November 13, 2020
My Appreciation Haul finally arrived and here's what I ordered! We're going to start small to big, ending with the glossy model.
First off I got the Voyer pin Breyer had just put up on the website the day of the sale and it's actually pretty cute. I already have a thing for pins so I'm happy to add this handsome one to my mini collection and Breyer paraphernalia.
~~~~~
Name: Justify
Breed: Thoroughbred
Color: Chestnut
Special Run: No
Significance: None
Next we have adorable Justify to add to my Stablemates herd. His face marking is really pretty and he has a nice paint job over all, but not anything really special or significant. I kind of wish I kept my Stablemate American Pharaoh to keep with him.
~~~~~
Breed: Appaloosa and Quarter Horse
Color: Chestnut leopard and bay
Special Run: No
Significance: No
I mainly got this set for the blanket that comes with it and the Appy but I'm really happy to finally get this set since I got the English one a while ago. The horses are really cute and the Appy is pretty well done with minimal masking flaws and she also has some shading around her flank and shoulder to add more depth to her and I love it. The Quarter horse is cute two but not as detailed and does have some more prominent flaws. The reason this update was so late was because for some reason Breyer decided to ship this set separately.
~~~~~
Name: Adiha HP
Breed: Friesian Sport Horse
Color: Chestnut Tobiano
Special Run: No
Significance: First on the mold
Adiha HP is a beautiful chestnut Tobiano Friesian Sport Horse mare who's famous in the dressage ring. Her moves are as beautiful as her coat and I'm so excited to add her to my growing Traditional collection. She's a beautiful model, very dynamic, and I'm going to have to look into a metal stand for her though so the stand doesn't break inside her foot. Even with her stand she's still a bit wobbly which has me paranoid.

Name: Peptoboonsmal
Breed: American Quarter Horse
Color: Red Roan
Special Run: No
Significance: First on the mold
Besides the CCA horse, Peptoboonsmal is the horse I was most excited to add to my shelves! He's absolutely stunning, his roaning is perfect and he even has subtle dapples on his sides too. He's the most detailed regular run model I've seen and I couldn't be happier with him! He's definitely a new favorite regular run model for sure. I'm so happy to finally get a horse on the Dundee mold because it feels like I've been waiting forever, I'm definitely not disappointed. Dundee and Duwamish are my holiest grails now.
~~~~~
Name: CCA Ideal QH
Breed: Quarter Horse
Color: Chestnut
Special Run: Collector's Club Appreciation model
Significance: First ever CCA model!
I can now finally say I have a CCA horse! I'm so incredibly thankful to my boyfriend who helped me get it out of no where because I had the money I made myself, spent it on Misty and Stormy thinking I'd have enough time to save up before December, and then Breyer popped these guys out of thin air. Originally I got glossy Dominate but I was hoping for the Ideal QH or Catch Me, thankfully I was able to find a good and fast trade. Now I might have to get the matte version sometime, hopefully for Christmas. He does have a few tiny flaws but they're nothing super big or inconvenient, he's beautiful all around and a new favorite in my herd. ❤
P
ictures of him without flash.

The Complete Alchemyst book 1
You've heard of superheroes, seen them flying across the sky, destroying great swaths of cities and ending countless innocent lives in order to defeat great evils and world-spanning threats and sell lots of sponsorships and merchandising opportunities. This is a story about the guy that is not those heroes. A supervillain in a world where making the right friends and political contacts is what separates the good guys from the bad. The Alchemyst is a story about a normal guy in a crazy world that spends his time trying to follow his dreams and conscience, working on new potions, thinking about girls, and lifting heavy shit, while trying to stay under the radar of the superheroes, supervillains, and governments that want what he can do. And occasionally turning them into makeshift melee weapons. If you enjoy The Boys, the Aberrant roleplaying game, Mystery Men, Trashy romances, Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, or SAW you may enjoy this book. Please note that this book has extremely graphic and sometimes gross fight scenes, heroes as villains, villains as heroes, opinionated and often politically incorrect characters, some graphic sex scenes, dad jokes, dirty jokes, realistic depictions of romance and flirting, bondage and dominance themes, and more than a few cuss words when they are really appropriate. This is NOT a superhero genre deconstruction. Many heroes truly are heroes, and they don't all need to be destroyed to make a good story, but it does look into the dark side of superpowers and the unreasonable and often contradictory demands placed on exceptional people.
