Ruuuuuuuuuuun!!! The Birds!!!

 


Scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds, 1963.  Or maybe it’s from the Ninja Pit of Death.  


Ooooooo, that’s a dramatic beginning now, isn’t it?  In the January 2021 Collector Club Newsletter Breyer showed us a sneak peek square of a new Web Special theme for 2021:


This glossy black hint had collectors speculating as usual.  It certainly wasn’t Lafayette, the glossy black Collector Club Web Special, since we have already seen him (as of this writing he has not been released).   

Today Breyer revealed the new theme and the new Web Special-meet Puffin, the first model from  Breyer’s Birds of a Feather web series!





Limited to 380 pieces, Puffin is a sabino spotted draft mare done on the Wixom mold...with a glossy finish!  Breyer has made the change from entering daily to entering once during the entry period for the lottery draw.  I am very interested to see how the rest of the series flies (dumb pun time).  




Here is some puffin humor in honor of the new web series:

  1. Hahahahaha. That second cartoon had me laughing out loud. Thanks for the chuckle. I didn't win one, did you?

  2. I wasn’t drawn for one either. I am hoping to be on the waitlist, but not gonna hold my breath. I am not planning on seeking her out on the secondary market. It seems that she will be one of those models that people will tend to keep in their collections and not be for sale often. But who knows, it’s hard to predict.
