Name: Dahlia aka Black Dahlia by Hollywood Undead

Breed: American Miniature Horse

Color: Black pintaloosa

Special Run: SM Club '21 Gamblers Choice

Significance: None

My now *officially* complete to date set of Gamblers Choices from the Stablemates Club, this lovely lady made her way to me safe and sound! I made an arrangement back in January this year with a lovely person to trade my Prince from the Deluxe Club for the pintaloosa if I didn't get one from my account. They got two memberships and ended up with a pintaloosa and Splash so we traded immediately as my Dahlia hadn't arrived yet. She just did today and I got the pintaloosa straight from Breyer too so I got lucky twice haha. The one I got from Breyer will be posted for sale soon. She's lovely and so happy I got my first pick, her markings are beautiful and her thick gloss really brings out her more charcoal grey highlights around her flanks really pull her together. I'm so excited for another pintaloosa Stablemate because we haven't seen one since Anaya from Breyerfest 2017 if I remember right, part of the reason I still have my beat up and body condition Anaya - I haven't found a better quality replacement for her and there's not tons out there. Dahlia is now one of my favorites from the Stablemates Club, she's just so pretty and dynamic I can't put her down and leave her alone haha.

Another 2022 Club release, Zafirah, a show stance Arabian Mare sculpted by infamous Brigitte Eberl with a richly shaded flaxen liver chestnut coat designed by Myla Pearce. She will be the first Premier Club release for the year followed by two more Traditional releases and a brand new Stablemates sculpture at the end of the year.

Again... in my personal opinion I think we have enough Arabian molds and I hope the rest of the line up gets more creative with new breeds and poses.

Dax is created on the mini version of Breyer’s iconic Fighting Stallion model, who just celebrated his 60th birthday in 2021. Dax’s chestnut appaloosa coat is loaded with tiny details, and also has a subtle interference purple finish for a little extra sparkle. So far I think this release is pretty cute except for the added purple sparkle.

After getting Dundee, 7 Arts, and Pierrot new custom halters I felt like showing off my rainbow of halters. I'm running out of combination and ombre ideas lol

My big reveal at the end of this update is not only did I renew for the Stablemates Club but I joined the Premier Club as well!! I'm excited to join the Premier Club for the first time and fingers crossed there's some good keepers next year! 🤞
