The Spirit of Breyer
I think this is not a toy,I think it looks better in a shelf but if you want too play you can but not very hard.I think that in general breyers are not for little children.This Spirit is really beautiful and catchs very the idea of the movie.If you buy Rain they will look wonderful.I have them both.

CHEAP quality, HIGH price
I bought this horse and low and behold one month after purchase, the tail broke off. I have tried to glue it and still won't hold. It is strange, we have about 10 of these horses, foal, and mares. We have 5 that are broken . For the price you pay they should be durable. They are intended for "Play", or so it is advertised that way. I don't think they had children test them. I thought I was doing the right thing buying the more expensive hores for the quality! NOT, I'M DISAPPOINTED!

Very nice toy to look at but for a child to play with, well.
I purchased this for my daughter for Christmas 2002. One week later to the day she was playing with it and not in a very rough manner, the back leg broke.

This was not a cheap horse and I just did not want to purchase another one. My husband with his expertise in repair fixed the leg but it sits on a shelf now and cannot be advised to play with.

The 'Rain' horse seems very strong though.

Amazing Toy!!
Even though I am a Breyers collector and dont play with my models often, I found this toy very durable and amazingly fun!Its very realistic, and every horse lover should have it!It teaches children the atonamy of the horse, and they can re-create their favorite scenes!If they buy Rain along with Spirit, it doubles the fun, and they look priceless on any collectors shelf, or any childs room! Believe me, I have them, so I know!^_^

Great Fencing!
This is a great fence for kids who love to set up plays with barns!(I do) It makes a great pasture or riding arena! (4 stars for edu. because how can a model fence be edu?)It is not really model showing quality however because it not very realistic. I recomend getting this for play and not for showing.

The Little Wooden Fence
The gates and fences are hard to set up and they fall back down easily. Best for modeling not play. ... Read more

Overpriced piece of junk
The good: The truck matches the horse trailer (has a hitch for it). The 8" breyer figures fit inside.

The bad: This truck is made of thin, flimsy plastic. The doors don't stay closed. Mine arrived with misaligned parts that caused the tailgate to keep falling off. I had to take the thing apart and readjust all the screws. My wife told the kids not to use the steering wheel, tailgate, or hood because it looks like it'll fall apart if they do. What's the point?

My advice: buy a remote control truck the same size, which will be half the price, and make a hitch for the trailer. It'll me much more fun, and you'll only have to worry about the trailer breaking (but that's a different review :). ... Read more

Fitting Tribute to a Great Horse
I own this piece as part of my Triple Crown set including Slew and Secretariat and I just love it. Every muscle, shadow and ripple in his mane and tail are picked out in excellent detail. This is the only piece of Affirmed memorabilia I have in which his mane is loose and not braided as he wore it in his races. The pose shows him just "being a horse", it's really nice. A nice addition to anyone's collection. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Poised in midstride, this beautiful Bay Pinto has well-defined muscles, a flowing mane andtail, glossy black eyes, and an incredibly lifelike face. Although it may besomewhat difficult for very young children to balance, this model offers a realistic stance and thedurability to withstand lots of rough play. Measuring 10 inches tall and 11 inches long, it is modeled fromdurable cellulose acetate plastic and lovingly airbrushed for a vivid appearance. A wonderful additionto any collection of Breyer horses. --Tami Horiuchi ... Read more

Champion of Imagination
This horse model lets you use your imagination to explore. Open up a world of : Show Jumping, Cross Country , and Dressage. Or create a world of your own , full of wild horses! These horses seem to come alive as you play adventures with them. They are so durable, educational, and , of course, FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If your a horse lover these are the perfect toys!! :) HORSES RULE!!!!

This Horse Is Gorgourges!
Being a Breyer collecter almost all of my life, I would like to say that this toy is great! It is so unique in every way and it is the perfect mold for a show horse! This toy is not only fun to play with, but it is also very durable and strong. I think that this toy is educational for the horse-lover's mind. I shows us what a certin kind of horse would look like without them having to buy one.

brilliant, realistic model!
This model is beautiful. each model is hand painted, and looks unique. these breyer models are hich quality and worth the money, but since there are some very weak parts of the model (like legs and tail) you have to be careful. Don't get it wrong, these are pretty strong. They are not exactly fragile or anything.... but overall pretty durable. It is also totally educational. The box comes with the name of the breed of horse, (in this case Bay Pinto) and its realistic features really help you learn about that particular breed and what it looks like. The thing i love about this model and all other breyer models is the close resemblance to the real thing. These are not cheesy barbie horses with cheap plastic and eyelashes... This could hardly be called a toy. It is something that adults could collect, and put around the house as decoration. Great for all ages!

don't have it yet..but will soon
As a person who has collected Breyers all my life, I can see the changes that Breyer has made with the horses that are sculptered. They look more realistic, and very detailed. I will always collect them, all though I do have real horse of my own, Breyers make great gifts for kids and grownups who live in the city or cannot afford a horse.

An excellent depiction of this marvellous breed
Breyer's National Show Horse is very pretty, and can help children learn about horses and their anatomy, as long as a knowledgeable adult can point out the model's physical points such as withers, hocks, hooves, etc. Believe me, though, if you get a child this model, they will definitely want more Breyer models! ...

Black Horse
This stallion is very pretty. His mane looks like it's flowing in the summer breeze. He has his front leg raised high above the ground proudly. This is a great looking horse. He is a new edition. ... Read more

Neat for any Breyer Collector!
This Breyer vet is neat! She comes with syringe, medicine tub, thermometer, vet case, and stethoscope. This is educational because it teaches how to care for a horse's health and is fun because kids like dolls. However, the vet doesn't stand even on a hard surface and sometimes the joints get loose. The tiny thermometer and syringe are constantly getting lost.
