Those Breyer's are so pretty! And the Schleich models are cute too!

My bank account is about to hate me... Ordered 4 Breyers and I'm now looking at that Pink Unicorn.. Though I have noticed Schleich have done an o-oh on the front page of their UK website.

LIMITED AND NEW: The Black Lion! (Shows an image of the Black TRex). Apparently the Black/Midnight Lion doesn't exist for UK customers on their website

Aww that's a bummer about the Midnight Lion not being available! Hopefully he will be soon! I can't wait to find out what Breyers you are getting...and i got an email that the collector's club deal for next year's membership is open! I'm also getting really antsy wanting to know what Schleich models are being retired at the end of the year...want to make sure i have them!

I'm hopefully getting these lovely four tomorrow: (Sorry if the images are large)



Oh nice! Are you going for the membership next year? I can't remember if you said if you were...

When do they normally announce the Schleich to be retiring? Also got to keep an eye out for CollectA too...

Those are some beauties! It can be so hard to wait, feeling the anticipation...and then if they are late its like arrrggghhhh! Lol! And yes, i did pay the fee for the 2023 Collector's Club just last night, so i am signed up! I am planning to join the Stablemates Club too. I think i read in the past that the Schleich retirees are posted somewhere like any time now, or maybe November? I wish i knew where they are first announced. All i know to do is do a google search lol. Have found nothing so far. I am much more thorough with my Schleich collection than with my CollectA so i wasn't really thinking much of them lately...but it would be good to know! I was of the understanding that CollectA doesn't do much retiring, at least not for a good long time. I will have to try to find that list too.

Thankfully the arrived yesterday My mum loves the Silver Bay Mustang, with a very shiny mane and tail

That's cool! Fingers crossed for some lovely models for you next year!

I hope it's soon so I can make an order and get what I really want, lol. I'll be travelling for one month, so for me, time is limited! My predictions are... (based on a google search for next year models and further websites...)



Apparently CollectA retired some models at the end of 2021, but they're still available on the only store which sells them in the UK, so maybe once their supply has run out of that model, they'll stop selling it.

Hey yall, it sure has been a while, but I am so glad to be back on here! I am making a tack order for a friend and I need some fall colors to us efor the tack theme of fall. Im also having a lot of trouble finding motivation to make the tack and to get my schleich stuff out, so color suggestions would really help

does anyone else have the smurfs rocking horse?
I just found out I had it all this time it is from 1987 making it the oldest model that I have in my now 400+ collection. Unfortunately, younger me used a sharpie on the eyes and saddle and there are some rubs and scuffs so it's not really worth anything now but still a really cool item to have in my collection.
(I'm having trouble with attaching images lately so sorry for not posting an image.)

Well for fall, i would think of like tan and deep red colors, or depending on the person you are making them for, like a strong orange or yellow? Though i'm thinking the deep reds and browns sound better.



Oh, cool...i have very few smurfs, and most of them were thank you gifts from a past Schleich online store order. I have never actually seen them for sale first hand in a store even. But a rocking horse one sounds like one i would love to find!

Thank you so much for the suggestions

A little late but... When I think of fall/autumn, I think of warm colours, such as oranges, browns, deep reds and yellows. Maybe some red-y pinks.




I don't have any Smurfs myself, but it sounds like you have got a good one there!

hello!

how is yall?

Bumping cause i'm scared it will get deleted!

My mum is stealing my cardboard boxes to pack stuff in, and she found an old Schleich box with the invoice still attached. It was from January, does that count as a long time?

In the interim, I got two more Schleich's: the Sunrise pegaus foal and the Criollo foal. I thought that was going to be the last of the Schleich I get this year, then they decide to do a special Black Friday unicorn (has the pink one gone now?) and Black Friday deals. At least there aren't that many I need currently in the sale, so my bank account is safe (for now)

I'm now interested in schleich. Should I?

Welp, i've been meaning to post but i having trouble keeping up with things these days lol.



If you love animals, and really like Schleich's figurines that you've seen, why not? There is a wide variety out there, of animals and otherwise, and new ones made every year, so there's sure to be something(s) that you will like. They are quality figurines!



I am wanting that pegasus foal, congrats! And i am so glad you said something about the Black Friday special unicorn, as i had no idea! I searched the US Schleich site high and low and couldn't find it, and i admit i was panicking a little bit...Black Friday is short lived! Anyway, i couldn't find it, so i emailed the company. Never heard back, but continued to look. Found it in another country or two (i think in the UK, can't afford the shipping for clear across the pond, and in Canada, where it unfortunately said they were not currently shipping internationally). It took a lot of looking and i finally found it when i did a specific site search a few times. That's the only way it would come up, like it was in hiding anywhere else. But the frustration continued when i was sitting in the waiting room of the doctor's office, waiting for my mom to come out, and i spent the whole hour trying to get the dumb checkout thing to work right. It kept trying to add two or three BF unis to my cart, when i only wanted one. Very frustrating lol, and i was worried cause it says there are only 2,040 available worldwide, and it had already been a couple days. I got the order done just in time for my mom to come back out to the waiting room. Oh, and literally just after i ordered, i got the email from Schleich about the special uni ha ha. And just a little bit ago, i got the email that my order has shipped. Cue the thumb twiddles, waiting is no fun ha ha. Oh, and when i was on there, the pink uni was still available...so unless it sold out, it should still be there.

I did manage to find these cuties that i have been wanting in a Tractor Supply store, so excited about that!

I don't have schliech horses but I have Breyer horses, and I am planning to make ny first realistic saddle soon! If you could wish me luck, that would be amazing.

Best of luck! I admire you guys who are crafty!

I can't believe the other day when i posted i forgot to share this fun little character that i have recently gotten!



And these are the new guys i just got!

I am so jealous of those purchases! Especially the Black Friday Unicorn. I went to see what else they were doing, and guess what? It's sold out and removed from the site. Haha, oh well. Maybe next year they'll do something similar. Either way, time to wait to see what comes about in their other Black Friday sales.


Speaking of CollectA, has anyone seen the 2023 models? I am loving the look of some of them.

Oh bummer, i'm so sorry you missed out! That's why i was so frustrated when it didn't want to work for me properly when i was trying to buy. I knew they were very limited in numbers. They said worldwide there was only 2,040 in existence.

I have not checked out the new CollectA models yet, but i will certainly have to! I've been trying to find a list of which Schleich models are retiring after this year, and for the life of me i can't find one! Does anyone know where i might find such a list? I want an opportunity to pick up any i might be missing before then.

I honestly don't have any schleichs I used to go to my Barn store we can get tack and dog food and stuff like that and they would have she likes there I just they never peeked my interest but I always loved Breyers my best friend loves Breyers and my best friend actually got me into this game somehow you guys on or the guys on horse logged her out and she wasn't able to do it so now she's found a better game and I might not be on as much as I used to but I still love this game so much and this new add-on is amazing

I just got this pretty guy...warning, bigger picture.

I used to collect schleich and even made a whole barn with pastures, outdoor arena with actual sand, a round pen etc. But I started collecting breyers more seriously. I kinda miss my schleich tho, they don't look as realistic anymore I've noticed and im really torn. They came out with a lot of different sets id love to have.

Wow has it been a while since I've been on here it has been so busy between school, volleyball, and soccer and basketball is starting soon. Oh boy, anyways I love your guys' finds. They're so cute! Next how has everyone been doing? Any new projects or finds? None for me, I'm still broke lol hoping to get some stuff for Christmas tho like some collecta and schleich. what's on your holiday lists? Ok I think I should get off of here its almost midnight where I live anyways have a good rest of day/night/whenever you see this. Until my next post

Been a big fan of schleich for about 18yrs and still collecting whether it's their horses or wildlife, from figures to sets and it's great to know there are others as well
