The Stagecoach Surprise!

The Stagecoach Surprise Breakdown!

We showed fans this year’s fun Special Run and Limited Edition variations yesterday, but saved the best for last today! 

Here at HQ, we know fans love to guess which mold will be used for the Surprise Model each year, from fan-hosted brackets to fun Facebook surveys, and some of you guessed correctly with Hamilton! Way to go! 

But did you catch all of this year’s incredible variations? From realistic to deco, matte to glossy finish, there is something for everyone with this year’s Stagecoach Surprise!

First up, the handsome pearly black and white tobiano pinto with a striking yellow and blue ribbon in his mane. 1,250 of this version were done in matte, and 375 pieces were glossed, for a total run of 1,625 pieces.

 

Next up, the dashing shaded light dapple chestnut with lime green mane ribbon.  1,125 of this model were in a matte finish, and 375 were glossy, for a total run of 1,500 pieces.

 

Our third variation was the beautiful, shaded buckskin tobiano pinto with teal ribbon in his mane. Just 1,025 of this colorway were done in matte, with 375 pieces glossed, making for a total run of 1,400 pieces.

 

Fourth in line is the eye-catching chestnut sabino roan frame pinto with purple and gold ribbon, making this 1,325-piece run look especially regal. 950 pieces were done in a matte finish and 375 pieces were glossed.

 

Next, the gorgeous shaded dapple grey with contrasting red mane ribbon. This run was a total of 1,225, with 850 pieces done in a matte finish and 375 in a glossy finish.

 

And finally, the smallest run of the bunch, the beautiful glossy blue and bronze decorator, with a coordinating blue mane ribbon. This piece was only released in gloss and just 625 pieces were produced.

I received my Second Chance sale order yesterday and got the Glossy Dapple Grey. He is Breathtaking. Thank you Breyer for allowing us the opportunity to get him.

I got the matte chestnut but I’m a huge fan of the decorator models so a little sad it wasn’t that version. Can’t wait for next year!

Finally received my surprise model. I received the matte buckskin. Very happy with him! I was a bit nervous when I got him as the box was a mess! The top was untaped, one corner ripped top to bottom with the tape on the bottom undone on that side so the whole flap came out. Was lucky the horse didn’t fall out & get lost. What a scare.

I was the one who got the matte chestnut! Very cute my top favorites were the black and white pinto and the buckskin but the chestnut one is growing on me and I like him! Can not wait for next years surprise!! Also the rarest of them all this year was the decorator model, so anyone with that I would like to say congrats! Next in line would be the ones who got glossy models lol! But I am on Team Matte! :)

The matte dapple grey is beyond stunning in person! And adore the glossy sabino roan too!

Jennifer Pomerance - July 31, 2023

I got both the glossy chestnut and what I think may be the glossy sabino. Not real sure about the sabino as I haven’t had a chance to unpack my trunk yet.

I am never lucky at Breyerfest varients or glossy runs. Ever. I guess it’s just bad luck on my part. BFest 23 was one of the best ones I’ve seen. I did the online option and also had someone do pickups for me as well for Speos, Jump/Drive and Scurry. I bought Peanutine from someone on line. I just wish the glossy models were easier to get.

Beautiful run of surprise models! Hamilton is one of my favorites! My surprises are Glossy buckskin and matte Sabine roan. They are gorgeous to say the least! Looking forward to next years lovelies!

Just got my online order. I got the glossy roan pinto!

Dang it means I’ll never be able to afford another Hamilton variation from BreyerFest 😭
