Redone April 8, 2021
Hello and welcome to my model horse collection tour book! As of redoing this intro I am a 19 year old female collector from the Pacific Northwest, who's also been lucky enoughto own 3 real horses, and I've been in the hobby for going on 8 years. I was first introduced to Breyer's when my uncle gave me $25 for my eleventh or twelfth birthday, I bought the dapple grey pinto Morgan with black pinto scratching foal Stablemates set and the four piece Saddle Club Stablemates set.
Since then I started out slow until I started finding a small handful of stores in my area that had them and I'd scrap up change and holiday money to buy more Stablemates. As I got a little bit older and joined Facebook, I found plenty of model horse related groups and finally the Breyer website. I started watching YouTube videos of unboxing and collection tours until I finally decided I wanted to become a serious collector as well, 2/3 years after buying my first ones.
I have since made many goals for my collecting and what I wanted my shelves to look like. Some completed, some close, and some scrapped for whatever reason. My herd of horses have grown and shrunk tremendously over the years, the most I counted that I had at a time was around 265 all together. I tend to sell, trade, and buy a lot so the number fluctuates frequently.
I don't have a "exciting" purpose to collect other then it makes me happy and it's something I'm proud to look at. My favorite scale to collect, as you'll find out, are Stablemates with some Traditional scaled models thrown in the mix too. I've leaned towards collecting more special run type models recently rather then focusing on all the regular runs available, in hopes to help obtain some grails. Also I love collecting unique colors and coat patterns, the more unique the design the more likely it is I feel like I "need" it, though I'm not into decorator models unfortunately.

I make several different kinds of updates, some more exciting then others, so if you only like specific kinds of updates here's a symbol code to help navigate through the madness and hopefully it helps. Some updates will have two symbols, meaning it has both categories in one.

12 Miles Below
The world is in ruins. Extreme sub-zero temperatures suffocate the surface, making even simple survival an ordeal. Frozen derelicts of bygone eras span across massive ice wastes. And the elite few hoard any technology rediscovered within. The only escape from the deadly climate is beneath the surface. But it’s another disaster underground. Monstrous machines lurk in the depths. Unhinged demigods war against them, dying over and over, treating it all like a game. The land itself shifts over time, more contraption than rock. And an ominous prophecy states that the key to everything waits at the last level - but nobody’s ever reached that far. When an expedition into the far uncharted north goes terribly wrong, Keith Winterscar and his father get trapped together in a desperate fight for survival. Stumbling upon an ancient power struggle of titanic scale; the two will need to set their differences aside while they struggle against Gods, legends, and the grand secrets of the realm that lies below. Updating Monday and Thursdays. Discord can be found here (This is a shared discord server with other books.)WARNING: This series is ridiculously filled with spoilers, every book has multiple reveals. One of the main draws of the series is to figure out why things are the way they are, and then slowly start narrowing down your own theories until the reveals hit. Discord was made for up-to-date readers since there's no way to really police spoilers. Don't join until you're current!!
