New York, NY – October 26, 2023 – Apollo Eight LLC, a New York-based company dedicated to bringing unique and collectible items to enthusiasts, is excited to announce its growing selection of beautifully crafted Breyer resin model horses. Located at 590 Madison Ave, Apollo Eight is quickly becoming a go-to source for collectors and horse lovers alike, offering a curated range of these iconic, hand-painted figurines. For decades, Breyer has been synonymous with quality and artistry in the world of model horses. And Apollo Eight is making these treasured pieces even more accessible. “We really believe these aren’t just toys, they’re pieces of art,” says a representative from Apollo Eight. “They tap into a real passion for horses and a love of collecting. We’re thrilled to be able to offer such a fantastic range to our customers.” What are Breyer Model Horses? If you’re new to the world of Breyer, you’re in for a treat. These aren't your typical plastic toy horses. Breyer began in the 1950s, originally crafting realistic plastic horse figures as decorative weights for model train layouts. But people fell in love with the detail and realism, and a hobby was born. Today, Breyer Model Horses are made from a durable resin, meticulously sculpted and hand-painted. What sets Breyer apart? It’s a few things. First, the attention to detail is incredible. Sculptors capture the musculature, posture, and personality of real horses with amazing accuracy. Then there’s the hand-painting. Each horse is individually painted, meaning no two are exactly alike. This creates a truly unique collectible. They also come in a huge range of breeds, colors, and poses. From majestic Arabians to powerful draft horses, there’s a Breyer for everyone. Apollo Eight’s Selection – Something for Every Collector Apollo Eight doesn’t just stock any Breyer horses; they've carefully selected a range to appeal to both seasoned collectors and newcomers. “We try to offer a nice mix – popular breeds, limited editions, and some of the more unique color variations," explains the Apollo Eight team. “We’ve got horses for display, horses for showing (yes, people actually show their Breyer horses!), and horses just to enjoy.” Currently, Apollo Eight’s inventory includes: Traditional Scale Horses: These are the most popular size, approximately 1:9 scale, representing a realistic horse size. They’re great for displaying and posing. Apollo Eight boasts a strong selection of these, spanning various breeds like American Quarter Horses, Thoroughbreds, and Friesians. Foals & Young Horses: Adorable miniature versions perfect for collectors who love the charm of young animals. These make great additions to any display, and often feature sweet, playful poses. Limited Edition Models: These are highly sought after by serious collectors. Limited editions are produced in smaller quantities, making them rare and valuable. Apollo Eight regularly receives new limited edition releases, so it’s worth checking their website or contacting them directly. Special Run Models: Sometimes Breyer will create a “special run” of a popular model with a unique color or finish. These are often available for a limited time and quickly become collector’s items. Pastel & Gloss Finish Horses: These horses have a unique finish that adds to their collectibility. Pastel finishes are soft and dreamlike while gloss finishes add a shimmering elegance. Realistic & Fantasy Colors: Apollo Eight offers a diverse range of colors, from realistic bay, chestnut, and black to more fantastical shades like dapple gray, buckskin, and even pearlescent whites. “We're always adding new pieces to our collection," the Apollo Eight team confirms. "We pay close attention to what collectors are looking for and try to source horses that are both beautiful and collectible.” Why Collect Breyer Horses?
