Need I say more? There is a lot of confusion about this gorgeous glossy guy. He's a "brick and mortar" store only (not sold in online stores), supposedly a very limited run, no one knows how many there will be and everyone is kind of freaking out about it...
Personally, if he was a solid dunalino, I would be determined beyond all sanity to get one. The appaloosa markings kind of dim my gotta-have-it impulse a little bit, I think they make him look a little overdone, a little bit too much. But that's just me. I have wanted a dunalino Breyer model for a while (I love the color on real horses) but none of them have been the "right" color of dunalino (still looking for the perfectly shaded Hollywood Gold) or I couldn't afford them (Music City).
Honestly, I think this guy will be a lot like the Autumn model from a few years back. I guess he was a dealer special, in-store only horse too. I don't remember seeing him anywhere around here. Utah doesn't exactly have the best selection of model horses. If I get lucky enough to spot one of these guys somewhere, I'll probably buy him. But if I don't, I'm pretty sure I won't be heartbroken... He's one of those models that is very attractive and will either grow on me, or I'll get less interested as time goes on. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens with this one.
I have heard alot about this horse, and really, I think he might be just slightly overrated...I think the colour suits the mold, and as you say, if I came across one I would probably get it (but i'm not, because I know he won't be coming to New Zealand!!!) but I don't think I would go out and specifically get him.
