    I’m so glad you spoke about the original owner, and so thoughtfully. As collectors, sometimes we don’t think about what will happen to our collections when we pass. There are stories behind every purchase or acquisition, and I think she would be glad to have her models be in loving homes.

    UPDATE: The remaining models have all been picked up by a local collector! :)
    We are currently still working on getting the rest of the models I couldn't take home to a new owner! There are about 200 Traditional and Classic scale models left. If you live near Seattle, Washington and are interested in doing a local pick-up, send me a direct message through social media or email me (my email is under the "about" section of my youtube channel) and I'll get you more information! :)

      Is there any way they could be shipped do you think? I’d love to look at the remaining ponies if they could be shipped!

      What great luck you have had to find through your friend such a great opportunity.... And I'm glad, that her collection weren't thrown away and got a new good home. And I hope the rest will do as well.
      I wished I would live nearby, but I don't....

    bro the number of good film ponies there...ugh...dream. I also really love getting to hear the stories behind the models I buy, so it is SO cool that you get to help document and immortalize Judy. I wonder if Breyer has any records of 2008 BreyerFest volunteers? Not sure if they'd be willing to confirm her attendance, but I would love Breyer to recognize her for her wonderful collection!

    I absolutely love this. Thank you for rescuing that collection and sharing her story. This video is so heart warming it brought me to tears. I hope that someday my models will go to a fellow collector after I pass on. I also hope that someday I get to do the same and take over a fellow collectors cherished memories.

    Look forward to learning more and seeing subsequent videos of this amazing collection! 😊👍

    I think when I am old I will sell most of my horses myself. It will hurt, but there is no one in my family who knows about value and loves breyer or schleich the way I do. I better look for younger collectors than than the horses ending up as kids toys.😅 I also like to keep most of my traditionals new in box

      Hello! If you placed the order, it should still be sent to you, but I have no idea on how soon it could arrive. You can check your Breyer account history to see if a tracking number has been added to the order yet, otherwise it sounds like something you'd have to call Breyer about.
