maybe if it proves itself worthy for the future. my hands are tied with breyer clubs all year, and i definitely don’t collect schleich like i used to!

Yes, Breyer will drain the wallet super fast! I have a collection of those too, but Schleich was my first love! I have a huge collection! Sadly as a kid i had no idea that either Schleich or Breyer existed...I discovered and starting acquiring them as a young adult. It might have been for the better though, as we wouldn't have had much money for such things, and that might have been torture for little me!

One of the biggest hooks for me is when they are "limited edition" or "exclusive!" Those words can make me start salivating lol. That's what has me hooked to try the new club subscription. It starts off being the limited memberships, and then they throw in exclusive items in each box! But it wasn't necessarily the little exclusive accessories they will include in each box...i would want them but possibly not enough to continue the subscription. That remains to be seen. Its not the regular three horses in each box, as i probably have them or can easily get them. The biggie for me was the occasional exclusive horses that will be in some of the boxes! Hopefully they will make them neat and often enough to justify the extra cost of maintaining the club membership. Otherwise i may have to shut my eyes and cut my losses. Time will tell!default smiley ^)

Yes, he's nice! I was worried if the paint job would look cheaply done, but actually the leaves are more crisp and detailed than i thought they might be, so i'm really happy to have him!default smiley :)

i think i might go to our local farm and fleet to see what they got! they usually set up toyland in october, and that’s usually when they get some schleich in that’s not just the models. i got the barrel racing set this way.
