Vintage Club Rustler

I have gotten a lot of new models that I have yet to post about. Most are still in their boxes and stacked in my office waiting to be opened. In addition to those, my BreyerFest models will soon be delivered by Barn Buddy Kelsie, and they, too, will need to be opened, photographed, and documented. 

So heads up and fair warning - upcoming blog posts will be heavy on new models.


Rustler, the third offering from the 2023 Vintage Club, arrived in June.


I am not a fan of pintos, but Rustler's paint job is nicely done.

Black is my favorite horse color, so if it must be a pinto, a black pinto is preferred over other pinto colors in my book.


Even better, Rustler is a music box and plays Home on the Range! Have a listen.


I like the retro design of the insert that was in Rustler's box with him. One of these comes with each Vintage Club piece.


I grew up watching Fury on television and read all the Fury books when I was a little girl. (I still have them.)


The Vintage Club boxes are not like the usual Breyer boxes.


In this case, they gave the box a 1950s feel through the colors, fonts, and general design.


The sides of the box.


The bottom.


And the top of the box.

Despite not being especially fond of pintos, this is one of my favorite offerings from the Vintage Club since its inception. That music box makes it truly a unique model in the club.

Well done, Breyer!
