Horses Reviews

This toy is fun and education becuase it is a horse that also has a great amount of history behind him. So you can not only play with him but research him as well.

Very beautiful, very highly detailed. This is a must for anyone's breyer collection! The facial expression and the sculpted details are out of this world. I highly recommend this breyer to all collectors.

I think that this model captures the beauty of a running horse. My model is extremely durable, and has never broken any legs or ears, or never even gotten scratched. There is a two paragraph summary of the real Cigar's racing career inside the box. I definitely recommend this model!

I love my Breyer Scamper! He was my very first "collectable" horse and he's still as bright and handsome as when he came out of the box. He stands alone, is pretty durable, and has a great color. Markings and quality will vary SLIGHTLY as each one is hand airbrushed. This handsome bay Classics-scale model is too cool! I should warn that this model sometimes falls down and isn't for rough play!

Scamper is one of my most durable, most realistic, most fun and easy-to-display models. Gentler kids can actually play with Scamper without banging him up too much. Scamper is well painted and he can even stand alone. He comes with a beautiful box explaining his accomplishments so he can be displayed in or out of box. This Breyer is well worth your money! You get a background, story, catolog, barrel, and the horse for a good price.

Learn about real horses through the world of model horses! Scamper the barrel horse is not just a Breyer collectible. Scamper was a real equine athlete who was #1 in his sport, (barrel racing) for 10 years! We are amazed when human athletes can stay on top for that long. What would you think of a horse, who's life span is shorter & physical ability declines must sooner, does this?
Breyer collectible horses are fun & educational. Scamper is a personal favorite of mine because of the rags-to-riches story of his life, and the teenage girl who rode him. The detail on this mold is amazing and I love the personality shown by the model's outstretched upper lip. One of Breyer's newest molds, and part of the Western Performance Series. Look for the other two, the reiner & cutting horse!

This set is awsome! I got it at BreyerFest last year.
If you're lookin' for a durable, fun set, this is the one for you! This is the first color on this beautiful set. It looks almost as though your sittin' whaching and elagant white mare give birth to a handsome chestnut foal!!!! The white mare's name is Susecion, and she is truly a work of art! Light gray shading is around her muscle joints and you can tell that she has a blaze on her face because of the delacate pink shading. And the colt, Le Fire, is just as striking as his dam with four flashy white legs and a blaze! A highly recomended set!

If anyone if looking for a duralbe horse thats lots of fun and wants a rarer horse this is the one for you!

This set is awfully cute but the foal's legs are very fragile and so is his tail. He is in a strugling position. He looks as if he's struggling to stand. The mother's head is down in an encouraging way and looks as if she's trying to help her foal up. Mostly good for a collection and not play.

THIS TOY LOOKS LIKE IT'S LIGHT BUT IT IS'NT.THIS MODEL IS COOL AND THIS MODEL LOOKS JUST LIKE DARKSUNSHINE MY BLACK CLYDESDALE STALLION.I OWN 143 BREYER HORSES AND 63 OTHER ANIMALS.I'M ONLY 11 AND I OWN 789 HORSES.MY FAVIORTE IS MY OWN BIG BLACK MUSTANG STALLION NAMED SPIRIT WHOM IS JET BLACK.SPIRIT US TO BE A LEADER OF WILD MUSTANGS UNTILL I WRANGLED HIM.SPIRIT ONLY LET ME RIDE HIM.

One thing about Breyer Clydesdale's is that they are one of the most durable breyers horses avalible. They can go through a lot of wear and tear and come out with maybe a rub or 2 or maybe a scratch. I highly reccomend this toy. You can do anything with breyers because they are so lifelike you can even hold shows with them!

Flowergirl is a beautiful example of a Clydsdale mare and the only Breyer model horse I've actually met in real life. Of course watching her and her foal eat was fun, along with feeling the ground shake under the hooves of the other horses racing toward the barn. I'm not sure they got her color exactly right, remembering her a bit less red, but that doesn't change the quality of this model. She's a beautiful animal, in the flesh and as a Breyer creation.

Based on PBS's "Nature" this model captures the wild in every horse.When Cloud was born, he was small, fragile and weak. He was always trying to act bigger tahn he was, always playing with the other foals and fillys. Then he grows stronger and becomes leader of his herd. When Cloud loses his herd to cattlemen, he is left alone. But soon finds another herd. This model is a posotive must have!!!

He looks very mean!
Cloud is a little
darker as a model then
he is in the movie. When
he is not rearing, he looks
like he is running. His tail
is creamy white and his mane
has a little bit of red in
it. I have had him and have
been playing ruff with him
ever since Breyerfest 2003.
And he is not broken! I think
Breyer should have put the book
in the box with him. He is great fun!

Cloud: Wild Stallion of the Rockies is a must-have Breyer. If you prefer to have him rearing, or down on all four hooves, Cloud is ready to go for it. Cloud captures the spirit of a wild horse, you can see it in its eyes. It also seems to have skill and determination. A must have for collecters and for those who collect the horses that are the same sculpture as Cloud.

He is so pretty! He's got a tan ribbon on his neck. He can go into any pose you like. He is so soft. Any kid would love him!

I love the Black Stallion books and I would love to put him right next to my collection of the books! He is very easy to form and is just so grand and elegant!

I LOVE THIS FLUFFY TOY!!!JUST LIKE BLACK MY BIG BLACK STALLION SPIRIT WHOM IS A JET BLACK HORSE.I'M 11 AND I OWN 789 HORSES.SPIRIT IS A WILD BIG BLACK STALLION WHOM USE TO BE A WILD LEADER OF MUSTANGS IN HIS LAND.I OWN ABOUT 234 BREYR HORSES AND 34 OTHER ANIMALS.SPIRIT ONLYS LET ME RIDE HIM.

For those of you reading all the reviews, the person who said that War Admiral's real name is Man o' war father of seabiscuit, was in fact incorrect. War Admiral is not seabiscuits father nor is his real name man o' war. War Admiral and Man O' War are TWO DIFFERENT horses. However, both war admiral and seabiscuit are decendants of Man O' War. Seabiscuits father was Hard Tack. Just thought I would clarify that. Anyway, Breyer horses and animals are wonderful, they are durable, educational, collectible, and a lot of fun. Save the more expensive ones for older children who will understand collectible value, but don't hesitate to buy the cheaper classic sized or lower priced traditinals for younger children. My 2 year old plays w/ all my old breyer horses from my childhood, he loves them. =D

War Admirals real name is Man O War father of Seabiscuit. Man O War was the first one to make horse history with a great speed record. This model is a fun horse to play with buy some race tack and have ready to run a race. But be careful with him and other models they can break easyily. Have fun and try not to break him or Seabiscuit they would't like that.

Breyer planned to sculpt this mold long before its merchandising deal with the Seabiscuit marketeers. Why? War Admiral was a Triple Crown Winner with impeccable breeding and a bloodline that has achieved greater immortality than Seabiscuit. Breyer makes a substantial investment in its model horses and therefore chooses only the best of the best. This model does justice to a horse that did much more than lose to Seabiscuit.

My kids love this game so much, I decided to offer it in my online store for horse gifts, horse t-shirts, and now a horse game! My store is called Saddle Happy, and can be found at http://www.saddlehappy.com . I will sell the game for $24.99, so if you are unable to purchase it here, please visit my store and purchase it there. Gallop home is the ONLY board game my kids are playing these days!

Yes! Finally, a good horse game. It is very hard to find a horse game that is fun and not on the computer, but here it is! In Gallop Home, you roll a dice and go around a board, collecting points for training your horse and taking care of it. You can choose from four horse bust pawns, there is a Arabian, Thoroughbred, Freisan, and a Paint. Beautiful little things! They look so lifelike. The board is beautiful and well put toghether, a nice theng to look at. The only downside of this game was that it is just a little confusing, but if you have younger kids, they have simpler rules than the originals, and once you play a full game the rules make sense. Overall, I give this game a 10!

GallopHome is a game for children aged 7-10 years old. We have 2 horse crazy girls who have played GallopHome every day since buying the board game. What a delight. Its a great toy and even better gift for a birthday party.

Seabiscuit is a racehorse who won many races and you see this is Seabiscuit not Man O War. Seabiscut is a great Breyer model and is very fun to play with and will go nicely with race tack to be ready to run a huge race track. P.S Man O War is Seabiscuit's father.

I think seabiscuit would be good for kids 8 and older. Also I think he is good for anyone who loves him. he looks just like seabiscuit.

To me, Breyer horses should be viewed not only toys but rather as collectables. They are quite fragile and scratch and break easily, so they should only be given to kids above age 10. You can buy or even make little accessories such as saddles, bridles, etc. and they are a LOT of fun!

To a true Breyer enthusiast, this horse is well worth the price. This horse, Seabiscuit, is just as good as many other Breyers out there.

I bought this puzzle for my nephews and they simply love it each time they visit me they play with this one puzzle all the time . It is not the pet puzzle it is the one with dinosaurs by Melissa & Doug. It is fantastic the way it holds there interest.

Thankyou

My daughter loves this puzzle, and she is picky about toys and puzzles. The wooden frame is very helpful and the pieces are sturdy and fit together nicely. I bought it for her when she was nearly three.

First of all I am a huge fan of Melissa & Doug BUT this wooden interlocking puzzle has a definite design flaw. The pieces fit very tightly and as the child tries to take them apart the little knobby pieces break off. Within a couple days several pieces had broken which really takes away from the completed picture and makes the puzzle even more difficult. Since most people would buy this puzzle thinking it would be MORE durable being made out of wood I think they would be disappointed for the price.
