Their low cost model horses are some of the best designed in the business. Breyer manufactures more than 5 million models of all types per year..

Of the themed animal models that are in the collectibles hobby, Breyer horses are some of the more popular types. Over the years, many companies have attempted to copy Breyer Horse molds. Genuine Breyer animal models have distinctive brands to identify them. Breyer horses are typically stamped on the inside of a back leg or somewhere inconspicuous on the underside of the body. There generally will be a copyright mark with the words “Breyer Molding Company” or “Breyer Reeves”, Typically the date only appears on the small scale Stablemates.

Breyer horses are produced in four main sizes. The biggest is called Traditional and they typically range in size, but are normally around 9 inches in height. This is their 1:9 scale. The next smaller line of horses is the Classic size. Typically they are about 7 inches high in 1:12 scale.

Making your Breyer horse unique is a fun part of collecting. There are many articles available on customizing a Breyer horse . One of the easiest places to begin is doing a new paint job. It can be done in a fairly simple manner with a typical Breyer horse.

Breyer model Horse Model collecting began in the late 1950’s when the Breyer Manufacturing Company ended up with an unused lot of plastic clock bases that were in the shape of a horse. A large hobby manufacturer, Reeves International, bought out the Breyer company in the early 1990’s. They targeted the model horse figurines more on collecting, accessories and games. Collectors still buy the Breyer horse models, particularly in special runs and limited editions. These are produced in smaller lot sizes, making them more attractive to the collectors. A big show is Breyerfest. It is the company’s yearly global collector event and is typically held each July in Lexington, Kentucky.

A fun part of the hobby is photographing model horses in realistic settings so they look like a real horse. Taking photos of the model horses is a super way to participate in model horse photo shows, but it can also help you sell your models at a higher price. It is most advantageous to photograph your model horses in a outdoor setting. Typical indoor light will make the pictures appear washed out and fake.
