/s320/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%202.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyh99GxzRzkrRWCVjVMKPUFA_6riAOrRTG7icozCvW-cz7-XAv4oWSCXdih4lzWXx4QGVqZU2a2JUoqFXU515HOVizGfgupuOdkgjWmH2Wt2n8S3omt_KLsW_6nE20T3ds51N-euKQgEXiTC8u1uDzK85_E7E-2sW_eqfScGOASNgwTnkh_VmIPeJIom9e/s9544/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%203.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6880" data-original-width="9544" height="231" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyh99GxzRzkrRWCVjVMKPUFA_6riAOrRTG7icozCvW-cz7-XAv4oWSCXdih4lzWXx4QGVqZU2a2JUoqFXU515HOVizGfgupuOdkgjWmH2Wt2n8S3omt_KLsW_6nE20T3ds51N-euKQgEXiTC8u1uDzK85_E7E-2sW_eqfScGOASNgwTnkh_VmIPeJIom9e/s320/damaged%20bravour%2054%20collage%203.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">A few days ago, I purchased a Teamster model from friend and fellow blogger, Equiden.

I'm here with you live for right now. I'm going to be on for around fifteen minutes. I'll start the Q&A by answering you questions from the comments. :)</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">My favorite horse breed is the Appaloosa.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Some non-horsey hobbies I enjoy are: nail art, amigurumi crochet, needle felting, polymer clay work, miniature making (that's border-line model horsey lol), collecting useless information about the Princess Bride and it's surrounding fandom, yard-sailing, reading, and volunteering at my local library. (I'm kind of eclectic!)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Top books would have to be The Bible (favorite book in the Bible is Luke or possibly one of the epistles), Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, That Hideous Strength, The Screwtape Letters, The Princess Bride, From the Center of the Ring, Hope Rising (the one by Kim Meeder), and every single one of the horse encyclopedias.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">My favorite (non-horsey) color is purple, but I also love a good aqua.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I own between 300 and 400 model horses (but some are not show quality).</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">My favorite appaloosa pattern is a loud leopard with big butt spots.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I love to paint Stablemates.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">It would be really close between Traditionals and Stablemates to decide which one I prefer. . . I'd <i>probably</i> end up saying Traditional. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I'm not a decorator person, but I suppose my favorite would be a really cool galaxy design.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Favorite Traditional mold may be the hardest question so far. I think I have at least two. I think it's a tie between Troubadour and Rhian.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">My favorite RR release for 2023 is Sweetwater Zorah Belle.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">Favorite animal besides horses is a three way tie between guinea pigs, narwhals, and cats. But, I love nearly every animal out there so it's a really tough choice!</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I may add to this list with questions from the Chestnut Ridge, but I think you guys did great without it! Thank you! If more questions come in while I am on live I will answer them in this post. :)</span></p>Adah R.

The other models were not all so lucky, with his same-mould brother now sporting a zig-zag crack around his tail, others with various touch-ups to ears and noses necessary, and even a bit of superglue.
