Fleabitten Grey Black Stallion Test Run | 2021 Collector Club

Exclusively for Breyer Collector Club members!  Breyer test run models are initial decos painted up to see how a particular color might look on a particular sculpture. Or, they may be created to test out a painting technique or new colorway.  Not all test run models are used, and they may vary over time as different painting techniques are developed and tested. Each model has a fixed price and interested members enter a random draw for the ability to purchase the test piece.

As one of the most famous literary horses in history, it’s no surprise that when the Black Stallion first debuted in the Breyer lineup in 1981, he was given his very own sculpture – mold #401. Since his solid black debut, he’s sported many different colors and even become a unicorn! However, this Test Run model features a color that has never been offered to the general public on this sculpture – fleabitten grey. This piece likely dates to the late 1990s or early 2000s, and has plenty of personality! He is painted with a mixture of black and brown fleabites for depth of color.

Taking into account his age and status as true test model, the Fleabitten Grey Black Stallion is in great condition overall, but not perfect. He has some faint shiny marks on his body only visible under close inspection, and a few pinpoint rubs on his nostril and hooves. These small flaws don’t detract from his presence! This piece of Breyer history is priced at $950 and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
