I have animals on my mind most of the time. That's in part because I have eleven of them living in my house, but also because I spend my days at work taking care of another hundred or so homeless creatures. But I also just like thinking about animals, especially horses. The impressive size and graceful movement of horses has always been spellbinding to me. Realistic 1:9 model horses like those made by the Breyer company are able to capture a lot of the things that I find so beautiful about horses, and so I've always admired them (and also reviewed them a few times). I was even more obsessed with Breyer models when I was a kid, and amassed a collection that covered an entire wall of my room.
Back in March, when I wrote the Horse Foal Surprise review, I was reminded of how much I enjoy model horses. That inspired me to do some investigating into what 1:6 scale horse options are available these days. And my research turned out to be timely, as you'll see, because of something exciting that happened to Lena.
